I used to be able to open a task in any project and when I printed it from the 3-dot option at the top right it would print all the subtasks and the subtasks under each subtask. It was very helpful for our IT Technicians. Now when I print a task it only prints the top layer and will not show the su…

I’d like to update my answer - @Jennifer_Karsner , you described printing a Task, and I do replicate the limitation you mentioned - only the first level of Subtasks shows up. It’s when I print a Project that I get the deep-nested view. To me, it’s overall a better view, and you can print any filte…

@Jennifer_Karsner - I tested from my account and from a client account and both accounts are still able to see subtasks in the task printout. I really hope that what you are experiencing is just a glitch/bug or that it’s just a temporary change while Asana fixes something. Here’s what we see when…

Hi! Mine is doing that too but what I am saying is my tasks have subtasks and sometimes those subtasks have subtasks. It used to print everything that was in the main task showing all levels of each subtask. I wish I had a copy of how it used to print but I don’t. I already tried the Asana2Go print …

I have never used the print functionality in Asana - never understood the reason for it :sweat_smile: But I’d be surprised if it ever displayed more than one level of subtasks!

Yes, that is exactly what I am talking about. I will vote for it. Thank you!

I was going to point to the same request @Rashad_Issa did; that’s the only A/B I’m aware of. My Asana2Go prints the first level of subtasks for whichever tasks you ask to print (so if you select multiple subtasks, then you’ll see all their sub-subtasks). Thanks, Larry

I like a good challenge! [image] I only stopped descending the nesting chain due to time constraints… And although I almost never print Asana these days or ever, in the past I have had use cases for this type of printout…often to do a walkaround and get updates in person (when all else has failed…

Well I must admit, I am surprised indeed! Good to know, @Stephanie_J and glad that works for you. :slight_smile:

That is exactly what we used it for. It was a way to look at everything at once instead of going in and out of tasks which leaves room for errors if you’re not careful.

Asana will not print subtasks from the main task anymore

Hi @Jennifer_Karsner

Please check this product feedback and please upvote.
Asana changed the way printing takes place and we are asking for it to be reverted.

I believe that what you are after should be part the fix.

Thanks!
