Time blocks in task view
Ricardo Clerigo
Some users have requested a way to see and create timeblocks for a task from the task view.
- eg Essentially, if you guys create a "Days/Times TO WORK ON" field on Tasks, we could then see that in Task View, and on the new Calendar view. This has always been a major problem in ClickUp - that Due Date is not just a due date, but is also treated as a day to work on something. Those two things need separating. We need to be able to set days/times to work on tasks.

problem in ClickUp - that Due Date is not just a due date, but is also treated as a day to work on something. Those two things need separating. We need to be able to set days/times to work on Tasks.This new calendar view is a step towards that.
But if these days/times from time blocking are not actual Task properties that we can see, then you/we are missing out on using them across other areas of ClickUp - e.g., creating out our List view to list/group by "Days/Times to work on", Workload view (how will it know what your workload is if these are not a Task property?), Dashboard widgets, etc etc etc.
So these Time Blocks really NEED to be a Task property to get full benefit.

Being able to look at a Task and see you have scheduled time to work on it would be REALLY useful.
That way you KNOW it is going to get attention at a set time.
You also KNOW it has been scheduled and can relax knowing that it will be taken care of.
Also, being able to schedule said time to work on a Task from Task View itself would be really useful, as then you don't have to click out, find the Task in calendar, then schedule it.
