Dan,
on the CodeProject website it says that the Android app "Tdl Todo List" is non-Unicode only but it is not true. I am using it with a Unicode tasklist and it works fine... Can you correct it not to mislead others?
Thanks, M.

For the moment while in Calendar view you can edit tasks with dates only, but if you for example want to assign a date to a certain task you'll have to go to Task Tree/List views and do it there. For Gantt view everything is ok but is it feasable to add/combine Task Tree view and Calendar view, what is your opinion, Dan? I'm attaching a sample screenshot of an abandoned software called Life Balance, used to work with it for some time, probably, it can give a clearer idea.

Hello, would it be possible to enhance the filtering in a list view to show only top N priority levels?
I mean e.g. only top 3 levels, so that if the top is 9 it would filter out 9,8 and 7 and if the top would be 7 it would filter out 7,6 and 5. It might help to simplify the list and focus only on the most important... Thanks.

When exporting tasks to csv file, parent task id field is not output for topmost tasks, causing fileds after that are put one filed left as those of tasks which have parents.
Position Title Task ID Parent Task ID Priority Risk Percent Complete Time Estimate Creation Date ...
1 TopTask 98 5 0 0 75 H 2013/6/17 ...
1.1 SubTask 27 98 5 0 0 25 H ...

Open a TDL - select GANTT - press ESC - the display becomes empty.

This is the best todolist I've ever used,very simple and efficient.
I do not know if it's a little better to calculate the due date by time est. and start date automatically.
MS project do it like that way, we define some specific tasks(standard process) with a specific period of time spent, combine these tasks into a project and define the dependency, then we put the start date of the first task, the due date of the whole project and sub task will be calculated automatically.
Another suggestion is for the dependency, now it's link to the task ID, we copy a template project(with sub tasks and their dependency),paste to be a new project in the same .tdl file, the sub task's dependency is still link to the template project's sub task. Is it possible to maintain the dependency relationship between the sub tasks, no matter how we copy and paste.

Hi dan,
Please find the last update of French translation here[^].
(I've checked the link, it should be public).
I've also noticed two strange lines:
"Task5" "" "label.1301" => '5' instead of 's' I guess => found also into German file
"S(emaines" "" "menu.32771" => looks like the French word 'Semaines' => found only into French file, so maybe it should be "Weeks" "Semaines" "menu.32771" ?
Best

I have a task with many subtasks. When I completed all the subs, the main task gets dimmed as expected and wanted. I just got another subtask to add to it and when I added it the main task gets bold as expected and wanted. However, when I collapsed the subtasks under the main task, the main task dims again, not expected nor wanted. When I expand the main tasks the subtask is dimmed but not checked as completed. When I click on that subtask name, it gets bold again as expected.
This has not happened before and I just upgraded to TDL 6.7.B2 Beta Release.
As before, thanks for all the effort you guys put into this program. It is by far the best I have ever used.

When I showed TDL to a colleague he was impressed. However, he finally lost interest just because of this issue:
His understanding was that top priority should be '1' instead of '10'.
Creating a custom column has not resolved the problem because the default 'Priority' column is the basis for filter bar functionality.
Best way to solve this issue would be:
a) make the designations (in brackets after the priority number, like: 'med-high') editable
b) let the user decide how many priority levels he prefers (for some, 3 levels is more than enough)
c) let the user decide if the highest priority is assigned by the lowest or highest number
Thank you for considering,
Klaus
PS: I know that this topic has been addressed in the past.

