Color schemes

Color schemes help visually organize your tasks on the Schedule Board, Timeline, and Gantt charts. They determine what color each task appears as, making it easier to understand schedules at a glance.

Accessing Color Schemes

1. Click on ⚙️ Settings from the sidebar.

2. Select the Color Schemes in the app settings.

Creating a new Color Scheme

When creating a new color scheme, you have two methods, depending on how you want tasks to be visually organized:

• RESOURCE – Assign colors based on the member responsible for the task.

• JQL – Assign colors using Jira Query Language (JQL) to match tasks based on specific criteria like status, priority, or project.

RESOURCE COLOR SCHEME

Creating a new Color Scheme

1. In the Select method dropdown at the top, choose Resource.

2. Click on the right corner.

3. Click on the color circle next to the new row to open a color picker

4. Select the color you want to assign to this scheme.

Assigning users to the scheme

1. In the Resources column next to your color scheme, click the ➕ button.

2. Enter the username in the search box to assign.

Each user can only be part of one color scheme. If a user is added to a new scheme, they will automatically be removed from their previous one.

Setting a default color scheme

The Default scheme is automatically applied to any users not assigned to a specific color scheme.

1. Locate the scheme you want to mark.

2. Click the icon next to the scheme.

Deleting a color scheme

Click the icon next to the color scheme you want to delete.

JIRA QUERY LANGUAGE (JQL)

Creating a new Color Scheme

1. In the Select method dropdown, choose JQL.

2. Click the button on the right.

3. In the popup window:

   • Pick a color by clicking the color circle.

   • Enter a JQL Query that defines which issues this color should apply to. (e.g: status = "To Do" priority = "High")

4. Click to save.

Once you set up a color scheme, the selected colors will show on the Schedule Board.

Editing or Deleting

1. Go to the Actions column on the right side of the color scheme.

2. Click the (⋯) icon next to the rule you want to update.

3. Choose edit or delete the color rule.
