Modify the default layout of how task fields are ordered in Project View

Modify the default layout of how task fields are ordered in Project View

Hi all,
I am trying to change the order the columns on project List view when a project is created initially. See image below.

Currently, when a project is created, a predefined collumns are created and also its orders. I am aware that I can "hide", and drag to reorder, but this needs to be done for every project, after its been created.

I am looking to set a default view when the project is created.

    • Task Inline Editing Enhancement

      Hi All, Today, we have made an enhancement in task inline editing. In 4.0, task edit is moved in a single screen in a pop-up. We designed this in-order to make the task edit across the product to be the same. Let it be in Feeds, Tasks & My Tasks tab, Calendar & My Calendar tab, a click on the task title will open the popup and user can edit the values.
