Eidos 0.7.0
This is an older release. The latest is 0.18.0. See what’s new in 0.18.0
Rename a blueprint or a task without breaking a link
Blueprints and tasks get generated ids, so two can share a title and a rename strands nothing, and a task now reads and edits like a blueprint.
Release highlights
- Generated ids: A new blueprint gets an id such as
B-1AC3instead of one taken from its title. - Move a root onto generated ids:
eidos reid --allgives every blueprint a generated id, and every comment thread, canvas node, task, and asset link that names an old one follows. - Tasks have ids: Each task gets a
T-id that everyeidos backlogcommand takes, so dependencies and parents survive a rename. - Filter by your own properties: Switch Filter on for a Backlog property and it becomes a dropdown over the board and the tables.
New
Generated ids
A new blueprint gets an id such as B-1AC3 instead of one taken from its title. The file is still named for the title, --id still sets one by hand, and existing ids stay. eidos reid →
Move a root onto generated ids
eidos reid --all gives every blueprint a generated id, and every comment thread, canvas node, task, and asset link that names an old one follows.
Tasks have ids
Each task gets a T- id that every eidos backlog command takes, so dependencies and parents survive a rename. eidos backlog ids gives ids to the tasks a root already has. Backlog →
Filter by your own properties
Switch Filter on for a Backlog property and it becomes a dropdown over the board and the tables.
Improved
A task reads like a blueprint
It opens in the blueprint reader's frame, and New task asks for a type and a title before it makes the file.
Pages load in their own shape
Every table and view draws a skeleton of what is coming while it waits, instead of a blank.
Changed
Two settings moved
The on-save rules are on the Linter's page, and the check's switches are on the Health Check page.
Fixed
A view that cannot read says so
A failed read shows its error instead of an empty view.
