Create links between tasks for non-linear connections
I'd like to have a place for hyperlinks that connect tasks across the whole Task Coach system. This would make organizing work more like a non-linear concept-web type of thing within the existing Task Coach system.
It would be great to have a way to view a list (or ideally a visual web) of all the other tasks that are linked to a selected one). But the first step is just to include a hyperlink connected to one task that can go to another task.

When I add an effort in a subtask, the parent task shows up in Effort per day/week/month viewers, cluttering the effort list.

Tiny Window w/ current tracked task, recent task list, other shortcuts
Really helpful would be a tiny window showing which task was currently tracking time, which could sit over other windows at the top of the screen. A click would give a drop-down of all other active task, and you could select another task, to change to tracking time against that task. So, when working on task A and an email comes from someone for task B, you can switch quickly, then switch back to A after dealing with the email.
There should also be a button to open the main window.46 votes -
Drag & drop tasks into daily calendar including individual grouping & sorting
often the task lists are very long... and you know that you won´t do it all at the day it was originally scheduled... for this a drag & drop function into the daily calendar would be helpful to arrange the things you really will or want to do today. within this drag & drop arrangement there should be the possibility to re-group and re-sort the tasks to create an actual todo list for the day, keeping the not moved tasks in the general list a s pending...
further I must say that the actual data input is not really user…9 votes -
Daily Time Totals
I would like to be able to track effort for a task on a daily basis along with the total time spent.
The daily time would obviously be recorded in the Total Time, but would reset at the end of the of day or when I mark a daily task complete.A seperate column header for "Time Spent Today" would be great.
I would also like to see a running total for all effort for all tasks for the day, possibly in the status bar.
This would allow me to quickly see how much of my time was being tracked…5 votes -
when setting planned time, mechanism for spreading out tasks
When a new task has to be created, one of my first concern is "When can I do it ?" Eventually, I specify a date but I don't really know what is my workload for that day.
So I suggest :
* a mecanism that would give a warning if a threshold of X number of budgeted time (or a percentage of the day) is passed per day
* consequently, a way to spot the next free window for the budgeted task14 votes -
Keep efforts when sub-task is deleted
To keep the number of subtask down i often want to delete minor tasks/todo items, but keep the effort. I would be nice if deletion of subtasks could move efforts to the parent-task. so total time consuming was stil keept.

Save and reapply custom layouts
Why not add a possibility to save the settings for:
- columns shown
- view setting (list | tree / all | any checked / ...)°
- sort order
- filter settings
- viewers visible
- categories chosen
If then there is a drop down box with the list of saved layout settings, you can easily switch between different layouts !° now these settings only can be set by a drop down box on the viewers toolbar. If the viewers window is small, you can't see it. Maybe the choices also could be added to the 'View' menu, so…

Column showing only one selected category instead of all categories
It would be nice to be able to add columns showing only one category instead of just all categories.
This opens many possibilities:
- easy toggling a category on/off
- sortingWhen a category has subcategories, the category column could show just the subcategories. If then there is possibility to make subcategories unique (choosing one subcategory unmarks the other subcategories), it's near of having custom user fields, enabling:
- easy choosing a subcategory
- sorting on subcategories19 votes -
Automatic change of default effort end-date
When entering "historical" effort you can select a date (and start-hour) back in time, and set the check-mark to enter end-time.
When you set the check-mark, it would be nice if the default end-date was set to the selected start date.3 votes -
Copy tasks as simple text to the clipboard
It would be really nice to copy tasks names from the "Tasks" list using Ctrl+C as simple text, so it would be possible to insert it somewhere else, in the editor for example.

Import the senders email address and/or name
I think it would be useful to Import the senders email address and/or name. This would help when following up on completed tasks.

Store data in SQL database
Add an option to connect to an SQL database and store all task data in it. Obviously, data also should be stored locally as a read-only backup in case the database server is down, and eventually to speed up things.

Move TaskCoach.ini from the .home directory to the Library directory in the Mac version
Might we consider putting the Mac file location information in the FAQ section
of this Group Forum AND taskcoach.org? Might save someone else the
near-heart-attack that I suffered?As an aside, it doesn't look to me as if the
User Prefs are saved in a "Mac-like" manner, i.e., in a
"<username>/Library/Preferences/TaskCoach.plist," or a folder within that
Preferences folder? Are they also saved as part of the (what would be in the
Windows version) .tsk file?Hi! I've copied and pasted this from Messages section (Mac OSX Snow Leopard- Lost All Files!), as requested by Frank.
"The TaskCoach.ini file is saved in…

Completed Tasks view per time period
It would be nice to have an option to create a view for all completed task accoroding to dates (start date and end date) that will be provided by the user. It will be helpful for creating a "Monthly Report" or "Weekly Report", for example, of completed tasks.

Save notes without closing the note/task window
Now, to save a note/task it is necessary to close the window. If we had a "save" button in the note/task window, then notes could be saved without closing.
