These release updates are specific to the Swimlane Beta. We are actively tracking all other release notes for Strategic Roadmaps in our Release Notes section of the Help Center.
November 11 - November 22
NEW FEATURE Empty states for roadmaps are now live and provide users with quick actions to start creating, building, and updating their roadmaps.
ENHANCEMENT We’ve reduced the size of the context menu on cards and adjusted the ellipsis (icon) to run horizontally instead of vertically, based on user feedback.
BUG FIXES Our team resolved an issue where the undo functionality was not working as expected after dragging items into another cell on the Swimlane Beta.
ENHANCEMENT The Legend component has received some small quality-of-life updates:
A newer, easier to locate button has been set for the Legend component
We’ve added a tooltip to the button as well, to help users understand what it does
Text sizes and weights inside the legend have been adjusted to improve readability
The Legend will no longer automatically close when you try to scroll in the roadmap
ENHANCEMENT Text in the headers on the roadmap have been spaced out a little bit more, based on some readability concerns we’ve received from users working on larger screens.
ENHANCEMENT We’ve reduced some of the on-hover movement for cards, in order to prevent the Swimlane from appearing erratic as you’re mousing over the screen.
ENHANCEMENT We’ve adjusted how our virtualization calculates row heights during the initial roadmap load. This means that roadmaps will no longer appear to jump or flash as you navigate your view.
NEW FEATURE The toggle to show a preview window for published roadmaps is now active, with live previews of your customizations and a fully interactive version of the roadmap.
ENHANCEMENT We’ve adjusted some styling for the Add Sub-Item button on the Swimlane card - making it appear more round and closer to the style of the button in the Sub-Items menu.
October 28 - November 8
ENHANCEMENT Swimlane Cards are now less rounded and have a solid color tab on the left, similar to legacy. Based on user feedback, this should make the items' colors easier to see on the roadmap.
NEW FEATURE Roadmap items in the Swimlane Beta can now have two types of titles:
Multi-Line Titles show the title across two lines, to let users surface more of their longer item names within in the visualization.
Single-Line Titles show the title on one line, and can marquee longer titles on hover to show the rest of the item name without adding extra space to the roadmap.
ENHANCEMENT We’ve made some slight changes to the header text for columns and rows, to improve readability and positioning of the header labels in both Standard and Compact modes.
NEW FEATURE Styles for our axis labels have been updated to make them less visually intrusive on the overall view and they can now be interacted with, with similar options to the axis labels in our legacy Swimlane.
BUG FIXES Our team has resolved a bug where certain roadmaps with custom palettes generated by Templates were causing the roadmapping toolbars to be hidden.
BUG FIXES Our team resolved another issue where roadmap publishes weren’t processing as expected for newly-created Swimlane roadmaps.
BUG FIXES We’ve made some updates for any Archived Roadmaps using the new Swimlane Beta to prevent users from using context menus in the UI.
ENHANCEMENT Based on user feedback, the Item Details menu will now show all counts for Comments, Linked Items, Attachments, and Key Dates, even if the count is zero.
