Hello Dan,
you have done a great Job with the release 7.1!
I would have questions to dealing with KANBAN based on list with multiple selection Option:
I you utilized Kanban to map Tasks to the field "Assigned To" (this is the Group of persons responsive to resolve the Task) then the follwing happens:
1. If there has been an assignment made earlier using the Task Input/Edit form, then the KANBAN view would not pick up that earlier assignment. However, everything works as expected when performing the drag&drop in the KANBAN view. Is this intented that way?
2. What is the rule for KANBAN assignment in case of multiple selections in the "Assigned To" field? Currently, the user can move the the Task to ressource in the view and the lsit in the form will add the checkmark to that Person.
Thanx for your advice.
Regards,
Peter

Can you repost this to our Google Group[^] pls, perhaps with a sample tasklist that shows this behaviour (you could use Resources/Tasklists/Introduction.tdl for this purpose)?
peter.haydo wrote: 2. What is the rule for KANBAN assignment in case of multiple selections Currently only the first name is used, and dragging into a new column will replace any multiple assignments with a single assignment.
I am planning to improve on this though in 7.2 (or a later update of 7.1).

Dan has put a huge amount of effort into this release and there are a lot of enhancements and fixes.
Sincere thanks to Dan for his time, patience, and careful consideration of change requests.
Update via menu>Help and see this page for a long list of changes.
Thanks also to everyone who reported issues, offered suggestions, tested changes, and provided feedback to help make this a great release through all of the Alpha, Beta, and Release Candidate revisions. This is what drives ToDoList and everyone is welcome to participate in this process.
Special thanks to those who worked on the new language translations to help keep this fine software current for a global audience.
For those who were not following with the development releases, many changes may be confusing. Take some time to get familiar with the new features. Make use of the new Wiki resources - most dialogs now include a (?) icon that links to a relevant help page. Ask questions here or in the other groups available. See links under menu>Help to "Feedback and Support" (Google Groups), Google+, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. You can also post quick suggestions for Wiki updates to the Wiki Suggestion Box.

lately i was stuck with problem of resizing the dialog and moving/sizing it's child windows according to percentage the parent dialog grow by .
the main concept is the capability to layout dialog in grid-like fashion with capability to grow column or row or both . something like row-span and column-span in HTML table.
i wonder did your code contain a functionality like this and if so in which file? . if not thank you anyway i always enjoyed using to-do-list as task manager and appreciate the hard word you invest in it.

Hi huzifa, thanks for your support.

Thank you for Great tool.
Is it possible to add `Percent Complete` to Attribute to 'track' in Kanban view?

Presumably in blocks: 0-10, 11-20, 21-30, etc?

Thank you for answer and great software.

Probably. But important 0, 100 and any. This makes it easier tracking of status for me.
That is "New," "In-process", "Done".

There is a bug since 7.0
you input a comment and for some reason you leave TDL in input mode in the comment for some time.
When coming back to TDL to finish the input in comment, cursor blink in comment but it is impossible to type in comment anymore.
When mouse click on tasks titles, focus move, when click in comment, focus go back to comment but unable to type.
I am unable to set a sequence of event better than this.
That only solution I found is close TDL and reopen.

Hi Patrice
Can you email me your ini file so I can see what background operations may be causing this?
|
|
|
|

I believe that I have seen the same issue. I have not noticed any specific pattern of activity that leads to the problem.
I have been able to resolve the issue without a restart, but I have not tracked a specific sequence of steps to correct. When I find I cannot edit a comment, I try to toggle between tasks and comments using F11 and Alt + o and I eventually find that I can edit comments again.
I sent a copy of my ini file to Dan.

Edit: I think I figured this out - the email account I sent the original message from is not the same email address I use with the google group. When I sent the email from my GMail account, I think it worked.
Original message below
I tried using the email address in Dan's signature, but it bounced back saying the group abstractspoon-todolist-support did not exist. I removed the items in parenthesis and replaced them with the proper symbols.
I am looking through the google group now to see if I am doing something wrong.

Hi,
currently I try to write an transformation from ToDoList to Word-XML. MS word only recognizes utf-8, but using ToDoList transformation gives always utf-16. The directive
="1.0"="utf-8"
seems to work for Saxon-HE but not for the ToDoList transformation. How can I enforce an utf-8 encoding using the ToDoList transformation?
Regards, Joerg

Hi Joerg
Are you doing the transform inside ToDoList (Tools > Transform ) or outside (on the command line)?
|
|
|
|

Hi Dan,
the users should use the transform direclty within the ToDoList (Tools > Transform). I don't want to confuse them with using command line tools.
So I tested Tools > Transform with versions 7.0.13 and 7.1.RC2 and RC3.

Thx Joerg.
Unfortunately I'm not able to reproduce the issue you have described based solely on your description.
Can you email me the stylesheet and your preferences file pls?

Solved, in version 7.1 the transformation works as I expected it.

Hi Dan,
Would it be possible to include ToDoList.ini in the backup directory ?
Just like TaskLists are copied in backup directory every time a new version is savzed, I would like the same to apply to ToDoList.ini
On Friday, I launched TDL 2 times by mistake, the problem is that second one silently killed my old .ini and I lost my last settings.

Hi Dan,
After updating ToDoList to 7.1.RC2, all task titles colored by category lost their previously-set colors, and trying to reset the colors in preferences does not work either.
The size of the .ini file also seems to have almost doubled.
Thanks,
NT
