Re: List selector (default to alphabetical, not "last updated")


Re: List selector (default to alphabetical, not "last updated")
Recently started using checkvist and overall impressed. I have set up a list for each active client and project (~10 lists). A very annoying issue is that the "Lists" menu item displays the lists in "last updated" order. Since i bounce between several lists all the time, this semi-random sorting style forces me to rescan this list each time looking for a particular list. It's nerve racking on both the desktop and even more so on mobile. "Last updated" is a good sorting style for items that are not used frequently. Please let us select the default sort order for the list selector (alphabetical by default). Thanks.

    Hello Anthony,

       Thanks for the feedback and for the suggestion. I'm afraid, I don't think we'll implement this soon. Checkvist is build around the keyboard, so in your case I'd suggest to start typing the list/client name and press Enter than look for the specific name in the list.

       Also, you can file your suggestion to https://checkvist.uservoice.com 

       Thanks!

    That's a shame. Have you tried using checkvist with multiple lists on a cell phone? The list order changes each time and i have to search for the list i'm looking for instead of simply going to where i know the list will be in the order (e.g. 3rd one down ).

    Actually, for the cell phone we're working on alternative UI. Please check http://m.checkvist.com or (older variant) https://checkvist.com/m/

    Also, in the current UI you can navigate to the index page by clicking the logo and use A-Z sorting there.

    Hope, this helps.

    that's what i'm using .... please try using checkvist with 10 lists and you will quickly realize this pain point. And sorry, no, i don't want to click sort each time. I have an idea, can you simply use the sort order defined here https://checkvist.com/checklists#main .... at least that would be consistent.

    Sorry, you're using m.checkvist.com?
    Then yes, it makes sense to use chosen sorting from the main page.
    I just don't want to use it in the ll popup.

Hello friends

Hello friends, Recently we've got a request to introduce a shortcut to move items to the first/last position on the current level of hierarchy: https://checkvist.uservoice.com/forums/2121-general/suggestions/15758854-shortcut-to-send-an-item-at-the-top-of-the-current And this bring me to a thought to use the current shortcut (Ctrl+Home/Ctrl+End) for this purpose. But with an extension - if an item is already on the top position on the current hierarchy level, Ctrl+Home would move item one level up (and put it at the beginning of this level). This will break the current behaviour (moving item to the beginning of the list), but probably will make this shortcut more useful. What do you think? https://checkvist.uservoice.com/forums/2121-general/suggestions/15758854-shortcut-to-send-an-item-at-the-top-of-the-current

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? :)
