Dear community.

Dear community.
I'm intrigued how CheckVist accomplished the following:
①　edit task opens a textarea　√
②　pressing enter submits　√
③　typing Japanese doesn't submit on the first enter key-stroke!!!

I understand 1 and 2, but how do they accomplish 3?
With a normal "text-input" I can accomplish this because enter is the default behaviour to submit the form, and the browser knows to not submit when typing Japanese.
But CheckVist did it with a textarea! A textarea needs a custom way to submit on enter, like a keystroke handler (on keydown or something), but it clashes with typing Japanese........

Does anyone know how they did it?

    Apparently it's possible by using KEYDOWN instead of KEYUP to trigger the enter to submit form.

    With keydown on enter it won't be triggered when typing Japanese, unless you do a second enter.

    Actually, we didn't do anything special for Japanese, it works by a coincidence. And I'm glad it works correctly for you :)

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
