How to Use the Release View

Chisel’s release view allows users to easily visualize their release cycles and which features will belong to each release cycle.

Release Landing Page

Upon clicking the release view on the left, you will be placed on a screen with various releases shown on the top header.

Also, the various components that make up your product will be on the right below the headers.  

All the features for the product will be in the same release that you placed them inside the treeview.  Any end dates for features, labels, and people working on the feature will be easily visible.  

You can easily drag features between releases if you want to move a feature up or down releases.

Clicking on a feature will result in the side panel with the same functionality as the one in the treeview and the Kanban view. 

Adding a Release

You can add a release by clicking on the add new releases button at the top next to all the current releases.

Once you do, a text field will appear, letting you type the release’s name. 

Once you choose a name, click the “Add release” button, and the release will be finalized.

Rearranging a Release

If you want to move your releases from right to left or vice versa, you can easily do that too.

Go to any release title, and click on the edit icon to open the tab with all the ‘Release Actions.’

Once here, you can click on ‘Move to Right’ or ‘Move to left‘ based on your requirements.

Accordingly, you can see the changes in your release view.
