Re: Consolidated view: preserve parent task during drag and drop

I am pleased that you want to be able to reproduce the issue. However, I am very concerned that you have twice asked me to send you simple additional information which absolutely will not enable you to reproduce the issue. The issue can only occur in a Tasks database which has a hierarchical structu...

Re: Consolidated view: preserve parent task during drag and drop

I could do what you ask but to what end? Copying the tasks from my demonstration Tasks database into a new database will not include the hierarchical structure of the original Tasks database. None of the tasks will have a LIST OF ORIGIN, nor will any of them have a PATH. You will therefore be unable...

Re: Why has the behavior of Overdue tasks changed?

No, this issue has NOT yet been resolved. I posted on Sep 26, 2023, "The promised change... has not been implemented successfully in the update to version 11.7.1." and you confirmed your agreement. See these posts: ------------------------------------------------- Re: Why has the behavior ...

Re: Why has the behavior of Overdue tasks changed?

I believe that the change in behavior of Overdue tasks for which the completion TIME has passed but the completion DATE has not yet passed occurred with the introduction of EssentialPIM 11.7 on 09/12/2023. I noticed the change in behavior almost immediately because I keep two task group headings exp...

Re: Consolidated view: preserve parent task during drag and drop

I apologize for my inability to make the short video you requested. As an alternative I now offer you a post containing text and screenshots. In preparing this post I realized that the subject heading of the thread is inaccurate. The problem is not that drag and drop can cause a parent task to be de...

Re: Why has the behavior of Overdue tasks changed?

The promised change "Tasks grouped by due date now belong to the correct groups" has not been implemented successfully in the update to version 11.7.1. Specifically, tasks for which the completion TIME has passed still display in the TODAY group instead of the OVERDUE group. Again I ask, p...

Re: Why has the behavior of Overdue tasks changed?

Your 1st excuse was that I did not mention early enough that a time was involved, although everyone can see I mentioned a time repeatedly in paragraph #1 of post #1. Now you imply that I failed to provide a short, precise description of the issue, although my guess is that everyone else found paragr...

Re: Why has the behavior of Overdue tasks changed?

So now you are actually accusing me of failing to mention that there is a time involved? That's preposterous. Take another look at my first post, especially these two paragraphs (with references to the time issue now in bold to make it clear that I mentioned date and time repeatedly): "In tasks...

Re: Why has the behavior of Overdue tasks changed?

I am puzzled that you keep making comments like "It has never worked the way you described" and "No need to check, as we know it shouldn't have worked the way you described." And I am equally puzzled why you have never asked me to explain precisely why I found value in the featur...

Re: Why has the behavior of Overdue tasks changed?

It's a bit irritating to have you proclaim "It has never worked the way you described" without checking first. In the past it has indeed worked the way I described. I just demonstrated it on my other Windows 11 laptop which has not been updated from EssentialPIM Pro 11.5.3. I also know it ...

Why has the behavior of Overdue tasks changed?

In tasks grouped by due date, it used to be that a task with a completion date and time of, say, 11 a.m today would move from the TODAY group to the OVERDUE group at 11 a.m. I found that behavior ideal because the appearance of the task in the OVERDUE group immediately drew my attention to the misse...

Re: Application error

In addition to the problem that EPIMPro freezes and sends multiple error messages when one switches the view to Kanban Board, which I can confirm, there is another issue you might want to address. Could you perhaps let users know in advance that upgrading to 11.2.1 will cause Consolidated view to va...

Re: Bring back the old navigation pane as an option

Thank you for guiding me to look in a different direction for ways to switch views. I now see that not only can I use the keyboard shortcuts which you referenced, there are also two tools on the Main Toolbar (which Help calls the tools panel), specifically Change View and Grouping Options, which dis...

Bring back the old navigation pane as an option

I admire the simplicity of the EssentialPIM Pro 11 navigation panel which has been reduced to a narrow column of icons, one for each module. However, I miss the ease of use offered by the previous design which offered a different condensed menu for each module, especially the menu for the Tasks modu...

Please bear with me while I learn to screen record in Windows 10. Should be interesting.
