The new feature of searching through notes is very helpful, but there's one problem: it often leaves a very cluttered screen because the notes expand when there's a hit. It would be much better if the search highlighted items where there was a hit in the note, but did not automatically expand the note. Alternatively, there could be an option not to search in notes.

    Hello Charles Heckscher,

    We're considering adding an 'sn' keyboard shortcut which would show/hide all notes on the page. After a filtering with expanded notes, it would collapse all the notes.

    What do you think, would it solve a problem in your case?

    We really would not want to add more options and think that expanding matches in notes are better than highlighting only a note mark.

    Thanks,

    Yes, that would do it.

    Just following up here - I am having a lot of trouble now with search because it opens a lot of long notes; I have to collapse items one by one before I can find what I am looking for. You suggested you might do the keyboard shortcut for collapsing all notes -- will that be available soon?? (an option to not expand notes in a search would be even better - they are already identified with a highlight, which is sufficient.)

    Hello Charles Heckscher, we definitely going to fix this issue soon (I mean adding 'sn' shortcut). Hope to provide the fix for testing on beta.checkvist.com this weekend.

    Hello,

    Just wanted to let you know that 'sn' keyboard shortcut is not on the production site as well.

    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? :)
