List View
This post is also available in: Deutsch
In this article:
Overview
The List view is a type of space view. The cards are displayed as separate rows in a vertical list format. The List view is often used when a more detailed and structured representation of tasks is required. It’s a great option for tablet and mobile users.
While the most common way to organize a KanBo space is horizontal card grouping (Kanban view), with columns representing the different stages of a workflow and cards representing the tasks, the List view allows you to organize your cards vertically instead.
The following example shows the List view with the grouping by users option. The cards are grouped and displayed as separate rows in a vertical list format.
Example: Cards grouped by users in the List view.
This can be useful in some cases, such as when a workflow has a large number of steps or when the steps are more complex and require more detailed breakdowns.
It is a good option if your cards contain a lot of detail. The List view gives you a better understanding of the tasks. This is a more card-oriented view. Using vertical lanes can make it a little bit easier to see the relations between cards and understand how they fit into the overall structure of the workflow.
See how to expand subcards with display settings. Display settings allow you also to group and sort cards in List view in a variety of ways.
Try also to combine horizontal and vertical grouping of cards into a two-dimensional card grouping way called Kanban Swimlanes.
Creating cards in the List view
To create a card:
- On the chosen grouping field, select the “+” icon at the top of the field.
- Enter the name of the card.
- Optionally you can select a card template, add a start and due date, or add card users.
- Select Create card.
Example: Creating cards in the List view.
