    Agreed...  this is encouraging!

    On a side note, I only just now have realized that one should scroll by placing one's finger on the far left side of the screen... this area will not cause inadvertent selections of items in your list... maybe some on-screen indication of this could be made?  Perhaps I'm the only one who has not noticed this.  The apparent downside of being right-handed...

    Thanks, Michael Reville, Jim McGuire !

    Jim, is it problematic to have a selection move when scrolling the page? Why so, could you explain?

    Kirill Maximov I can try...  

    If I have the list:
    ----------------------------------
    The Cat in the Hat
         Thing One
         Thing Two
    ----------------------------------

    While scrolling, if I have an item selected (Thing Two),  I could end up with:

    -----------------------------------
    Thing Two
    The Cat in the Hat
         Thing One
    ------------------------------------

    Of course, one would only scroll with a longer list... but I think you get the idea.  But if I scroll by using the far left of the screen - next to the indented items - I find there is no accidental item selecting, and no possible re-ordering of the items with unintended dragging / dropping.

    If some visual cue were made for the user of this "scroll area", I'll bet there would be more happiness among those using the mobile client.

    Michael Reville We've made a couple of improvements to increase the interface responsiveness, especially on iOS. Glad you noticed :)
    Jim McGuire Hmm. I thought I've fixed occasional list item move on scrolling. What kind of mobile device you're using?

    Kirill Maximov, a OnePlus One, running Cyanogen 12.1.  It may be improved, but it's a very definite problem for me.  Thanks for asking.

    Jim McGuire Thanks, I see. Do you use Cyanogen Browser or Chrome? Looks like we'll have to use a solution like this, though don't want to: http://checkvist.uservoice.com/forums/239385-checkvist-mobile/suggestions/7142781-use-grab-bars-at-right-to-move-items-use-long-pre

    Kirill Maximov I use the Chrome browser.  But upon seeing your question, I tried the Cyanogen Browser... it's not so different, as far as I can tell.  Do you really need to implement grab bars?  I noticed that area on the left of the browser screen works very well for scrolling... if it was somehow highlighted in some way, no additional screen real estate would have to be sacrificed...

    Jim McGuire We're also considering to add extra space on the right part of the screen, to enable safe scrolling there. We'll see whether it will work.

    Hello Edo,

      So far only reordering via tap-and-hold is supported. 
      Other gestures are being considered, your suggestions are welcome :)

       Best,

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? :)
