Swimlane in Kanban View

[achamess]

Are swimlanes possible in the Kanban view? This would be a nice feature to have. I'm not seeing it.

Can you describe exactly what you mean by swimlane? Have seen several types.

Very simply, horizontal groupings, just like timeline or gantt has.

Thanks for providing that context. Unfortunately there is no way to group horizontally. My suggestion would be to group by status, and sort by team + add team to the display card for each project. You could also use conditional color to make tickets owned by each team more obvious.

One other thought - You could have a second kanban view which groups by team, and is sorted by status, if having that easily accessible is preferable.

Airtable Kanban help article talks about 'Swimlanes' as Rows.  I'm a bit mystified about how to activate such.

Thanks Max. Yeah they talk a lot about it but I don't see any way to do this. Anyone from Airtable want to chime in?

Seems odd to describe what swimlanes are but not show it. Swimlane are like groups in Grid views and would make a lot of sense.

Agree, swimlanes would be super helpful for us as well. Should also be very easy to implement

This is great for my use also, "almost" swimlanes. I also added "Tabs" - one for each "Team", so instead of swim lanes, I have tabs to divide the tasks.
