Provide a link to parent/child tasks as a search result from task graphs Authored by epriestley on Jul 28 2016, 8:29 PM. Tags None Referenced Files

Details Ref T4788. Add links to jump to search results with a task's parents or subtasks. This allows relationships to remain useful if there are a zillion of them, and you can sort/filter stuff more easily. Language might need some tweaking at some point, feeling a little un-brainy today with wordstuff.

Event TimelineComment Actions It also might not be terrible to make the empty state two big "View Subtasks" and "View Parent Tasks" buttons, but I don't think we have any similar elements anywhere and suspect that would look bizarre if I cobbled it together: +--------------------------------------------------+ | Task Graph [ .o Search... ] | +--------------------------------------------------+ | There are too many tasks, but you can [ View | | Subtasks ] or [ View Parent Tasks ] if you want! | +--------------------------------------------------+ I suppose I could just link them if I really get excited about building this. Comment Actions Yeah, I think it's mostly for the "we linked 235 tasks, for GREAT reasons which are SECRET which we CAN NEVER TELL YOU" cases from T4788, where the task is really being used like a tag. "Search Subtasks" is really, like "Search For Tasks Tagged With This Task", I guess. I think this is the best/most reasonable thing we can do if a task has 200 subtasks, and it didn't take too much work to build, I just haven't seen any really good use cases for doing this. Not too inclined to spend much effort chasing this down since I think our behavior is reasonable now and the use case isn't too compelling. |
