July 2025 · by George, VP Product

 

Goals & Planning Panel Improvements

Full tree drag & drop functionality

You can now drag and drop issues at any level within the Goals & Planning panel to reorganize your work hierarchy. This makes it much easier to restructure your projects and maintain the right organization as priorities change. Need to move an Epic from release 1.0 to 1.5? Drag and drop it!

Better real-time updates

Enhanced real-time updates for Goals & Planning panel issues, ensuring the data you see is always current across different views and workflows.

Improved deep hierarchy support

Planning Panel trees that are more than 6 levels deep now display properly, giving you full visibility into complex project structures.

Timeline View Enhancements

Fixed dependency line positioning

We've resolved issues with dependency lines not displaying correctly in the Timeline view, making it easier to visualize relationships between your work items.

Improved date setting via drag & drop

Fixed several bugs that were preventing you from properly setting start and end dates by dragging issues in the Timeline view.

Issue Management Updates

Better breadcrumbs

We've updated the breadcrumb navigation to make it easier to understand where you are in your issue hierarchy and navigate back to parent issues.

And more!

• Restored the close button functionality for ZenHub flyovers to improve navigation experience.
• We've optimized when and how parent issue data is loaded.
• Resolved issues with how end dates were being set for automatically created non-templated sprints.
