Hi First i would like to say that I really appreciate the user tasks feature Really useful esp export feature. BUT I would like to see more information here.. 1> Version field added (e.g say add a task w.r.t some version of a file when we add a task affecting only some versions. So basically it can be multi valued also 2>Right now the file affected can be single file for a task. I dont think this assumption is right. Please make it possible for user to add a> multiple files for a task b> provide a choice to select a module or package or packages 3>Provide an option for directly emailing of exported file. This feature is not that important but will be nice to have 4>If the details is quite big, it is not shown when mouse is hovered over the image in editor where task is applicable(corr to the line) 5>Also the tooltip is not scrollable. 6>Clone Task feature: I would like to have this. For example I might fix it for some version and would like to clone this task for some other version. I will really like to have this feature.
Thank You for the valuable feedback. I'm also glad to hear you like the module. B1: I don't think a version field is necessary. What I do in such a case is nesting tasks scheduled for a particular release under a "version" task like this (see for example http://tasklist.netbeans.org/updates/tasklist-usertasks.html): 5.0 - fix bug 333333 - add D&D support Let me know if that is not enough for you. B2: You could also use nested tasks to associate multiple files with a task. Chooser for a project or package is an interesting idea. But it would not make into 6.0. B3: emailing of the exported tasks looks to me like an overkill. B4: will fix this in 6.0 B5: interesting. Probably something for 6.0+ B6: interesting. I will try to implement it in 6.0
Hi I am ok with what u suggest for version task support. But can u add this... say there are 2 "version" tasks... V1 and V2 Add support for 1> Move Task from V1 to V2 or opposite 2> COpy(or clone) and then move task from V1 to v2 or opposite IF U ADD D& D support for 1> ,it will be even better. -Thanks swaroop belur
Hi I am adding one more to my wishlist...(stretching my imagination) -Enabling Graphical support for user tasks. i.e 1> show all tasks in a tree view where dependendts will be children nodes and main will be immediate parent and so on. 2> Ability to use D& D in graph displayed to move tasks i.e move one tree node to another parent .... 3> Ability to view description on mouse over a node. I know that these are demanding.... I was just wondering...right now an xml file can be produced from export op and as we know XML can show parent child relationships.... I was thinking of nb extending the xml output to a graphical view AS described above... Thanks swaroop belur
D&D support is already in the dev version. If you press the corresponding modifier (Ctrl on Windows) the task will be copied and not moved (default). Presenting a task list as a graph would be probably not too complicated (maybe in 6.0+).
I am going to implement a "context" for a task for 6.0. It will be possible to associate multiple files with one task (your item 2).
