  1. I order my task list by Due date. This means of course that the next tasks to be done are at the top of the list.

    When I mark a recurring task as Complete, the task list keeps focus on this task.

    However this task is now far down the list of tasks, and so the window of the list of tasks is no longer showing the next tasks to do at the top of the list.

    So every time I mark a task as Complete, the task list shifts focus away from the next tasks to be done, and…

    I’m sorry, this is not doable the way Task Coach works. Recurring tasks are done by changing the dates when you mark complete and not keeping the completed state. So, when you mark a recurring task complete, it becomes a task with later dates and not complete.

    There are a couple workarounds though:

    (A) put the tasks as subtasks of an overall recurring task. Do NOT mark the subtasks as recurring, only the top-level task. I do this for a task called “daily”. When I mark a task complete in this case, it STAYS complete (and stays in the listing in the same place!) then, when I later mark the top-level task complete (or it automatically does when all the subtasks are done), THEN it resets the dates of all the subtasks for the next time.

    That’s probably how you want it to work, but other much more clunky option…

  2. Would you be willing to publish your app in f-droid android foss repository? (I do not have play store and would be nice for f-droid community)

    I’m sorry we can’t. The real Task Coach program is only for macOS, GNU/Linux, and Windows. The “Task Coach” program in the Google Play store is not made by us! It was made by someone else wanting an Android version and who worked without directly collaborating. They also have not yet released the software as free software!

    We need to sometime try to go back to reach out to them to get it freed. But it’s not our software. This is quite awkward as you could understand.

    But, we would certainly put Task Coach in F-Droid if we had made an Android version…

    Anyone who wants to make a full free-software Android version would be welcome to and we would be happy to collaborate where we can.

    Backups are now (as of v. 1.4) always on anyway. We’re not going to make a limited schedule. There’s already backups being made automatically, and you can restore from a backup with File > manage backups

    Best,

  13. Hello and thanks for that great piece of software.

    If I'm not mistaking, there is no way to quickly select all categories (or unselect all). Would it be possible to add it? This is very useful for workflow, for instance I use Taskcoach both for work and private stuff, so I have one category private but many for work. Quickly selecting all then unselecting private is a quick way to only view work-related tasks while at work.

    Best regards,

    Thomas

  14. I just migrated from Abstractspoon's ToDoList and I use the task description a lot. It would be perfect to have a pane that simply displays an edit window with the description for the currently selected task.

    This would be accomplished by this existing request:

    https://taskcoach.uservoice.com/forums/26465-desktop-version-windows-linux-mac-of-task-coach/suggestions/664151-task-reference-number

    Otherwise, here are a couple related requests:

    https://taskcoach.uservoice.com/forums/26465-desktop-version-windows-linux-mac-of-task-coach/suggestions/385311-task-counter

    https://taskcoach.uservoice.com/forums/26465-desktop-version-windows-linux-mac-of-task-coach/suggestions/313688-add-custom-fields

    Thanks for your feedback, I hope we can get to these some day. For now, there are workarounds (as a comment in one of those links mentions) such as recording your own code in descriptions.

    Cheers

  20. It would be nice to have possibility to direct input value for time spent. I mean something like there's for budget. Basically click on task line and add time without complicated input from details.
