Schedule view - all of a sudden, tasks are white?
Looks like it's been fixed:
Overdue tasks are red, on a white background.
Regular tasks are grey, on a white background.
Thanks to whoever fixed!
It still looks white to me. Are you sure it has been fixed? Is ther a workaround?
- About a month ago, the completed tasks were green, in progress or not started in grey, and overdue on red. Now the completed tasks turn grey, not green. Anyone else notice this?
- I have been seeing this for the last couple of days. I'm also seeing previous tasks colored red in the calendar view, even though they are completed. It's all messed up.
The only update I see in Message Center related to this change in Planner could be the Planner tasks storage location update but it doesn't show anything directly. Maybe because the tasks are now also stored in exchange mailboxes it affected the coloring?
How this will affect your organization:
A secondary copy of Planner tasks which are assigned to at least one user will be stored in the user’s Exchange mailbox. If a task is assigned to multiple users, each user will have a copy of the task stored inside their individual mailbox. Unassigned tasks will not be copied to a mailbox.
For end users, existing To Do, Planner, and Outlook Task experiences will remain the same.
This update supports our work to add Planner tasks to eDiscovery and to build deeper integrations between To Do and Planner.
What you need to do to prepare:
There are no changes to end user experiences for the Planner or To Do apps. Planner tasks assigned to users will automatically start appearing as part of existing eDiscovery experiences.
