The latest version doesn't save the task list when minimised to systray.
Auto-save is ticked and I've got 2 lists - neither of them save.
I do get the question to save if I exit tho.
Thanks for this great tool!
Cheers,
dan.

What's the status on this? This bug is quite annoying for me in an otherwise excellent tool. Keep it up!

I have thought about a quicker way of adding tasks.
My suggestion is to use the F5 key for adding tasks,
and F6 for adding subtasks. This will make it much quicker
to come up with a new task tree from scratch.
The problem is there are four ways of adding tasks:
- First in list
- Last in list
- Before selected
- After selected
I prefer to use "New task After selected task" and
my option doesn't have any shortcut, not even a triple-key combination...
(Maybe I am the only one who add tasks this way!!)
One way to assign the F5 and F6 keys default options, for new tasks
and new subtasks respectively, is in Preferences.
Another way is to change the "new task" menu,
Divide it into separate menus for "new task" and "new subtask".
The new "new task" menu looks something like this:
Add New Task F5
-----------------------------
x New Task at Top of Selected Task's Parent Ctrl+N
New Task at Bottom of Selected Task's Parent Ctrl+Alt+N
New Task Before Selected Task
New Task After Selected Task
and the "new subtask" menu looks like:
Add New Subtask F6
------------------------------
x New Subtask First in Selected Task's Subtask List Ctrl+Shift+N
New Subtask Last in Selected Task's Subtask List
The first menu item in each menu is the button default item,
which add tasks/subtasks the way the user prefer (default option).
F5 and F6 can be used for the default option.
The menu items under the separator set the default option
and might also add a new task/subtask
directly the new way.
Thanks for this brilliant tool!
Cheers, mate!

what a nuisance all you keyboard power-users are!
can't you just learn to use a mouse like everyone else?!
if its okay with you, what i'll do is recognize your essential desire to be able to control keyboard shortcuts and see if i can come up with a neat solution to that specific need since this would be a far more flexible solution (and one that many people may come to expect).
in the meantime (if you can be bothered), you could always modify the code directly. if you're interested, have a look in CToDoListDlg::PreTranslateMessage().

If you save the task list to HTML then the colours in the HTML are the colours that you've assigned using "Edit the selected task's colour...". If you've changed to the colour being determined by the task's priority then what you see in the app is coloured differently from the HTML version.

you're quite right, roger
the html export is definitely something i've let slide and its next on my todolist (actually it what i'm working on currently).
you'll also notice that '% completion' is not correctly specified if it's to be calculated as an average of the subtask completion.
it'll be the release after next because i'm going to do a bug release soon.

hi oldworm,
i just did as you suggested and the file looks fine.
can you send me a .gif image of part of the file as it appeared on your system and tell me what language version of windows you are using.

part of the problem here is that the email editor is translating the mappings itself, so i can't see what error you might be talking about.
could you describe the error when you look at the file in notepad.
thanks.

hi oldworm
i suspect this is a bogus line.
i probably was using CMaskEdit, then removed it but forgot to remove the #include.
try remarking it out and recompiling

This is a great tools. I am using more and more, beacuse of this my list is growing it would be graet if there is a way to assign each task an ID and have the ability to search this ID and text from the comments.
Thanks

hi ali,
some sort of 'find' functionality is definitely on my own todolist.
i'm just trying to find the time to design it properly.

hi Dan, great work on this app with all the new features in the last couple or releases!!!
A small suggestion:
I think it would be nice to show the "percentage complete" as a sort of progressbar. At the moment i have changed your code a bit, so this works with me now. It's a bar, in the priority color, that's drawn under the percentage text. For an example see: http://users.skynet.be/get-real/ToDoList-progress.gif[^]
I think this would be cool to have in ToDoList: it shows both priority and progress at once.
This is the code i use right now, in CToDoCtrl::OnGutterDrawItem:
CRect rProgress = rItem;<br />
rProgress.right = rProgress.left + ((rItem.Width()*nPercent)/100);<br />
pNCGDI->pDC->FillSolidRect(rProgress, CalcPriorityColor(tdi.nPriority));

an interesting idea, thanks.
i may add it as a preference controlled feature.

You changed the order of the release notes! Damn you for confusing me!
Despite that its still a great project.
Have retained my assistant as the coffee option still needs opimising.

At the risk of cluttering the screen, I'd like to be able to see at least the Person Assigned in the tree view (maybe as an icon rather than a text field) and even the first line of Notes (but if I had to choose, I'd go for Assigned).
Maybe I'm the only person here using it with a multi-person team...

>> Maybe I'm the only person here using it with a multi-person team...
i don't think so andy,
and i'm currently starting to introduce multi-user functionality, such as prompting to reload when the timestamp changes.
any further suggestions would be appreciated.
regarding your 2 suggestions:
1. adding a preference to display the assignee in a column is easy. using an icon instead would require UI changes (probably in the preferences) to support choosing and assigning an image to each team member.
doing this would also allow me to display assignees in a combobox to easy of assignment too.
is this what you were thinking of?
2. there is a preference to display the comments text after the task name but unfortunately the horz scrollbar does not (yet) take account of this.

When I said, using it with a team, I meant that only I had access to the file (and I just tell people what they are doing next) - so it isn't really "multi-user" as you would define it. Sorry about the confusion.
Regarding point 1, that would be fine. The only reason I suggested icons was to stop people with long names causing you to scroll every time. I'd happily use initials to avoid this.
Regarding point 2, cool, I am eagerly anticipating that one.
Keep up the good work!

dan,
is this the better place to report defects or would you prefer elsewhere (say email or ...) ?
defect (imo): i'd expect the functionality to be identical whether i press the button (i.e. invoke the "menu" ) or i press the hot-key. that's not the case w/ Simple Mode. press the button and it works as expected (i.e. the button sticks). but if the button is in "show simple mode" mode, and you press ^M, and go to other project tabs, simple mode reappears.
hth,
jean
p.s. i keep wanting to say "wow what a cool program" every time i write here, but it could be wearing thin.
