Feedback on latest Bulk Edit Toolbar Changes
B
Brian Hall
We noticed the Bulk Edit Toolbar was changed today. You now have to click "More" to view all of the options for the Toolbar. Is there a way to change it back to how it has before? Or is there a way for us to edit how this toolbar displays? We have gotten multiple complaints from our userbase requesting to change it back if possible. The change is managable, but needed to report our userbase opinion of the change.

I actually like the new taskbar position at the bottom, it's more obvious than before. I'm using the ClickUp Desktop App and the old position on top always confused me a bit. Also having the Custom Fields now directly accessible as a button is great - although I agree, it's sometimes not working properly (the dropdown-field selector shows behind the taskbar, so it's partly covered).
I still would like to see Priority being added as a direct button, there's plenty of space. And if space is a concern for other reasons, i.e. on smaller screens, please let us choose which fields are shown (i.e. offer pin-buttons in the "More" menu) or even allow hiding the text labels.

The change in content/"more" button update was frustrating and now the new bottom position takes up more screen space, doesn't work properly when setting CFs, and is does not make any sense. Traditionally menus are at the top, why move it to the bottom?

I agree, this change is a bad UX decision. I frequently use Bulk Edit to set priority or assignees, but both are now hidden under "More". On the other hand the new toolbar now has so much empty space, which could be utilized much better here.

Oliver empty space and poorly used space and an abundance of clicks to perform tasks are becoming increasingly common.

My userbase is already livid with a change without any warning and no option to jump back...
Not even customizable, just bad UX/UI design and integration.
