3 day - Wednesday. Select a target parent when 'mm'moving a task


3 day - Wednesday. Select a target parent when 'mm'moving a task
Some features are plain usability enhancements that should have been done ages ago. Still, when you have a (very) limited number of working hands and hours, you have to choose, and some improvements wait for years to get implemented.

This one waited for 3 years, but here it is, finally. Now you can select a target parent when moving a task with 'mm' shortcut.

Just arrow-right to dig into the target list, and arrow-left to move a level back.

Enjoy! :)

    Been waiting for this for ages! Is it a paid-only feature? I don't see it on my free account

    Nicely done :) Would be perfect if the current list was available to move things around
    without cut/paste or arrow keys. I'm being greedy now!

    It is a valid request, but it is a bit more complicated, because we need to filter out those tasks in the selection (to avoid moving a task under itself). May be a bit later :)

    This is also a good one! Only that the "arrow-right" is always displayed, even if there are no sub-items. (Probably a performance issue.)

    Hello Stuart Gibbons and others, could you please take a look how it currently works on the https://beta.checkvist.com. We've tried to make 'mm' working with the current list as well.
    Thanks!

    Checkvist excellent! seems to work well. You are able to select a child of the node you're moving but if you select it then nothing happens, so no harm done.

    Checkvist - small bit of feedback after using this for a couple of weeks. Would be good if what you'd typed into the filter textbox cleared when you navigated into one of the list items. e.g. I start typing 'ho' and the top level list filters down to a couple of lists like 'home list' and 'household chores'. I navigate into 'home list' but then it's blank because it's still trying to filter the next level down on 'ho' and there's no items matching. The filter has done it's job each time you select at each level hasn't it?

    Hi Stuart Gibbons , you're absolutely right, I've faced this problem myself a couple of days ago. The fix is already on beta.checkvist.com, and I hope to release it to production on Monday.

    Thanks a lot!

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? :)
