GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 773647
Creating tasks does not change selected task
Last modified: 2020-11-25 16:20:51 UTC
If I'm editing a task (row 3) and create a new task (row 10), the task on row 3 is still selected. It should either select the task on row 10 or close the editor panel from row 3 otherwise I might be doing changes on task of row 3 but thinking it is the newly created task. I'm not sure if this is a bug or design, let me know what is the expected behavior.
This is the desired behavior, the reasoning behind it is to allow the user add a series of task without having to reselect the new task row. I'm open to discuss how to improve that, but I'm pretty satisfied with this behavior tbh.
Well, if this is desired behavior it is fine to keep it. Maybe we could do something more explicit about the task that is selected? (different color or bold/italic, or the name of the task somewhere in the edit-pane) Just a few suggestions but I'm terrible with UI so don't take my opinion too seriously.
The problem with this is: 1. edit an existing task, change the details 2. create a new task At step 2, I'd want to directly enter details for the new task. But I can't, I need to close the sidebar, then click again on the just created task. The fact that the sidebar is not linked to the task being edited/created really feels like a bug.
