List

In 4ga Boards, lists are columns on the board representing different stages or categories of the workflow. For example, kanban board template comes with 5 empty lists:

List navigation​

To move list into different spot on the same board, simply drag and drop it where you want. You can't, however, move a list to different board or project.

If you have many lists that don't fit in a browser window, you can move around by using Shift + Scroll, holding on an empty space in the board (when a hand icon is visible) or by using scrollbar at the bottom.

If the list is full of cards, you can scroll through them using mouse scroll (while hovering over the list) or with scrollbar at the right side of the list.

You can hide/unhide all lists (empty or with cards) by clicking on the little triangle button in the top-left corner of the list (right next to its name). This feature is very handy for decluttering your board view and/or hiding unnecesarry lists. Hidden list will have the number of holded cards displayed on them (see screenshot).

Creating, editing and deleting the list​

To create a list, click on the +add list button on the board, write a name and confirm it by clicking on the green Add List button. It will automatically open a new pop-up window to create a next list. If you don't want to do it, simply click Cancel or start doing anything else and it will automatically close.

You can edit the list name by clicking on the ellipsis in the top-right corner of a list. It will open a context menu, in which you can also add card and delete list (clicking it will open an additional confirmation pop-up). In the same menu you can check activity of the list (when it was created and last updated). By clicking on Add Card you can create a new card at the bottom of the list.

List in list view​

Lists do not magically disappear when you switch from the board view to the list view. To see which list a card belongs to, refer to the "List" column. You can also move cards between lists here by clicking on it.

Sorting the lists in this view does not change its placement in the board view.
