jtx Board allows you to manage your Journals (like meeting minutes), Notes and Tasks in one Android app. The app is compatible with the iCal standard (RFC5545) and is integrated with DAVx5 to allow the synchronisation of entries through CalDAV.
I was thrilled to use the app because I read that it can deal with multiple parents for tasks, but it didn't really work for me.
Then I realized that I can't attach subtasks, only top-level.
Example: I have task "save money" and under this task I have subtasks as follow:
increase salary
watch expenses
I also have a task "finish semester" that have a subtask as follow:
make a school project called "the economy today"
Now I created a sub-sub-task for the above task and this sub-sub-task is called "watch a ted-talk about how to save money" which I want to also be a sub-task of "watch expenses" but once I created the ted-talk subtask inside the "school project" task and I want to link it to the "watch expenses" parent it's not possible, because "watch expenses" is a sub-task by itself.
I can, however, link it under the top level task "save money"
is this an expected behavior?
Please consider removing the limitation as it's already possible to link a task to multiple parents as long as they're top level (and that can always be changed later so we get the same result anyway, only it's not intuitive at all)
why is this limitation exists at all?
Please let the user decide how he treats relations, the possibility to link to multiple other items is truly amazing!
pleaseeeeee
and thank you for your unique yet simple treasure "jtx board", the best app with the best potential people don't know about!
