Our team is thrilled to announce the latest release of BigGantt!

New

We're excited to partially introduce the possibility of setting the default scheduling modern per task type to enhance your BigGantt experience. This change is currently being tested with a select group of users to gather feedback and ensure the best possible user experience. This means some users will see the new feature while others will continue with the existing experience.

Scheduling mode

Configure the default scheduling mode per task type

You can configure the default scheduling mode for each task type, including extra tasks such as Jira epics, components, projects, sprints, versions, etc. This way, new task types you add to a box in the future will get the default scheduling mode. The configuration works per box or box type.
