Any Toggl users here? I'm putting together an integration so the toggl (Chrome extension) button ( https://github.com/toggl/toggl-button ) is displayed for tasks on a Checkvist list. It's dead simple (a few lines of javascript), but I'm slightly torn on the best way to handle one aspect: whether or not toggl is shown for a particular list. It can't be always-on, as it adds too much clutter for non-projecty lists (who wants a timer button for the carrots on their grocery list?). What I have now is that if any task on a list is tagged #toggl, then all tasks on that list will have the toggl button. A few alternatives I canvassed were: - display toggl buttons only on subtasks of a task tagged with #toggl - display toggl buttons only on focused (hoisted) tasks - find some other way to indicate that all of a list's tasks should have the button, eg. something encoded in the list's name I think what I have now is the most convenient of these (I don't want to hav...
Hello, thanks for the suggestion.
ReplyDeleteDo you use global list formatting or smart syntax like [1]?
Best,
Kirill Maximov I use both but more often the smart syntax. This would be a big improvement for me
ReplyDeleteThanks. Not trivial to implement, unfortunately, but will add it to the enhancements list regarding Markdown.
ReplyDeleteKirill Maximov Sorry for the late reply. I use "numbers" in "list style". And besides numbering, nested list indentation is also necessary in my case.
ReplyDeleteWhat I usually do is, I take notes with checkvist both on my phone and computer as project is in progress. And I will copy the markdown export to typora for final editing while inserting some screenshots. But without parent list numbering and child list indentation, the relationship between parent and child lists would be lost.
So it would be great if a list like the following one
//List starts
# Test #
first note.
second note:
- second note nested list item 1.
- second note nested list item 2.
third note.
//List ends
could be instead exported like following(if list numbering is turned on):
//List starts
# Test #
1. first note.
2. second note:
- second note nested list item 1.
- second note nested list item 2.
3. third note.
//List ends
This would save me some work in recovering the strucrure in typora. Despite this, checkvist is really convient in a way that it encourages me to take notes.
Best.
Hello Jiasen,
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for your feedback. We'll try to see how we could allow combining different lists styles implied by Checkvist and mix them with the markdown markup. What you're suggesting makes sense, but only if the second note would have sub-list numbering disabled with [*] prefix. Currently it does not work, unfortunately.
I'd appreciate if you vote/watch this feature request:

Thank you!
