moving todo's across sections via shift+arrow #166

Closed Christian-Klaperek closed 2 years ago

Hi Michael ! Christian here.

The issue I found is shown in the attached screen capture.

The todo "A", is moved using shift+arrow, from top to bottom. It passes thru two sections (Section X and Y). Next it is moved back up to the top. "C" and "D" are also moved from Sections X and Y to the top. Everything works fine.

Next, when trying to move A back down again into Sections X and Y, it won't go. It won't go back into Section X. The other todos (B, C and D) also have the same issue.

I cant tell if this is by design, or an issue that could be solved ...

Cheers Christian

Hey, thanks for the report. I haven't tried your exact repro steps, but I did make it so that tasks can be dragged into empty sections, and attempted to make it so they don't skip over sections. Version 121 includes those changes. Please let me know if that fixes the problem!

Unfortunately, todoist's drag and drop behavior is pretty fiddly / unpredictable. It's sufficient for humans since you can see where the drag and drop will go, but I haven't put in the effort to emulate the human's behavior of "wiggle the task around until the drop target is right".

Hi Michael

Thanks for responding so fast! I gave it a try and yes tasks can now be dragged into empty sections. But I think it still skips over sections. ( I made a screen capture again). I'm using version 123. Christian

Closing as wontfix. I appreciate the detailed report, but I don't think I'll be working on this, drag-n-drop movement is one of the fiddliest parts of the extension.