Hello Dan,
please find below some issues or question about customs date filters.
A/Major issues
Please find below a sample TDL file and my ini file which contains my own customs date filters and a sample tasklist in order to test the issues.
http://depositfiles.com/files/i0hdv3xsl[^]
http://depositfiles.com/files/2152jjul9[^]
my customs date filters are :
* InLate : Display due tasks
* Active : Display "active" tasks (started or with a due date <= today)
* Active+next7d : Display "active" tasks + tasks which starts or finish within the next 7 days
* Active+NotSet : Display "active" tasks + task without start and due date
* NotStarted :Display not started tasks (start and finish after today or without any dates)
* NotSet : Dislpay Tasks without any dates
Globally it is working well, but there are 2 problems :
A.1/when I select my custom filter 'In late' which is supposed to display only task dues, (where the due date is < today), I have the parent task 'T_Not Set' which appears. While it don't match with my filter and should not appears
The same with 'Active' and 'Active+next7d'...
A.2/ Pb on the custom filter 'Not Started'. It is a complex filter with 'Or'/'And' lines.
A task not started is a task with :
- (a start date > today or a start date not set) AND (a due date > today or a due date not set)
Currently, It displays the tasks not started but also the tasks T_Active.1 and T_active.2, while they are started
I suppose that it is because my custom filter is not well interpreted (complex or/and sequences), but I'm sure that when you delivered it, this filter was working...
Others points :
B/ Question
What is the behavior if on a custom filter I tick the option 'Parent tasks' in the 'Including' combobox?
In my case, I just want to check the dates of the task leaves, So I have only ticked 'filtered-out tasks', but I'm not very sure about the right way to use it...
For your information, for the issues A.1 and A.2 I have tested with both options without any difference.
C/ Minor problem
I have created 5 custom filters, while only 4 appears in the 'Show combobox'
TDL used : 6.7 B2
Thank you for your return.

Dan, on version 6.7 B2,
when I fill in a value on 'Allocated to' field' on a PARENT task, then I filter on , the PARENT task appears, while it should not. (And Option 'Show all subtasks is not ticked')

Hello Dan,
I try to use the Gantt, and it is very very nice !
I have just noticed some things :
* When you use the mouse wheel the display of the gantt change (zomm or unzoomm) ,which is very great. However, the combobox is not changed in accordance. It is minor.
* The width of the first column 'Task' is a little bit short...
* Is it planned to display the % Complete in the bar as a progress bar, in order to see the progression ?
* It would be great to have a milestone management (just the display in gantt).
Indeed some tasks are just milestone or target date (task with just a due date, or just a start date, or sart date = due date).
So if we set the bar as a milestone , the bar would be a losange shape instead of a rectangle shape (like in ms-project)
thank you

Hi,
Does anyone know how to keep the rich text formating of comments when transforming TDL in XSL ?
I am currently trying to get html links and bullet points to appear in html produced by liste.xsl
Thanks for any useful hint

Dan,
I have my tasklist with a red triangle in the corner of the tab, but have no outstanding overdue tasks. Started, restarted app, computer etc - no joy. There are tasks that were completed late, but once completed, shouldn't the indicator disappear?
Best wishes,
Tom

Hey Dan,
First of all, love your software. But I have a problem now that is difficult to trace. We use ToDoList on 6 computers and store the .tdl file on the network. Now there's one computer that causes the .tdl file to become malformed. The size of the .tdl file becomes 0 bytes when this happens. Other users can't open or checkout the file anymore while the list is still visible on the computer causing the problem.
When restoring the file from the backup folder, no tasks are lost and the latest changes are there. But I don't want to restore the list every time.
Settings are the same on every computer. Automatic checkout is activated.
Problem is that I can't monitor the computer of my colleague (the computer that's causing the problem) constantly.
Does this problem sound familiar to you? Any ideas on how to trace this problem?

So far I've identified the following major features for 6.8:
- Rewrite the Calendar plugin to show tasks continuous between Start and Due dates.
- Add support for dragging Calendar tasks to change dates.
- Add support for dragging Gantt tasks to change dates.
- Add support for loading/saving tasks from/to an ODBC database connection.
- Add
Burndown Statistics/Metrics plugin.
- Create a Book exporter that will render a tasklist like a 'chaptered' book.
- Add preference to open TDL empty on startup.
- Add facility to hide views (eg Calendar) on a per-task and global basis.
- Implement Task Ownership
Feel free to reply with your suggestions below (rather than as separate posts).

Is there anywhere a TDL-file which
- has "all" entries in "all" combinations (Dates, Names, Comments, Flags, ...) and
- which can be used by everyone to test?
If not, lets discuss to create one ..

Dan:
Pardon my ignorance: there is some way to see all the new messages in the forum of TDL? (instead of having to go from page to page looking for the ones with the yellow sign that says "new")
Thanks!
