TFS2013: Please confirm if I have to edit the bug.xml and the categories.xml to get Bug Work Items on the kanban board


hello,

vs/tfs 2013

i have studied following links:  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj920163.aspx , http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudioalm/archive/2013/02/12/add-bugs-to-the-task-board-or-backlog-pages.aspx

since these articles on year old wanted confirm still required before , potentially break my system.  assuming this may still required, have question regarding 2nd set of edits, 1st item 5 on webpages for the bug.xml file.

i don't quite understand how xml step 5 edit in <form> section.  there 3 major <group> elements.  1 of them contains a <group> element label="status".  supposed copy , paste section web links above, or perform 'additive' edit, in other words ensure every line present still present new lines added in.

this current bug.xml looks in area of <form> element <group label="status"> located:

            <group label="status">               <column percentwidth="100">                 <control fieldname="system.assignedto" emptytext="&lt;no one&gt;" type="fieldcontrol" label="assi&amp;gned to" labelposition="left" />                 <control fieldname="system.state" type="fieldcontrol" label="stat&amp;e" labelposition="left" />                 <control fieldname="system.reason" type="fieldcontrol" label="reason" labelposition="left" />                 <control fieldname="microsoft.vsts.common.resolvedreason" type="fieldcontrol" label="resolved reason" labelposition="left" readonly="true" />               </column>             </group>

the code i'm supposed add is:

      <group label="status">         <column percentwidth="33">           <control type="fieldcontrol" fieldname="system.assignedto" label="assi&amp;gned to:" labelposition="left" />           <control fieldname="microsoft.vsts.common.stackrank" type="fieldcontrol" label="stack rank" labelposition="left" />           <control fieldname="microsoft.vsts.common.activity" type="fieldcontrol" label="activity" labelposition="left" emptytext="&lt;none&gt;" />         </column>         <column percentwidth="33">           <control type="fieldcontrol" fieldname="system.state" label="&amp;state:" labelposition="left" />           <control type="fieldcontrol" fieldname="system.reason" label="&amp;reason:" labelposition="left" />         </column>         <column percentwidth="33">           <control type="fieldcontrol" fieldname="microsoft.vsts.common.triage" label="triag&amp;e:" labelposition="left" />           <control type="fieldcontrol" fieldname="microsoft.vsts.common.priority" label="priorit&amp;y:" labelposition="left" />           <control fieldname="microsoft.vsts.scheduling.originalestimate" type="fieldcontrol" label="original estimate" labelposition="left" />           <control fieldname="microsoft.vsts.scheduling.remainingwork" type="fieldcontrol" label="remaining" labelposition="left" />           <control fieldname="microsoft.vsts.scheduling.completedwork" type="fieldcontrol" label="completed" labelposition="left" />         </column>       </group>

with exception of the <control> element fieldname="microsoft.vsts.common.resolvedreason", "code add" has of current fields, apparently allocating column percentages in new way.

i'm not comfortable edit since don't understand code doing.

anyway, wondered if functionality had been added 'menu selection' somewhere in tfs, before go trouble finalize edits , upload new set of templates.

also, i'm editing these file in vs2013.  there huge advantage using tfs2013 power tools?  noticed number of people had problems install, didn't install tool yet.

thanks much.

best regards,

alan
