Date picker #869

Open aubreyz opened 6 years ago

aubreyz commented 6 years ago

This is an enhancement request. The defined dates in date picker are a little limited (1 week, 2 weeks, one month...). Could we either:

a) Have a few more options (two months, one year...) b) Better still what would be great is to have a couple of user defined slots - I often know for example I am returning from holiday on a specific date, and if would be nice to be able to define a few slots so that I can shunt stuff to that date, instead of going into "pick date" every time. Perhaps even including the last 2 dates picked would do it, or define in settings.

I like this suggestion. A tweak that might require less work: when opening the date picker, start it on the previously selected date (instead of today).

Guess that could work -- though there would need to be an easy way to return picker-calender to today else users will be scrabbling around.

smichel17 commented 6 years ago

I was thinking a "Today" button in the lower left of the picker.

I like the idea of adding date slots. I am wondering at what point it will be faster to just edit the tasks as text in these scenarios. A lot of keyboards on Android support text shortcuts for example.
