This release focuses on visual clarity, refined project management, and significant UI improvements to streamline your production tracking.
🎨 Task and Folder Colors
Folders and tasks are now much easier to identify at a glance. AYON now pulls the colors defined in your Project Anatomy for folder and task types and applies them to their respective projects.
