Item type filter in Workload view and automatic date shift tracking for tasks
Hello, I have two feature requests that I think would benefit the community. In the Workload view, I would like to be able to filter by "item type". When a task is rescheduled, its dependent tasks are shifted accordingly, but this shift isn't logged in the activity stream of those dependent tasks. This makes it difficult…

Feature Request: Task Phases with Progress Tracking
Many tasks consist of several sequential phases, but creating a subtask for every phase clutters large projects.

Missing task-based time logged roll-up? I have a workaround that works!

Subtask Naming Automation
I’d like the ability to use automations to name subtasks dynamically based on the parent task’s name, with an added prefix or suffix.

Ability to detach subtasks from Table view

Mass-edit task title with Find & Replace feature
We use tasks with unique project codes in the task title and often times these need to be updated. It is extremely tedious having to rename each task one by one for plans with hundreds of lines when a simple "Find & Replace" feature would turn hours of work into mere minutes.

Add drag/drop text editing inside the Description field
I frequently use the Description field for robust notes and brainstorming. But regardless of the use-case, when it comes time to restructure the Description content, using "select/right click/cut/navigate/right click/paste" is tedious. The Description field appears to in-fact be intended for rich text editing with its…
