[Bug] Expanding subtasks in Gantt view expands all hierarchy levels

Share feedback

I have a list which has a few tasks. Each of these tasks has 2 layers of subtasks (so, subtasks which has their own subtasks). When I choose Gantt view for this list and start with the “Subtasks: Collapsed” mode, I can see “Show all XX subtasks” links under each top-level task, as expected. However, when I click on a “Show all XX subtasks” link, I would expect to expand only one level of tasks. Now, all levels are expanded. If I try to collapse a single subtask from the first level, again all levels are collapsed instead of the one I just selected.

So, in ASCII art terms. My full task hierarchy:

.
├── taskA
│   ├── subtask1
│   │   ├── subtask1.1
│   │   ├── subtask1.2
│   │   └── subtask1.3
│   └── subtask2
│       ├── subtask2.1
│       ├── subtask2.2
│       └── subtask2.3
└── taskB

Initial Gantt view:

.
├── taskA
│   > Show 8 subtasks
└── taskB

After clicking on Show 8 subtasks:

Current:

.
├── taskA
│   ├── subtask1
│   │   ├── subtask1.1
│   │   ├── subtask1.2
│   │   └── subtask1.3
│   └── subtask2
│       ├── subtask2.1
│       ├── subtask2.2
│       └── subtask2.3
└── taskB

Expected:

  • Instead of Show 8 subtasks, the link should be Show 2 subtasks
  • After clicking on Show 2 subtasks, the view should be:
.
├── taskA
│   ├── subtask1
│   │   > Show 3 subtasks
│   └── subtask2
│       > Show 3 subtasks
└── taskB

Thanks for reaching out, Nikita! This request for sure makes sense and it’s on our radar to support more intuitive subtask management. I’ll circle back once this UX is improved :slight_smile:
