Preliminary remark: this bug is related to v7.0.7, but this version is not (yet) available in the droplist.

I have dispaly setup with:
  • attributes (id, start, due, to, by, flag, ...) on the left side (i.e. left side of left block)
  • title in the middle (i.e. right side of left block)
  • comments on the right side (i.e. right block)
  • attribute boxes below left block (= attributes col. + titles col.)
  • coloring task title by (user) assigned colors.
I have a task with { start = yesterday } and { due= today }.
When I change the due date from today (=friday) to {toady+7days} (=next friday) by using the 'start date' attribute box:
  1. the attributes color (i.e. left side of the left block) is changed immediately from 'due today' color to 'started color'  >>  ok, normal
  2. the related title color (i.e. right side of the left block) is not changed from 'due today' color to 'started color' : it remains with the color 'due today' until the task line is clicked on it or the selection changed.
Consequence: until the task line is clicked on it or the selection changed, the attributes have another color than the related title.

( i )  This finding is neither blocking nor a priority - it's just a cosmetic (temporary) issue, as it is adjusted by the app itself at the end.

Have a nice day.

Hi Eric

You could have just posted a screenshot to avoid all that writing ;P

And can I have a screenshot anyway pls, I'm very visually oriented?

Hi Dan,

( i ) retested with v7.0.8 = same issue

( i )  color 'due today' = blue ; color 'started' = green

Here are the screenshots:
  • image 1 = set a due date for tomorrow
           >>  all colors = green
  • image 2 = change the due date from 'tomorrow' to 'toady'
           >>  start & due dates have a color change (green >> blue), but title is unchanged (green)
  • image 3 = click on either left or right panel
           >>  title color has a color change (green >> blue)
I would have expected that the title color would also be adjusted in image 2, to have a consistent line behaviour.

Thanks - Eric

Thx Eric, the images make it perfectly clear and it is definitely a bug.
