Hello, this is to check if this change would be a customization. Currently, it is possible to create a visual task board for tasks that can be broken out into swimlanes based on the parent record/story, but this cuts off the full short description.
Has anyone had to solve for this or heard of the issue before? Is there a way to get it to not cut off the value in the swimlane header?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi @Awae ,
Yes, this would require a customization to modify the style or layout of the swimlane header in the visual task board. Here are some possible solutions:
Adjust the width of the swimlane header to make it wider and accommodate the full short description. This can be done by modifying the CSS for the swimlane header element.
Modify the layout of the swimlane header to display the short description in a different way, such as wrapping it onto multiple lines or displaying it as a tooltip on hover. This can also be done using CSS or JavaScript.
Use a different field or property of the parent record/story to display in the swimlane header, such as the parent record/story number or a custom field with a shorter value.
Keep in mind that any modifications to the swimlane header or other parts of the visual task board may affect the user experience and usability, so it's important to test any changes thoroughly before deploying them to production.
Thanks,
Ratnakar
