Hi

Hi,

Just rediscovered Checkvist and moving all my tasks from my current task manager. Wished I could find a combination of GQueues' keyboard functionality, and Workflowy's outlining zoom functions, and looks like I've now found it.

I did have one feature suggestion that I haven't seen in any other similar apps, which would make a big difference to me - it would be an extension to 'mm'. When I move an item to another list I'd like to select its position within the destination list. So possibly within the 'mm' dialog I could then navigation through that list to select the parent where the source item would go. All in one action and I stay focused on the list I was using. And it doesn't affect current 'mm' functionality as the default would be the root of the chosen list.

Rationale: I capture things in an Inbox list which is a combination of tasks, information, future reminders, links etc. I then have separate lists for each project. I now - and in every other application like this - have to then switch to the destination list, find the item I've just moved, then move it to where I need in the project structure. This would hugely reduce the number of steps, and time taken, to achieve this.

    Hello Stuart, that's great news that you're coming back to Checkvist, thanks :) 

    Regarding the contextual 'mm' feature - this is quite reasonable. We were asked about it before, and I hope we'll implement it in one of the next updates. Please vote for http://checkvist.uservoice.com/forums/2121-general/suggestions/7185001-allow-to-select-target-task-with-mm-shortcut

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? :)

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
