[馃帹Design] Explore adding an additional row to the board header

Challenge

The Board header has many options within one horizontal row. This is causing a few issues:

  • The search bar is included in this row, causing it to vary in width and sometimes be so narrow that the filters are hard to read.
  • Some options should be more logically grouped to improve usability and allow for flexibility if more options are added.
  • Some options, for example New board, are not very discoverable.
  • The title of a board is often truncated and hard to read because it is within a dropdown

Risks

  • The board title/board picker dropdown is used for switching to another board
  • There is not true navigation or dashboard for all boards in a group or project

Ideas

  • Group "global" board actions into another row, and current board actions into another
  • Provide some type of Board options dropdown
  • Prove an MVC of a Board dashboard to allow for more logical switching and exploring

Proposal

TBD
