It would be great to have a shortcut (I suggest "rf") to refresh a filter. My daily review workflow is to search for ^today, postpone some tasks to tomorrow or later in the week, and when I'm done I would like to be able to type "rf" to refresh the filter quickly to see what I've got left.

My current workaround is to go back to the filter, add a character, wait a bit, and then remove it - but it's not as convenient as a quick shortcut.

    Can't you just refresh the browser, leaving all settings as they are?

    Sure I can, it takes forever though - hence the request. I;m looking for a quick refresh.

    It looks like a performance problem on the Checkvist side. How much this 'forever' takes? How large your list is?

    Large lists of mine take some time. A little over 4.000 tasks take approx. 4-5 seconds XHR, then a few seconds to process, ready after approx. 9 seconds.

    For a full refresh (F5 to redisplay) it takes about 6-7 seconds, compared to my current workaround (hoist into an item, then hoist back) takes 1-2 seconds - and I'm guessing that's because it's done via JavaScript instead of having to do a round trip to the server.

    Ralf Hauber Thanks a lot for the details. We could add some caching of the lists on the browser, to avoid initial delay + there is some room for rendering optimization (do not render collapsed items). I hope to address this in this uservoice issue: checkvist.uservoice.com - Slow if there are > 1000 items in the list

    Xavier B Is hoist/un-hoist is a suitable workaround for you? Personally, I'm trying to avoid using large lists and I have multiple lists for different contexts.

    hoist/un-hoist seems OK, I found that workaround after my initial post :)

    Have voted on the idea.

    I guess large lists are rather an exception (Kirill Maximov might have stats), so I don't complain. With some care (workarounds) and a fast processor it's ok. However, performance improvements are always welcome. :)

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? :)
