How to see assignees in planning board

David Triebwass

September 23, 2012

I don't want to create swimlanes for each assignee and I've already color coded for assignees, but it would be nice to see their name in the PLAN section while I'm viewing sprints and backlogs. Even in WORK section it would be nice to see a name instead of the avatar picture.

Is there a way to configure what is displayed in PBI's?

Hi David,

Unfortunately, it is not possible to display the Assignee name on the Plan mode of the new boards. There's an improvement request being tracked at GHS-5104. I suggest you add yourself as a watcher to be notified of future updates.

Cheers,

Clarissa.
