Add/Edit tasks in a split screen instead of overlay modal
planned

Basically, what was said here, but it seems the sidebar aspect is being overlooked/unacknowledged from what I can see: https://feedback.clickup.com/feature-requests/p/edit-tasks-inline-or-on-a-sidebar
This is the major thing I find difficult with migrating from Asana to Clickup. Having the modal cover up everything and having to close it is bothersome. Asana's design choice in this regard is just far more pleasing to the eye and uses less clicks. I prefer the task items to not fill up the whole screen anyway, finding the feeling on my eyes rather similar to websites that let paragraphs stretch wider than they ought to (making them uncomfortable to read).
Making the split screen an option (rather than mandatory) at least would be acceptable. Other than an on/off switch, this is pretty much a front-end feature.
The screenshot I've annotated comes from an official Asana tutorial, so credits to there.

I can't help but wonder if they're postponing this until they get the mobile app right, because then they can do a UI rehaul that won't clash with Mobile use...
Likely rehauling the task view will also depend on how the email integration works... Until that's released and they get feedback, there's no point in making this change.
This is just my speculation, but knowing how efficient the team is, it's likely they have this on their radar but want to move forward in the smartest way possible.

There is a lot to love about ClickUp, but after having used it for a bit now, this is probably the biggest deal-breaker feature for me. Please add it soon!

Great job on the Series A funding. But you're going to have a really hard time getting Asana clients to switch over without this feature. Might be time to get it on the roadmap? @Zeb

@Serge: This is on the way, I promise!

@Zeb, it's been a few months since this has gone into Planned status and I still haven't seen it added to your roadmap, can you guys add it in please, thanks.

Was about to request the same thing - Wrike does this as well, and it is the single element that makes me miss Wrike. Would be great to have it so that can click on a task and it just shows the details on the right, instead of an overlay

Guys wanted to bump this up a bit. Really think the existing window in List View when you click the "I" icon would be sufficient. You already have this UI element, so if you could just give us the option to display tasks like this, and not the only way now that covers the whole screen, we'd have some huge help here!

@Bill: this is a great suggestion, even if only for a temporary solution.
Where I would like to see this implemented in particular is the notifications screen.
Now we have the ability to reply from the notifications screen. I can see it being very useful to be able to click on a task card title, and have the side panel appear showing details for that task.
Useful for those moments where a user needs more context before replying from the notifications screen.
@Zeb is this possible?

We definitely need this feature, and soon! Having this feature is a huge selling point for Jira, Asana, etc. over ClickUp right now. PMs depend on this!
