KB Summary by Now Assist

Issue

Having created a Visual Task Board in the New York Patch 2 release, it was found that the 'Exclude Child Table Records', 'Vertical Lane Field', 'Swimlane field' and 'Due Date Field' fields were not visible under the 'Structure' section of the board 'Info' tab.

Release

New York

Cause

This is expected behaviour, you need to be the owner of the VTB for these fields to be visible to you.

The underlying code runs a check to see if the 'SysId' of the board owner is the same as that who is currently viewing it. If it is these fields are visible, if not then they are not.

This can be seen in the html for these elements, where there is 'ngIf: showExcludeChildLanesToggle()' determining whether each field is displayed.

Resolution

You need to be the owner of the VTB for these fields to be visible to you.
