GQueues gives you the tools to make sure everything you need to complete a task lives right within the task itself. Depending on your work, some of that information will be more relevant than others. You can choose to show or hide different parts of a task so you only see what’s relevant to the task at hand.
Show or hide task properties for a single task
Once information has been added to a task, you can also hide it by clicking the icon again. For instance, if you want to hide attachments and assignments so you can focus in on reading the notes for a task, just click the attachment and assignment icon again to hone in on the information that's relevant to you right now.
You'll still have a visual indicator that data is hidden because the icons will still be visible. Just click them again to show the information. And the next time you return to the queue, all task information will display based on your default settings.
Show or hide task properties for all tasks in a queue
While viewing a queue, you can adjust which parts of the tasks are shown or hidden. This will affect all tasks in that queue. If you leave the queue and return to it later, GQueues will remember the expanded or collapsed state of each task property. The exceptions are assignments and date created. Those will always be shown according to your default settings.
Select the Show/Hide dropdown menu and choose the attributes you want to show or hide for all tasks in that queue.
When viewing a queue in Board view, task information is displayed much more compactly than in List view, so the Show/Hide menu will only give you the option to show or hide subtasks.
Set default view for task properties across all queues
Whenever you load a queue, the parts of the task that are visible or hidden depend on your default preferences. The information you choose to show in your settings will apply to all queues in your account. For most task properties, these defaults only apply for when you first load a queue. Once you make a change, GQueues will remember whether that property is expanded or collapsed on a task-by-task basis. However assignments and date created will always show based on your default preferences when you load the queue.
To set your default preferences, navigate to the Queues tab of your Settings. Under Display select what task attributes you want to show by default when opening a queue.
👉 Pro Tip: You can also access these settings by selecting Set defaults from the Show/hide dropdown menu:
If data doesn’t exist for a particular task, those properties will appear blank. In the queue below, each task contains different information based on available data. However all tasks show all assignments, tags, and notes when available. You can rest assured knowing GQueues will show all information available according to your preferences. 😊
