Description egasimus 2009-09-06 19:12:20 UTC
The current tasks pane is quite limiting, only letting me keep an eye on how many tasks I've set for myself... What
about a tree view in which a task can consist of multiple sub-tasks? And different color-coded priority levels, too.
Also, the tasks pane doesn't remember the column heights I set for it (unlike my bloody project which always remembers
which tab I've left selected the last time I rebuilt -- which pisses me off greatly; but whatever), and it just doesn't
make any sense having as much space for the line number as for description. The "Location" column is pretty much useless
for small projects - is there already an option to hide it which I haven't yet discovered?
