Revert to old Planner?
I'd also like to revert to the old Planner. My issues are mainly two:
- The "Assigned to me" view, which I use 95% of the time, was worsened. On the old Planner I could choose a Board/Kanban view and group tasks by Due Date. This was perfect, because then I could view the tasks due today, due tomorrow, due this week and due in the near future (the green are on the image below). Now, I only have a overwhelming list view which doesn't help me focus on the tasks that are due soon. The Kanban/Board view is still available inside each Plan but this doesn't solve the problem because my tasks span multiple Plans. I need a unified view where I can see all my Assigned tasks in all Plains, and I need the Kanban/Board view so I easily prioritize by due date.
- On the old Planner (which was always on Board/Kanban view) I could simply click a task to view its details. Now, I can no longer click on the name of the card (on list view is all I have), I need to move my mouse cursor to the right side of the screen and then click on a tiny post-it icon. And for some reason, the comments aren't even loading.
Please let us go back to the old Planner!
Old - and better - version:
New - and worse - version:
I agree with this completely, there are some good changes made however the Assigned to me or My tasks view has now taken a massive step backwards is now cluttered and confusing without buckets. There is also no Calendar view. Come On Microsoft please reinstate the Bucket View in the my tasks view, not too hard given it's there in each plan..........
Okay so what you have to do is go to a specific board and then one of the NEW filters is "Assignment" and then you can select yourself. I'm not sure if this is the end solution but it's something I've found!
Oh yes, I am doing this, but unfortunately I work out of across about 6 different plans so I have to trawl through each one individually now, whereas before in "my tasks" I could manage them all in one convenient place.
