We’ve been using dependencies for years — upgraded to Premium and pushed for our company to roll out Enterprise not in small part because of how functional that feature made timelines. We’ve always been able to drag timelines around by any task, with both blocked and blocking tasks, in order to change their dates (for example, if we had a June project and duplicated it for July, we could just go to timeline and drag the final due date task to the new July date). We like the autoshifting option in Lists but it’s typically easier to flow our projects to new dates via Timelines.
Well, as of this week, we are only able to drag timelines if we use the FIRST task in a dependency flow, rather than any task. I reached out to Asana with a video of the issue and received a response that made it sound like they’d never had any other autoshifting method available (essentially: I’m doing it wrong and should be using the first task only, but good idea that we’ll submit to Product Development), when literally we’ve been using it for years in the way that’s now not working.
Does anyone else use this feature? Anyone else having problems? Any tips?
