This is useful since the list of completed tasks is easily visible during the weekly meetings. At the end of such meeting, we finally mark each task in the \"Done\" column as \"closed\". This can be tiresome when there are several tasks as closing each task requires at least three clicks. Here are a few ideas to simplify closing:\r\n1) add a way to close all task in the entire column (maybe limited to a single swimlane) with a single action. For example, by adding a clickable button on the column header (like the \"+\" for adding tasks)\r\n2) add a drop destination area to close tasks: if you drag-and-drop a task in this area, the task is closed, no confirmation needed (this is very kanban-style, since changing the task state is usually associated with moving it)\r\n3) [can be used to implement 2, but can also be useful nonetheless] allow columns to be collapsed. In this way I can add a final \"Closed\" column with an automatic action so that every task moved into it will to be automatically closed. The \"Closed\" column will act as the drop destination described in 2, while occupying little horizontal space (which is good since the column will always appear empty).\r\nJust my two eurocent,\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/fguillot/kanboard/issues/comments/138370531","html_url":"https://github.com/fguillot/kanboard/issues/1056#issuecomment-138370531","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/fguillot/kanboard/issues/1056","id":138370531,"user":{"login":"mrozigor","id":4171337,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/4171337?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/mrozigor","html_url":"https://github.com/mrozigor","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mrozigor/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mrozigor/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mrozigor/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mrozigor/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mrozigor/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mrozigor/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mrozigor/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mrozigor/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mrozigor/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-09-07T20:25:18Z","updated_at":"2015-09-07T20:25:18Z","body":"Like @Chaosmeister I use automatic actions to close tasks in 'Done' column.
