Is versioning planned? That, and a diff, could kill google docs for collaboration (for me)
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? :)
Hi, this is one of the most voted requests (I've seen you've voted), but we don't have close plans or any estimates to implement it yet.
ReplyDeleteCheckvist offers daily backup of all of your lists in the PRO plan, but this is mostly for backup and not suitable for document comparison, for instance.
Kirill Maximov argh, that's a pity. For a (crappier overall) product that does this ok look at airstory.co. They have a timeline that one can drag to go to past versions.
ReplyDeleteI imagine that would take serious architectural changes that may not work at all for checkvist. Something simpler would go a long way though.
This is closely linked to undo (my guess). It we could save the undo history on a task, that would be wonderful too.
Let's be honest, writing is mostly about battling with revisions :) This part is not well supported in checkvist, even though I adore mostly everything else.
nuclino does this too
ReplyDeleteHello Jose Quesada, thanks a lot for the reference to airstory.co and nuclino. We'll definitely take a look when we'll be going to implement it. Unfortunately, cannot promise anything regarding timeframe.
ReplyDeleteThanks again,
One other thought: you guys have the sleleton for a chat app. If every 'task' is now a message, you are almost there. The main difference is that history is immutable in a chat. But I'm really tempted to use it like this for a while. It's already better than most chat offerings
ReplyDeleteYou would need to provide some simple user management though. This may help getting in the 'business' market, one company pays for a group of people. This is not possible now, right?
And don't forget emojis :P Just kidding.
Hello Jose, thanks for the suggestion, but at the moment we don't plan to add chat communications. Checkvist has quite a different focus. But, you're not alone in your request :) https://checkvist.uservoice.com/forums/2121-checkvist-web/suggestions/410608-add-a-little-chat-widget-like-in-gmail
ReplyDeleteRegarding the user management, Checkvist offers some simple group plans and offers list sharing in batches: https://checkvist.com/auth/help#teamAccounts
As for emojis, you can use UTF emojis, read more in the comments to this request: https://checkvist.uservoice.com/forums/2121-checkvist-web/suggestions/5690255-emoji-support
Thanks :)
