When in the parent task, and viewing the list of subtasks, there used to be a little speech-bubble icon to the right of each subtask that had a comment (or if it had sub-subtasks). I’m not making this up, right?
It was a helpful indicator that the subtask had “more info” in it, so you know to drill into it to.
I realize there’s still/now separate icons for if/when there are sub-subtasks or comments, but it’s also useful to know if and when there is simply a description in the subtask too. Now I find myself clicking into each subtask just to check if there’s more context.
Hi @FreshyJon , indeed the speech bubble icon you are referring to has been recently replaced with a > arrow, similar to how you expand parent tasks to open the task details pane, which is better for UI consistency.
However, I’m fairly certain the bubble icon used to do just that - it was not relative as to whether the subtask had a description or not.
Been using Asana for about 9 years now. Pretty certain the bubble icon was there until a few months ago, and would show up even if the subtask had only a description. It was an indicator that the subtask wasn’t just a completely empty subtask.
