Cards on the Project Browser
In the Project Browser each project is represented as a card with the project name.
Cards have the following parts:
Project name—Click the project name to open the project in a new tab.
Project icon—This can be configured, see later.
If the card is movable, it has a drag handle (three points) on the left edge.
The context menu icon (visible only when the mouse is above the card) is in the bottom-right corner.
The arrow icon in the top-right corner (visible only when the mouse is above the card) opens an overlay showing some details (issues created, releases, recent activity, and so on) about the project.
Color, size and project icon
Each card has a color and a size. By default, all cards are blue and small sized. Using the context menu you can choose from three predefined sizes and colors for a card.
These dimensions and colors have no predefined meaning: you can set them based on your preferences. The colors and sizes set on one tab are the same on all other tabs, but are only visible for the user who set them - other users can set other colors and sizes.
There is another way of changing the status color of a project card: using the project status field. This is only editable by project administrators and can be set on the Admin page. This color setting is the same for all users who can access the project.
It is possible to color the cards based on two properties: user defined colors and project status. You can switch between these two modes using the color switch on the left panel.
When you click on Project Status, the card colors are set based on the project status. When you click on My Colors can see the colors that you have defined.
The icon displayed on the card is also configurable. It can be set by project admins on the Admin page of the project. You can select one from the many predefined icons and you can also upload your own 32x32 icon.
The context menu of a card
The context menu of a card contains the following items:
Small—Changes the card size to the smallest.
Medium—Changes the card size to the medium.
Large—Changes the card size to the largest.
Color—Changes the color of the card here
Set status—Changes the status color of the project
Edit—Opens the Admin page of the project. It is available only if the user has the necessary permissions to edit the project.
Remove from set—Removes the project from the project group. This is only available on the Project Groups tab.
Organizing Project Groups
To keep the project organized you can change the order inside a category or a project group. You can simply reorder the project using a drag-and-drop operation (moving the cards with the mouse cursor). This order is only visible for you - other users may set some other order.
You can also update the category of a project, or you can move it to another project group. Just drop the card to an item in the category or project group list on the left pane.
And finally, you can update the order of the project groups. By default, they are sorted by name. You can change the order by moving an item up or down in the list.
Managing Project Groups
On the Project groups tab, you can manage your project groups. There are three basic operations you can do here:
You can create a new Project group. Click before the project groups to create a new project group at the beginning of the list. Alternatively, you can click between any two project groups to create a new set between them.
You can also add a new project to a set. Clicking in or behind the name of the project group. An overlay opens, in which you can select the projects to add to the set.
To remove a project from the project group, click Remove from set on the context menu of the card. You can also completely remove a project group by clicking after the name of the project group.
As project groups are completely private, the above operations do not affect the other users.
