First swimlane title of issues in view should be fixed to top of board under list headers
Problem to solve
When there are many issues in a swimlane (aka the swimlane has a lot of height), the user can scroll past the title of the swimlane they are looking at which causes them to lose context and impedes usability of the swimlane.
Intended users
- Parker (Product Manager)
- Delaney (Development Team Lead)
- Presley (Product Designer)
- Sasha (Software Developer)
User experience goal
Users always understand which swimlane they are viewing, and which swimlane the issues they are viewing belong to.
Proposal
The first swimlane title, or the swimlane title of the issues in view on top of the board to affix to the top of the board until its issues have left view as well.
Scenario: User sees swimlane a
at the top of their board under the list headers as they scroll. At some point as they scroll they see swimlane b
stacked under swimlane a
. When they keep scrolling they see that swimlane b
is now at the top of the board as they scroll. If they scroll up toward swimlane a
they would see the reverse. At one point swimlane b
would be stacked under swimlane a
again. If the user keeps scrolling UP they would then see swimlane a
affixed to the top and swimlane b
scrolling toward the bottom again.
