[FEATURE REQUEST] Improve of sub-task handling. #11

Open PavelD opened 2 months ago

PavelD commented 2 months ago

Make visible relation between task and sub-task.

Behavior on todoist site:

The normal task has _parentid set to null.
Every (sub)task should have 0+ sub-tasks defined.
When task is defined as sub-task _parentid keeps id of the parent task.
It is not possible to move sub-task to different section

Expected behavior:

Display relation between task and sub-task based on the new option show_item_parent
Make sure move action is not working for sub-tasks.

Hi @PavelD , thanks for the suggestion...

... but I am a bit skeptical that I will work on this, because PowerTodoist is currently completely blind to the fact that there are sub-tasks; and changing a simple linear list to a hierarchical list is a major change in the software, affecting sorting, display, etc.

If someone else wants to implement this I will be happy to review it and merge it, though. I agree it's useful and that it is good to support as many Todoist features as possible.

Currently sub-tasks are visible and behave as normal tasks. I will try to introduce some minimal UI flag for sub-tasks. Let see how fast will be my progress when I didn't do anything in JavaScript for more than 15 years :-)

I tired something already and it looks promising.

Could it be as simple as styling sub-tasks as indented in the list based upon the parent_id or v2_parent_id fields being null?
