Changing default VTB labels

Hi All

I have searched online, but can't find any way of doing this without scripting (which I don't have access to). On a visual task board I was hoping to do one of the following:

a) show a coloured dot on the card based on the value of a custom field (RAG Status)

b) in some way format the card to show the current value of the RAG status field on the board whilst still having Swimlanes (so using compact cards)

failing either of the above

c) to change the default set of labels for the VTBs to be what I want rather than the default set of:

Defect, High Priority, Feature, Idea, Request, Story, Low Priority

NOTE: This list actually doesn't make any sense to me. If it was a Feature, Request or Story, it would have been raised as a feature, request or story task, the priority would be set by the task priority - so why would I want to store the same information somewhere else?

I would like the list to be 

Red, Red/Amber, Amber, Amber/ Green, Green for all future VTBs that relate to 'Releases'

I would be surprised to hear this isn't configurable in the GUI somewhere.

Thanks

Ben

FYI, It isn't possible to 'change' the current default set of labels, however, you can turn them off with some code...  You may also create NEW ones that are defauted to 'on' with the code.

You can also reorder them to your preference. above shows how mine are when i create a new visual task board.

When i say 'code', i am specifically speaking of business rules...

Ben, when you say you dont have access to 'scripting'..   are you able to make new business rules? or create new fix scripts?

 

I ask, because what you are wanting to do will require the ability to create new business rules....
