It would be great if the time identifiers showing how old the cards are would be color coded based on how old/stale the card is. It would make it very easy to identify most recent (most old) cards.
This is how Trello approaches it (but they color code the entire card, which seems a bit too much)
What colors would you use? What time buckets would you use?
(I know youāre referring to the time indicators, so that wouldnāt be possible with the current API)
Maybe a gradient of some sort? I donāt think I have a preference on actual colors.
In terms of a time frame maybe:
Would it need a time frame if you could set a two color gradient? Maybe thatās more intensive, but we have a place to go for setting default colors, so each user could add their āaging colorsā there and let Kinopio set colors based on the gradient and oldest/newest cards.
yeah youād still need a total time to determine how far along the gradient to go. The other problem with gradients is that it can be hard to differentiate close shades, although maybe thatās fine bc youād still have a rough idea
ya iād probably just have this affect the time indicators that you see if you hit 2
forgot to update this thread:
cards created/updated within the last day have blue date indicators
Iāve been thinking about this feature a lotā¦ any possibility this function could be added for a handful of time thresholds?
Iād love to be able to view an entire board at once and in a glance know which cards need attention.
Iām thinking of it in terms of my businessāIām exploring treating my business as a garden rather than an assembly line. I plant seeds, water, and tend different parts of the garden while it grows.
Often, I forget entire parts of my āgardenāāhaving an overview of my entire business in Kinopio makes a lot of sense; if there were a way to quickly see (color-based) which areas have been tended to lately and which havenāt, I think that could be really useful.
So youād use card aging to identify which of your cards is old right? What would define old for your use case?
You can enable the card date filter by pressing ā2ā to see card all ages. But only cards edited in the last day are highlighted in the filter
Is this still appropriate buckets?
Iād say something like:
7d
14d
60d
90d
6mo
1yr (at most)
If each was an obvious color, Iād know right away what needed tending.
The problem w differentiating bw so many diff states w color alone is either:
For reference imagine the trello example with more than 3 aged states
I agree. Even a 7day and 30day would be useful.
repoening feature request for later work . any thoughts on how these diff age states should be visually represented in the card badge?
