New Features
Search & Navigation Improvements
To improve the display and navigation of timelines and to introduce a free text search that is central to the experience.
Proposal
To remove the display of blueprints in the current filter 'tree' on the timeline. This will be replaced by one central search field that will allow the user to search for anything contained on the timeline. This will include event types, documents, blueprints (tags) and all text content within events. An advanced filter will be accessible in a tile to the right of the timeline to allow more complex search queries, for example to limit by date.
Bulk tagging will be moved into a wizard style workflow. Entering bulk tagging mode will show the available blueprint tags in full screen allowing for selection. Returning to the timeline will again display that in full screen allowing for application of the selected tags to events.
Goals
Functionality to allow targets and goals to be set for users to aim towards and measure themselves against. Goals can be general aims, e.g. 'I want to improve my understanding in this area...' or much more specific, e.g. 'I want to complete 5 skill log entries'. Users can manually link any event that they own to a goal in order to demonstrate that it is contributing towards achieving it.
Profile Card
To move the profile card out of the left hand column on the timeline as the information it contains is not useful enough for the amount of space it takes. Profile information will be stored in the top right hand corner, displayed when the profile image is clicked.
If you are viewing the timeline of someone else then information on this person is displayed at the top of the screen and automatically follows you as you scroll.
