It is about a limitation related to the new subtask list displayed on the left side of the task view, introduced recently in ClickUp 4.0.
First of all, this is a very useful feature. Being able to see the full task–subtask structure while working inside a subtask significantly improves orientation and navigation within complex tasks.
However, there is an important limitation:
  • In the left-side subtask list (task structure panel), it is not possible to change the order of subtasks.
  • To reorder subtasks, the user must navigate back to the parent task and adjust the order there.
  • This breaks the workflow, especially when working deeply inside subtasks and managing task structure iteratively.
From a usability standpoint, enabling subtask reordering directly in this view would make task hierarchy management much more efficient, especially for large, multi-level task structures.
