Plans mode and the board layout

The Plans mode you select determines what appears as columns on the board. Swimlanes (rows) are configured independently via the swimlane assignment type — see Swimlanes (Rows) Parameters.
The selected Plans mode determines the board's four columns (Plan A–D), each holding cards and a capacity bar, while swimlane assignment configures the rows independently
The active Plans mode is set via the Plans (Columns) widget parameters — see Plans (Columns) Parameters for the full parameter reference.
