+In the future we plan to support configuring a layout of multiple views and
+configuring certain options on those views.

+
+Reload
+^^^^^^
+
+When workflows are
+:ref:`reloaded <Reloading The Workflow Configuration At Runtime>`,
+(e.g. by ``cylc reload``), Cylc will now pause the workflow and wait for any
+preparing tasks to be submitted before proceeding with the reload.
+Once the reload has been completed, the workflow will be resumed.
+
+You can now see more information about the status of the reload in the
+workflow status message which appears at the top of the GUI and Tui interfaces.
