Commented Issue: Memory leaks? [1240]

davehenderson — Mon, 08 Oct 2012 21:41:24 GMT

<p>We're finding that Visual WIP exe memory usage increases every time we do a Refresh from the ribbon. It seems to be proportional to the number of "cards" on the kanban. If we have approx 50 cards on the kanban, and an automatic refresh interval of 30 seconds, it results in an application crash about once per day. I suspect a memory leak....is that possible?</p>

Comments: ** Comment from web user: davehenderson **

Hi, Just wanted to let you know that the previous fix (approx one year ago) improved our situation, but we still crash approximately once every 2 days due to memory leaks. We have about 25 items on the kanban, and refresh every 30 seconds.
If I manually hit refresh, I see memory usage jump by about 1MB.
I'm going to increase our refresh interval, but it would be nice to be able to leave it up perpetually.
Thanks again.

Created Issue: Refresh board when work item editor saves work item [1572]

HakanForss — Wed, 04 Apr 2012 21:33:59 GMT

So when you close the TFS work item editor, you must wait until the board refreshes to see the resultant move of a ticket from one column to another. Could this process be sped up to appear to be almost real-time by invoking the refresh upon closing the editor?

Closed Issue: Handle null values when persisting [739]

When persisting the WorkInProgressGroupColumn the SecondQuery will be null. This has to be handled better

Closed Feature: Add TFS Team Query refresh button [974]

HakanForss — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 22:02:03 GMT

I foresee a button somewhere to re-load the queries in tfs. I think you cache the queries and execute them,
and not execute the queries at the tfs server.

Situation
I made a subfolder WIP in WorkItems, and underneath this sub-folder I have a couple of queries, representing a status I want to follow, for a sprint.
Now when I go to the next sprint (every 2 weeks) I update these queries so they look at the new sprint too.
but VisualWip still has the old definitions, so displaying the previous sprint. for the moment I just close and open Visual Wip, to bypass this.

Not a big problem since it only has to be done once every 2 weeks, but one may not forget it ;-)

Commented Feature: Add TFS Team Query refresh button [974]

astanton1978 — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 13:23:42 GMT

wow... cant add a vote.

As a note, this is a problem within Visual Studio 2010 as well. The query definitions change on the server, but the clients do not get updated w/o either manually refreshing or restarting VS.

Commented Issue: Change color based on value of a field in TFS [1241]

edithrusso — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 22:26:21 GMT

I would like to be able to change the color of a card on the kanban based on the value in a specific field in TFS.
I see that I can change the color based on the Work Item type in the config file, but I need a bit more flexibility.

Two reasons I would use this feature:
- we have team members located in multiple locations, and we would like to distinguish stories being worked on in different locations so we can navigate the kanban more quickly
- we have stories for documentation writing and test improvement, which don't get their own Work Item Type in TFS, and would like to distinguish them on the kanban

We're just begining agile/kanban and initially looking to run from a team room during standups to get status. We haven't gotten to a point, yet, to have a big visual picture all the time. but we will! thanks again!

You can get it to work off a network share but installing locally is much easier. All users’ needs to have Visual Studio 2008/Team Explorer 2008 or later installed.
My recommendation is to get a dedicated PC with at least dual monitor support. Put the PC and the monitors where you would have had you physical kanban board. It should always be on and visible for anyone going by. Visual WIP is not targeted to be a personal desktop app where every user would have their own instance of Visual WIP running on their PC. Making your work instantly visible is the goal.

Do the user have Visual Studio 2008/Team Explorer 2008 or later installed? Visual Studio 2008/Team Explorer 2008 or later is required.

How are you supposed to run this software? I put on a shared network and I have a feeling that's not the right way of doing it.

Commented Issue: Change color based on value of a field in TFS [1241]

HakanForss — Mon, 03 Oct 2011 19:59:41 GMT

When you unzip the release version of Visual WIP you will find an Images folder. In this folder you will find two images. One named HakanForss.jpg and one NameNotFound.jpg If the assigned to field contains the name HakanForss the HakanForss.jpg avatar will be shown. Add your own avatars using the same name as used in the assigned to field and it should be shown.

Closed Feature: Board snap shot [795]

Closed Issue: Illegal characters in path [1195]

Just started playing around with this. I created a query and tried to add a single column using that query, and got this error when done with defining the column. I'm wondering if it's our work item. What kind of info do you need to figure out what I'm doing wrong.
