Ticking Checkboxes #36

Open ldgraaf opened 2 years ago

ldgraaf commented 2 years ago

I'm not sure if this is a bug report, a feature request or an issue with my implementation. However, in editing view, when the columns are rendering I can't check off tasks. The box will fill, but it won't get crossed off and then when I exit the note and comeback the box isn't filled. In reading view I can tick off items without problems.

Here is a snippet of what it looks like in markdown Screen Shot 2022-09-14 at 00 39 49

I'm currently using QuickAdd version 0.5.5

Hi there, this is a known issue with live preview while in edit mode. I am working on a fix but not sure when or if it will be available.

ldgraaf commented 2 years ago

Thanks for getting back to me. No rush I totally get that there are probably a lot of things on your plate I was just flagging it up.

Is this known issue with live preview in edit mode affecting also external link? I noticed that internal links work fine, but not the external ones (if you think it's a different issue, I can open a separate bug)

It is a separate, but related, issue but external links should now be working as of 0.7.4. Checkboxes and tasks are still a work in progress.

Fixed indeed! Thanks :+1:

I also have the issue that when I check the box in Live Preview it shows completed, but when I close the note and come back to it the box is no longer checked. When I click the icon "</>" to edit the block and place an "x" in the check box (- [x]), it shows the item completed and when I exit and come back to the note, the box is still checked. While I can do this as a work around, I hope there is a solution to this issue.

I can agree, the problem @mjh8431 wrote still exists. It would be so helpful if this would be fixed.

Hi all, I have released version 0.9.0 that resolves this issue! The fix is still somewhat experimental but from the testing I have done everything seems to work. Will keep this issue open a bit longer, so feel free to let me know if something doesn't work and I'll try to take a look when I get a chance, thanks.

Hi, I updated the plugin, hoping to resolve this issue. First, everything worked, and the checkboxes were correctly ticked off - visually and textual, creating the x. But today, the textual part doesn't work any more. I tried to reproduce this bug in a smaller file, but there it seems to work.

For context, the file in which the ticking doesn't work is about 300 lines long and contains about 100 checkboxes. I have two three-column environments. The visual part works fine, but the ticking is not creating the "x". I already copied the content of the file into another file and cleared the cache. The current version is 0.9.1.

Any idea, why this problem now occurs again?

mowi12 commented 8 months ago

Another thing I just found out is, that I am able to tick and untick already correctly ticked checkboxes. Only checkboxes which are unticked do not work.
