Check out how easily github lets you add images to an issue (start writing any issue, then drag or ctrl-v-paste an image into the textarea).

I wish I could do this on a checkvist item. The workflow would be:
1. start typing an item
2. find an image somewhere, maybe by taking a screenshot or doing 'Copy Image' on another browser page
3. ctrl-v in my checkvist item
4. now we have an image attachment to the item

    Thanks! Yes, Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V for attachments would be a very nice enhancement. On our to-do list :)
    Drag-n-drop already works when you are not editing. Just drag a file to any list item. There's also a way to attach an image while editing - type img: and upload the file. There's a quick demonstration of the feature, Attachments in Checkvist

    I didn't know about DnD, but it seems to make a link instead of an image even when I drag in an image.

    I'm excited about dragging more links into my list, though, since I am often pasting in urls (the slow way).

    Actually, when you drag an image to the list item, it attaches the image to it (works the same way as for any file).
    If you want to embed the picture into your outline - use 'img:' for editing list item text and it will offer the name of the attached image as an option.
    Hope, this helps :)

I'm really enjoy using checkvist, you are adding great features very quickly.

I'm really enjoy using checkvist, you are adding great features very quickly.  What I feel is missing is more use cases.  How are people using Checkvist?  What are some recommend workflows?  How many lists do you have? User Stories will not only help those of use already using Checkvist to be more effective, but attract more non-technical customers. I like to keep my lists at a minimum.  I only split out for sharing but I'd prefer not to. Here are my lists: * Inbox:  This is where zapier based integrations go.  I have Jira tickets and emails tagged with "!action" going to list which I process daily. * The List:  This is my primary list.  Everything is here.  I use sub-nodes for different areas. * Honey Do:  This is the list my wife and I share to make sure we know what we both want done around the house. * "Client Project" - I have a few Lists I share with clients (Free lance web developer). I"m looking to write a more detailed blog post. How are your l...

Hello friends

Hello friends, We are considering to change behaviour of move up/down command using ctrl+arrows for lists with hierarchy. The new approach is available on our beta site, https://beta.checkvist.com . Could you please try it out and tell us what you think? Thanks! https://beta.checkvist.com

Hello friends!

Hello friends! I'd like to ask for your opinion regarding multi-line text editing. This suggestion comes from one of our Russian-speaking customers Dolina Zamkova so here is a translated abstract of our email conversation. Current problem: When you write multi-line text, you must press 'Shift-Enter' first, then use 'Enter' to start a new line, then 'Ctrl-Enter' to submit the text. Wouldn't it be easier to have a setting that will allow using Enter to always write multi-line texts, and always submit on 'Ctrl-Enter', like you do it in text messengers? So we could add a new account-wide setting, on the Settings page: () Finish editing by pressing 'Ctrl-Enter' (convenient for multi-line text) What do you think? Do you write multi-line texts in Checkvist at all? Other thoughts of how we could make it better? :)
