LABELS
Along with the other's stating more Label colors, it would be nice to have the label color show in the schedule view (more visual).
Currently you can filter by label, but it doesn't color code by label (shows all items white on schedule view). The only time color shows up when an items is "Late", and then it's highlighted Red.Would also be nice to re-order the labels instead of ROYGBIV order.

Add calendar settings options (first day of a week and date format)
There should be an option to choose which data format to display in tasks and in Schedule. Month number followed by a day number is not a standard for Europe. The same for first day of a week (for me it is definitely Monday not Sunday). I would like to be able to change these settings.

Gannt view
This app needs a Gannt view, and more than that you should be able to group tasks by team member. All the tasks assigned to John for example. This App needs work for continual service based organisations

Have schedule view to show not only week and month, but also for 3 month to 6 month views, similar to Microsoft Project.
Basically when viewing tasks in the schedule view, it would be useful if i can view not only in weekly or monthly, but also across the entire task duration of say 3 to 6 months. This kid of view is already available in Microsoft Project, and gives an easy and quick view of various tasks across the project timeline.

Sub-task due dates
While a plan has a final due date there are interim tasks (sub-tasks) that must get completed for the entire plan to achieve its state due date completed.
For that
Each sub-tasks should get assigned to specific people with their due dates.
Those subtasks must show up in their individual to-dos so that they know what they are working on. (this part is done
If the change their due date then the team could know if the overall task will be completed in time.
Therefore please add the option to create due dates & assignments on the subtasks. It is…

Make completed Tasks be crossed out instead of disappear from the schedule calendar.
When a task is completed it disappears from the calendar. It would be nice to still see it on the calendar but crossed out because when it disappears I don't remember the exact dates it was completed.

Single day view in schedule
Allow the Schedule view to show a single day. Board view shows today/tomorrow and then bundles the rest of the week in a single bucket. Sometimes we want to look at details for a specific date to see what is planned.
The week view is nice but a lot of the important details are not see until you select the task itself.

I would like to be able to see all tasks due during the week in the schedule mode instead of seeing (+4, or +6) more.
I can see in the schedule portion that I have certain tasks that are due. Example on 10/30, Open a new work order.
If I want to see all the tasks due that day, I have to click the link for "+6 More." I would prefer if it showed all task that day. Or at least having the option to do so.18 votes -
