YouTrack Adds More Design Improvements

Project overview pages now offer advanced project-centric navigation, with all project information closer to the main YouTrack menu. Using the left-hand sidebar, you can access issues, articles, and boards related to the project and manage project settings more efficiently. Additionally, you can create new tasks or articles within a selected project directly from the project overview page.

If you manage multiple projects simultaneously, switching between contexts is now easier. A project drop-down list has been added to the clickable hierarchy path for project overview pages, so you no longer need to return to the project list.

The improved project creation wizard now includes templates tailored to specific team needs. You can start with the simplified Task Management template for general needs, or use the advanced Project Management template when you need to track various work types and time spent. The Marketing template is designed to classify tasks by marketing activity, campaign focus, channel, and more.

Every YouTrack now includes a single default dashboard that is visible to all users in your organization, as well as external guests if your YouTrack settings allow for them. You can use it as a central hub for your organization, displaying notes, reports, and other useful information on one page. Only administrators have permission to edit the default dashboard.

Visualize complex projects with graphs that display hierarchical dependencies of issue links.

Simplify development processes by managing multiple sprints in one place.

Send email reminders for one-time alerts or recurring task actions.

Add a timer to tasks so you can flexibly track and log the time you spend on your work.

Move logged time between tasks with ease and specify whether it is billable.

Embed iframe-based websites as dashboard widgets or within Markdown content.

Copy and move articles along with their sub-articles within the Knowledge Base.

Present or review article content as automatically formatted slideshows.

Customize task content and share it by printing it or exporting it as a PDF file.

Creating new dashboards and articles in YouTrack just got faster. You can now clone an existing dashboard and tailor it to fit your personal, team, or customer needs. We've also added a Clone Article workflow that you can either attach to your projects as-is or customize as needed.

You can now specify which values are displayed for a given field based on previously submitted task information. For example, you can configure the Location field to display only options in Germany if a user selects Germany in the Country field when creating a trip task. You can define conditions for multiple values of a single field, allowing for a more tailored task creation process.
