Highlights in this release
đź“…Â Smarter Task Movement: Preserve sequences when dragging across weeks and swimlanes
đź”—Â Faster Connection Selection: Harpoon-based selection and batch editing
🌍 Multi-Language UI (Beta): Norwegian, French, and Spanish support
🧩UX Improvements: Cleaner imports and more flexible weekly work plan viewsÂ
đź“…Â Smarter Task Movement & Sequencing
Task movement is now more intelligent and data-aware, reducing unintended schedule changes and preserving planning logic.
Dragging tasks now shows clear visual feedback indicating how far tasks will move (by days or weeks)
Sequences preserve their relative order and duration when moved across:
Weeks
Collapsed or expanded views
Swimlanes
Tasks snap to valid workdays and avoid unintended weekend placement
Hold Alt while dragging to copy task sequences instead of moving them
To support the shift toward data-driven interactions, we’ve added contextual tooltips during task movement.
Inline messaging explains:
How far tasks will move
Where they will land before you drop them
Visual cues clarify movement across:
Days vs. weeks
Collapsed vs. expanded views
Different swimlanes
💡 This is a major step toward more predictable replanning—especially for takt-style workflows and complex sequences.
đź”— Faster Connection Selection & Batch Editing
We’ve added new workflows to make working with connections and dependencies significantly faster—especially at scale.
Quickly create connections from:
Multiple elements to one element
One element to multiple selected elements
Use the X shortcut to toggle between elements and their connected items, expanding selection to neighboring connections
Select connections directly using the Harpoon tool
The first item selected determines whether you’re selecting elements or connections
Apply batch updates to selected connections:
Change connection type
Set dependency relationships (FS, SS, etc.)
Apply lag values across multiple connections at once
💡 This also makes it easier to upgrade older plans while preserving existing logic.
🌍 Multi-Language UI (Beta)
To support global teams, Hoylu now includes additional UI languages.
Added Norwegian, French, and Spanish language options
Switch languages instantly via:
The Control Center (shortcut:Â
F1)Your User Profile in the Management Portal
Changes apply immediately across the application
💡 Languages are currently in Beta while translations and layout fit are refined.
🧩UX Improvements
We’ve made a handful of smaller improvements that remove friction from everyday workflows and make planning easier to manage.
Weekly Work Plan – New Sorting Option
Added a Swimlane + Team view
Groups tasks by team within each swimlane
Displays tasks chronologically within each group
Ideal for focusing on a single trade while maintaining swimlane context
đź’ˇ A practical improvement for daily and weekly coordination.
CSV Import Improvements
Improved handling when start date, due date, and duration are all provided
Duration is now recalculated automatically based on Hoylu’s calendar
Reduces warnings caused by mismatched calendar settings
Minimizes manual repair after import
Maintains milestone detection for zero-duration tasks
đź’ˇ Cleaner imports and more reliable schedules.
