Visual exploration of timelines March 18, 2013
References: • RTC work item History view (Eclipse) • Plan Ghant view
Contexts explored: • JazzHub project details • RTC views: • Timeline editor (updated since 03/11-slide 9) • Release plan • Sprint plan • Scheduled absences (new-slide 11) • Work environment (new-slides 12-13)
Notes: • Timeline view showing multiple timelines - related timelines are same color • Selected timelines would persist on surface (under picker at right) – can be removed (Google handles this in a sidebar w/ checkboxes) • Blocks of time in which we view are larger (Month, 6 weeks, etc) given the nature of timelines
More thoughts on slides 5-8: • What would a list view show? (timeline view) > ref: project schedule images of stacked time • Look at how we show time consistently in different parts of the UI, e.g. start and end dates, just end dates, # of days left, a mix of formats depending on context? • Timeline views in plans > what problem are we trying to solve? What will make these views useful in plan context? • Tech. consideration: How much can existing calendar tools be enhanced or customized? Need to weigh investment of time to value of features. • Wiki notes: https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/Calendar
Notes: • Same behaviours as typical Google calendar – click into calendar to add entries, edit, delete
Notes: • Workday is editable by dragging whole entry or ends, moving to another day • Combined existing Work Location and Work Days sections • Could this view also track time spent on projects? Would that show here based on Time Spent entered within work items, or would it be added manually here? Both? • Workday would remain constant, project entries overlaid • Project time could reflect actual Work Allocation – more realistic velocity • Continue thinking about whether Sched-Abs and Work-Env should be an amalgamated view: perhaps when W-E zooms to a week, this view would appear • How to visualize Work Allocation view?
FYI: Combined view of Workday, schedule and projects (projects color coded)
More thoughts: • How much could a calendar show per project? • Timelines: timeline parent, releases, sprints • Work Environment and Scheduled absences • Time spent (per person, per team) on projects • Interesting from a project view, and conversely from a team or individual view • Team meetings • Other?
