NOTE: This Task is not about "Allowing users to rename a Milestone" - since this is already possible, just like any other Project can be renamed. This Task is only about having this action more accessible from a Workboard.
If you love Milestones, you probably have noticed that, if you click on the {nav icon=pencil, name=Edit} Edit menu on a Milestone, from its Workboard, like in this screenshot:
{F253457, size=full}
Then you areThis is then not able to edit its name. For example, this edit page of a Milestone (see that there is the edit page of a normal Column://not// the Name text field):
{F25345860, size=full}
ThisAnd this is the edit page of a Milestone (see that there is not the Name text field):normal Column instead:
{F25346058, size=full}
So, to edit the name of a Milestone, at the moment, users must know the internal difference between normal Columns and Milestones, to then understand that a Milestone is handled as a Project, and so, its name must be changed from the Project edit form.
Anyway, changing a Milestone column takes a lot of steps:
- click on the Milestone name
- click on Manage
- click on Edit Details
- change the name
- Save
TL;DR this Task is just about trying to have more visual uniformity in a Workboard, and so, an user should be able to rename a Milestone, just as quickly as any other normal Column (if the user has permissions to do soq).
== Proposed change ==
When the user is on a Workboard, trying to edit a Milestone; instead of showing just the Points, we could show also a "Milestone Name" field, like in this proposed solution:
{F253462, size=full}
(As proof of concept I'm also showing that the Milestone name validation shouldmust be functional, in case. ↑)
Please compare the new Milestone edit form above, with the already-existing Column edit form below:
{F253458, size=full}
I think this is a thing that several users expect.Is it nice for your? And I think we can achieve this goal.Share a comment!
