This week we're launching List View, and it's not every day we launch a brand new project view.
With this new view, we're bringing the convenience of a list into your Hive projects - if you like Home View, this will be your new favorite.
Think: one expanded list of all actions in your project that can be customized, filtered, and edited to fit your workflow, preferences, and needs.
To access List View and test it out for yourself, just create a new tab with our swanky new tabs feature and select List View.
If you want this List View to be private, just slide the "Private view" toggle on the bottom of the dropdown.
At the top right, you'll find the Configure view settings:
Group By section: by default, the List view will be organized by Status, but with a few clicks, you can configure the list view to group by:
Status
Section
Priority Level
Project/subproject
Phase
Filter section: provides a variety of different filters such as Statuses, Assignees, Dates, Labels, etc.
Display section:
Columns: One of the ways to select which columns to display.
Blocked actions: Blocked / Unblocked / Show both
Milestones: Milestone / No Milestone / Show both
Archived actions check box
Projects in draft mode check box
Empty groups check box: if your Section/Project/Status, etc doesn't have any actions under it, you'll want to check this box to allow Hive to show that empty Section/Project/Status in your view.
Unbundle subactions: Do not show subactions unless they're grouped under parent actions
Hide subactions: Do not show subactions when they're not grouped under parent actions
Bringing special attention to Sections. Think of sections as your guide to your most pressing actions now and in the future.
Create your custom sections and drag & drop your actions in there.
Please note: these are shared sections meaning everyone in the project will see them.
Also, you can easily expand/collapse your actions & their subactions by using the +/- buttons in the List view:
Currently, sections exist in List, Gantt and Table views, but stay tuned for more!
The columns to the right of each action are moveable - just click and drag one column to bring it closer or further away from the action card name.
The full list of columns supported in List view:
Action name
Assignees
Start Date
Due Date
Labels
Status
Project
Priority
Blocked
Urgent
Attachments
Comments
Milestone
Phase
Section
Story Points
Simple ID
Created By
Created Date
Modified By

Assigned By
Assigned Date
Completed By
Completed Date
Estimate
Total Time Tracked
Estimated Time Spent
Action Custom Fields
Description
Duration
Only in List View, you'll be able to see the percentage of estimates spent by logged time.
Feel free to enable the columns and filter by each to customize your view.
Like Table View, List View columns with Status, Labels, etc, will all be editable directly from the column themselves. This will allow users to quickly alter or change small task items as needed without going into the action card itself.
Need to add more actions to your project? Quick-create a new action right from your List.
If you want to make your new List View the default project view, access the three "More" dots in the Tabs dropdown and select "Set as default view."
Bonus: our existing filter panel will work on List View as well.
Multi-select menu
To update multiple items at once in List view, you can use our multi-select functionality! You can quickly update:
Assignees
Status
Project
Label
Archive actions
Delete actions
If you'd like to select actions individually, hold the Command (Mac) / Ctrl (Windows) key on your keyboard and click on the action cards you want to update:
To select a range of actions, hold the Shift key on your keyboard and click two action cards to select everything in between:
Once selected, you can choose the desired option at the bottom multi-select menu.
