Project Kaiser Blog (original) (raw)

Dear Friends,

I'm glad to introduce Project Kaiser version 3.0. In this article I will give short overview for some of new features of new version. More information you can get on official site and from documentation.

Link to milestone.
Issue and Requirement can now be linked to a milestone. You can put issue/requirement anywhere in your project hierarchy, and after you link it to milestone, you can see it in the list of milestone-related files in "milestone" view:

1. Linking file to milestone. Note that milestone should be opened in a tab or added to user bookmarks, to be available in "Milestone" drop-down list:

2. Looking which files are linked to current milestone (this view activated automatically when it's not empty):

Customizable Grid Views
Lists of issues, as well as any other grids in Project Kaiser, can now be customized. You can apply filters, sort by columns, choose visible columns and then save your configuration. Later you can switch to this configuration, or even set it as default for this view.
Right click on column header to show filter popup:

Also you can select visible columns and manage grid configurations:

Button "Save As" can be used to save current grid configuration as named profile which can be later activated or even set as default.

History of "Description" field
You can see modification history of "description" field for any file. To view history, press "History" button:

To compare two versions, click on first version you want to compare, then hold "Ctrl" and click on version you want to compare with. In the window below you can see both versions with highlighted differences. Added, modified and removed lines shown in different colors:

Bookmarks
Bookmarks is a simple tool for quick access to your mostly used files, similar to browsers "Favorites". To add current file to your bookmarks, click on "star" icon near file path:

Later, you can quickly open this file by selecting bookmark from the list of bookmarks, which is on the top-right corner of main window, near language selector. You can delete bookmark if you don't need it by clicking on cross icon near bookmark name:

There are also other new features available in version 3.0. For example: reports, editor improvements, Google Analytic support, localized classifier names, and many others.
