  1. I would like to say: show me only the tasks that are in each of the selected categories - like a facade-search. At the moment all task that are at least in one of the selected categories are displayed.

  2. I would be great if there where a free text field for each task. The text field is perfect to use if one have to send regular status reports to 3rd person. This text field should also be in the "front page" column view so it could be exported.

  3. I suggest you create a feature that lets you adjust the position of a task by being able to drag and drop. This idea is split out from the "Better control over task order" which contains many different suggestions.

  5. When viewing your day in the calendar, it shows only the hours from 8 till 17. Some tasks are thus not shown when I try to get a daily overview. It would be nice if the whole day was shown, or to have an option to select the hours ourself.

  6. Hi,
    The function export is limited to the title. Would be good if the description, categories are added as optional during the "export" function.

  7. This is already possible, since I changed it inadvertently, but find myself unable to change it back..
    I would like to change the order of the tabs (description, effort etc) in 'Edit task'. I can drag the tabs, but am unable to save this.

  10. the checkbox "hide composite tasks" is disabled for calendar view. It would, however, be very useful if one wants to see only the concrete small tasks to do for each day.

  11. ABSOLUTELY MUST HAVE:

    I need a field for location where work is to be done & ability to sort, select on it, etc. For anyone who does work in more than one place location is a key organizing criterion.

  12. On the task viewer, when the user switches from "Tree of Tasks" to "List of Tasks", there should be an option (maybe a checkbox) to hide root tasks that have children.
    I consider root tasks as something that will only be accomplished when all children are completed. If you have a lot of tasks, when you are on "List of Tasks" mode, a lot of "garbage" appears with root tasks that I don't want to see because they are not my current focus.

    In another words, if a task has subtasks open, I should be able to hide it, until…

  16. Per GTD principles, this filter (applied to a task list view) would show the highest priority task from each project. (How you define a project is another matter. Any set of adjacent non-composite tasks?)

  17. I would like to have some type of icon or indicator in the Tasks window to indicate that a filter has been applied. I've been pulling my hair out trying to figure out why certain tasks weren't showing up and then I finally realized it was because I had a filter applied in the Categories window. When you apply a filter in Categories, it indicates that a filter has been applied in the status bar for that window, but the task windows don't have any such indication. I would like to see it in the status bar, as well as…

    DONE. v. 1.3.21 has customizable toolbars and the “clear all filters” menu item is now a toolbar button which is present by default. When no filters are on, this will be grayed out, so you can quickly see whether filters are active!

  18. I would like to have an option for a task that allows its progress to be automatically calculated based on the progress of subtasks.

    For this to be accomplished, it would be necessary to tells what importance (in percentage) each subtask has on the main task.

    For example, let's assume I have a main task (Task1) with 2 subtasks (TaskA and TaskB). I tell the software that TaskA has 75% of importance and TaskB has 25%. When I put the progress of TaskA in 50% and 10% of TaskB, the Task1 should display 40% (50% * 75% + 10% *…

    Please don’t use all caps, it means you’re shouting.

    Also, this is already possible. Start tracking the first tasks normally. Then, right-click the second task and use “New effort” to create a effort for that second task. If you don’t enter a stop time, you’ll be tracking two tasks at a time.

    Cheers, Frank
