No More Ghosting

Default Inbox Decks

Every user can now set a default inbox deck: when creating a new card from the Hand or Milestones tab, this deck will be automatically pre-selected. You can pick your default inbox deck in the the top bar of an opened deck. Hovering over the button will also show you who else is currently using this deck as default inbox.

You might use this to default your cards towards a specific work deck that you tend to work in (e.g. the “Code” deck if you’re a programmer). Or you might use it to default your new cards towards a project inbox from where they are then moved into fitting decks.

Our goal is to make adding cards more convenient and less error-prone. Let us know what you think!

Manual Sorting Milestones

Milestones now support the “Manual” sorting order, which was previously restricted to decks only. We made this the default sort order for milestones.

Options for color-blind card colors

In order to improve Codecks’ accessibility, we’re introducing three new workflow state color palettes for users with Protanopia, Protanomaly and Deuteranopia. They can be selected from Mission Control > Your Profile. This is a per-user setting.

We also made some slight adjustments to the default palette, most notably unassigned cards have a brighter color than before.

More fixes and improvements

• Quick Tips: When creating a new card, the template card text will now show a random quick tip on how to use Codecks.
• Updated Icons: As we’re streamlining our design language, we’ve updated a few icons: the ones found in the side panel buttons of the card view, some milestone interactions and Due Dates.
• Doc Card Improvements: Hero Cards consisting only of Doc Cards now get a dedicated Doc Hero Card look. Also Doc Cards (and Doc Hero Cards) are now handled correctly in milestones and don’t count towards the milestone’s progress. To find out more about Doc Cards make sure to check out the brand new entry on our Manual.
• Creating a card with a milestone in a deck that isn’t allowed by that milestone’s project restrictions will now result in an error message.
• We’ve renamed all occurrences of Card Status to Workflow state to be consistent.
• Moving a journey step to a different deck removes its dependencies.
• Fixed issue where you could not access cards of cloned projects.
• Fixed issue where downgrading a user to observer in one org limited their access right in their other orgs.
• Fixed crash when opening media library in a new organization.
• Much stricter API validation of data passed to endpoints. If you pass a number where a string was expected, for example, you’ll receive an error message hinting at the wrong field and type.
