Hello, friends! Please help us test the new feature - multi-selection (bulk operations).


Hello, friends! Please help us test the new feature - multi-selection (bulk operations).
Now on http://beta.checkvist.com (same credentials, same data):
- Multi-select and copy/paste several list items at once
- Indent/un-indent
- Ctrl+Up/Down to re-order list items
- Close/open several tasks
- Delete

Do you like how it works? Any glitches? Support for adding attributes (like tags, due dates, etc) is in the works. 
Thanks!

    On MacOSX ctrl+up/down arrows are related to "Mission Control" app (http://www.danrodney.com/mac/) or do I miss something ?
    Multiple copies/deletions work fine, as well as indent/outdent

    Multi-selection + shift&mouse to re-order does not work

    Philippe Demoulin Thanks for trying this! On Mac you can use Cmd+arrows for reordering, instead of Ctrl+arrows. Shift+mouse reordering doesn't work, we haven't implemented it. It is rather tricky, may be a bit later, if there will be a high demand.

    You can use Shift+arrows to create a flat selection, and use Ctrl+Click (Cmd+Click on Mac) to exclude some items from selection.

    Ctrl+Click... will there be a mouseless alternative?

    Ralf Hauber Do you mean something like:
    * use up/down arrows to highligh items
    * press "sk" (for Selection Keep) to add the item to the selection ?
    * press "sd" (for Selection Disgard) to remove item from the current selection ? Note: "ss" for Selection Suppress is already used ;)
    * apply action to all the selected items, like dd or...
    ?

    We tried to make the behaviour similar to the one in the Explorer/Finder, when doing multiple selection there. This way for multiple selection should remain by default. 

    But the idea of having a separate shortcut for a sticky selection is an interesting one.
    May be 'st' could work to toggle a sticky selection, which preserves during navigating.

    We'll think about this, thanks for idea!

    P.S. In the meanwhile, you can try setting/removing tags on multiple selection with 'tt' and 'ct' shortcuts.

    Yes, 'st' toggle is a great idea.

    Philippe Demoulin Yes, I meant something like that.
    Kirill Maximov I agree that consistency is important, and that's a good way to select multiple items. In addition, 'st' sounds good.

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

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
