Add a description to an effort
There is no possibility to add a description to an effort. When I am working on a task which, for example, comprises the implementation of a module, I would often like to add comments to efforts like "Implementation", "Testing", "Bugfixing" etc. Just a line.
2 votesThis is already possible. Double click the effort in the effort viewer to open the effort edit dialog. There you can enter a description. You may also want to make the description column visible in the effort viewer.

Place a category dropdown on the task creation page
When creating a new task, I frequently forget to page over to the category screen to assign the category. There should be a category dropdown selection box on the task creation page to avoid this from happeneing. Its important enough to include on the main page. Another solution (or complementary) would be to automatically assign the task to the category that is selected for filter.
2 votesYour second suggestion already works.

Export complete effort task list in cvs format

How about a field for responsible personel?
An additional field to input the name of the responsible
3 votesYou can easily do this right now, using categories. Simply create a category Person and a subcategory for each person you need to assign tasks to, e.g. Person→Mary, Person→Joe, etc.

Change cursor focus in list view when completing a task
I use list view and noticed that when I complete a task, the cursor focus follows the completed task to the bottom of my list. It would make more sense if the cursor focus went to the top of the list when completing a task, or the next incomplete task that follows the task just completed.
3 votesFor me, this works, cursor stay in the same place in the list.

Button to hide/unhide active tasks
Useful if you want to create a list with completed task. There was already a filter with this option.
In the 0.76 version has been removed but I didn't find that a silly option.2 votesSee release 0.76.1.

Usability enhancements for adding Efforts
It would be very useful that TaskCoach could be used as a punch-in clock for registering efforts, but it's pretty cumbersome to do it now because there are no shortcuts, and it takes so many clicks and inputs to create an Effort. By assigning shortcuts to New Effort and to Stop Tracking Effort, and by fine-tuning the default values for Start and Stop time, this should be easy to fix. The default value for Start time should probably be equal to the last Stop time, and the default value for stop should be Now (but the Stop checkbox should be…

Add a status field (e.g., In Progress, Awaiting, Completed)
I think it'd be helpful to add a new Status field. Other task management tools have this. It would be nice to easily mark a task as "In Progress" or "Completed" or "Awaiting Feedback" or "Postponed" etc. It would be nice to then be able to sort/filter based on this field.
65 votesRelease 0.77.0 allows for mutual exclusive subcategories so that you can create your own status field. Status can be changed using the right-click context menu (“Toggle category”).

Show/hide main window by one/double left click on system tray.
Also I would like to show/hide on one/double left click on system tray.
Currently it shows up by left double click on system tray. And hiding will be a good feature for easy use. No more mouse movements to hide the main window after quick view of task list from system tray.
3 votesSee release 0.75.0.

One window for the task
I would like to have all important information about the task in one window. Now there are many separated windows like Description, Dates, Progress.. I would like to have the contain of these windows in one window at least: Description, Dates, Progress, Budget.
It safe many clicks and get better overview.4 votesYou can do this mostly. For each tab in the editor, you can drag it to different parts of the window to create multiple panes that are shown at once. It works like the way different viewers can be shown at once in the main Task Coach window.
And your settings will be saved as the default for the future. -
Minimize to System Tray
When I hit the minimize button at the top of the window, it would be great if the program didnt just sit there in the task bar, but instead went to the system tray.
I realize the program already has a presence in the system tray, but I want it to disappear from the task bar while minimized.An alternative to this would be that when I hit the close button in the top left, it goes to the system tray. This would make it more difficult to close the program and thus you wouldnt accidentally get away from your…

Task Activity log
I'd like to see a facility to add log entries to a task. This would allow short notes to be attached to tasks as I work on them. These log entries should be date and time stamped to give the user a feel for the flow of activity.
Such a feature would be a huge help for many, I suspect who need a feature to help remember what got done to a task and when it happened, even though the task itself is not yet done.
372 votesThis is possible already.
Instead of tracking efforts by just clicking the track button or by using cntl-T, use cntrl-E instead. That will open a new effort, complete with the ability to add text notes to the description for each effort.
You can see a log of efforts by making an effort viewer in View>New Viewer, and you can include a description column in that viewer. You can filter by both category and by text search.
You will probably want to show the description column in the task edit window’s effort tab. You can adjust this by right-clicking in the column header.
If you want instead to make notes that are not tied to efforts, then you might want to vote for this request for adding a date marker to notes:

Add "involved people" field
To better manage job tasks would be very useful to list who are the other people involved in the task (requested by; owner; other involved people)
