It would be nice if we can customize the task view or if you can redesign the task view. Including the ability to see the task in both full and split screen.

I just want the old default task view back, where it was a modal that I could easily close out of by clicking outside of the modal.

Guy Mannerings
Joshua Borger While I rarely used it, I can see why other people would. There is now now good option for a focused view, but where you still have that sense of a list behind or a quick way to get back to it.
All previous layouts had a good use:-
Full-screen for focus (my preference).
Sidebar for quick access when working on Lists.
Default modal for somewhere in-between.
I do also see use for the new default, as it keeps the sidebar there.
I actually think all 4 layouts have a good use.
Jamie G. Any chance of getting all 4 options, so getting the old default pop-up modal back as an option?

Guy Mannerings
Can we get view options when opening a Task from a Dashboard? Right now, they just open in full-screen, with no option for sidebar mode.

Guy Mannerings
Jamie G. What happened to the drop shadow on sidebar Task view?
It's now really hard to distinguish sidebar Task view from everything underneath.

Hey, Guy! Thanks for your feedback! We've shared your question with the PM for review. This sounds like this might have been a design update. I was also able to find your feature request for this here and have shared it with him!
If you have any new questions or feedback for the task view, feel free to post them in the open feature requests, or create a new one. Thanks for always helping us improve the platform!

Richard Perrin
Can we please get the main sidebar visible in the task view? or at least the option for this to be possible? It makes it so much harder to navigate when we have to keep clicking out of the task view to find other items in the workspace.
Asana does this much better:
Workspace sidebar | Task details | comments
in one screen.

Guy Mannerings
Richard Perrin You can do this. The new "default" task layout shows the left navigation sidebar instead of being a pop-up modal.

Richard Perrin
Guy Mannerings ok that's different. Still not that useful though. Can't see task comments and task details at the same time?

Guy Mannerings
Richard Perrin I don't know what you're seeing, but you can see Comments and details (Task Description / Details Tab / Subtasks / Action Items / Properties) at the same time from that view.
Sidebar view you can't, but the other two you can.

Jamie G. all I'm really asking for is the side bar task view to push all the list info in to view. and also what the hell does "Open" mean?

Jamie G.
Michael: Hey, Michael! Sorry for the mix-up with reopening this feature request. It's still considered complete, as this redesign was released with task view 3.0.
Ivan, the product manager, mentioned that the "Pinned" Sidebar task view feature request might be what you're looking for. He just updated it! If it's not quite right, feel free to create a new request and share more details.
Thanks for your understanding! We'd love for you to vote on newer feature requests or create a new one for any task view improvements you'd like to see!

Not only are the icons above the task title rather small. Meanwhile, the task property section below the task title takes up a huge amount of space and makes the user scroll to be able to see the custom fields. Also those property fields change position once they contain information. That way tags, time tracker and date section can be positioned either below or above the task title which makes their use very iconvenient.
I would prefer one single "info section" which is consolidated in a small space directly above or below the task title. Alternatively, customization options for task icons/info sections would be appreciated.

Mijal
you removed the "change task order in list view". it is impossible for us to work without it. please restore

Mijal: We used that a ton as well! Love the new features, but you need parity!
