Better visual grouping of swimlane rows to indicate they are related
Release notes
This is more visual polish than anything, so I am not sure it would warrant a release post item unless we want to highlight our continual improvement of swimlanes.
Problem to solve
- How might we better group a swimlane title with its corresponding work items?
- How might we better group swimlane work items together?
User feedback:
A Swimlane usually has a horizontal flow. This is a bit missing in the current design. I looks a bit more like individual cells in an Excel sheet. Would it be possible to connect the “cells” of one row a bit?
Intended users
- Parker (Product Manager)
- Delaney (Development Team Lead)
- Presley (Product Designer)
- Sasha (Software Developer)
- Rachel (Release Manager)
User experience goal
Users can better parse the swimlane and work item groupings.
Proposal
TBD
Ideas:
- Reduce bottom space between a swimlane title and the columns of work items
- Add some visual treatment around each swimlane or columns of work items to better correlate them as a row as well.
