  Hi,
  To me, this question seems easy, but I never figured out how to do it: In the task board, I would like to group the tasks by parent type and have the parent ordered by Backlog Priority, not in the order they were created.
  
  Example:
  Product Backlog #1 - Priority 2
      Task #1
      Task #2
      Task #3
  Product Backlog #2 - Priority 1
      Task #1
      Task #2
      Task #13
  
  If I don't use the group function and link the task board to a query that sorts by Backlog priority, it works. But, I want to see all tasks grouped by Product backlog item, so I group them. As soon as I group, the sorting order of the Product Backlog Item group is now the creation order and not the Backlog priority.
  
  Any way to specify the sorting when grouped?
  
  Thanks!
  
  Simon

  Hello Simon,
  
  Unfortunately there is no way to specify a sort order when in parent/child mode on the task board.  The query used is one that we are building ourselves and we have not made a way to specify the sorting.  Sorry, this is a bit of an oversight on our part.  I have added this feature to the backlog.
  
  Thanks for the feedback.

  Hi,
  
  I received an e-mail that a new release is available now. How can we get the list of new features added to know if this one is in?
  
  Thanks!

  Hi Mark,
  
  Unfortunately we have not done a release since version 4.1 so this feature has not yet been implemented.  In TeamPulse we sort the task board and story board by the backlog priority, but in WIM we still don't do this.
