Version 1.0Thank you for the feedback krfagan! We're glad you're enjoying the new board view.
While we recognise the importance and usefulness of editing premium plan tasks from My Tasks, it's a challenging limitation to address. However, we are continuing to work on closing this and other gaps between basic and premium plans to provide a more consistent and seamless experience in Planner, and I can confirm that this specific gap is on our backlog to close.
As robhprojility mentioned, premium plans commonly involve tighter controls in scheduling, and this will be taken into consideration as we close this gap.
Thank you David. Just getting used to the functionality more, is it possible to create new private tasks in board view? If not, can you please explain why that is the case?
Yes, you can create a private task in board view when you set the grouping to 'Group by Plan'. Then you can create a new task under the 'Private Tasks' column.
