Hello,
I'm wondering if there's a way to allow parent plain list checkboxes to be
toggled independently from their children. Right now, if I have the following:
- [ ] Parent
- [ ] Child 1
- [ ] Child 2
hitting C-c C-c on Child 2 causes Child 2's checkbox to switch to the checked
state ([X]), and causes Parent's checkbox to switch to the intermediate state
([-]). At this point, attempting to toggle Parent's checkbox with C-c C-c
results in the message: "Cannot toggle this checkbox: unchecked subitems".
Is there a way to make Parent's checkbox independent of the child? My use case
is that occasionally I have lists where not every child is a mandatory to-do,
and I'd like to be able to mark the parent as complete even if some of the
subtasks aren't complete (without having to "lie" and manually mark subtasks as
complete when they were optional).
Thanks,
Rohit Patnaik
