Richard:
No – the “recur X days after this task
completed” doesn’t work when you have a task
that you want to do at particular time each
day. For example I have a @EveningCatchup task
which recurs at 8pm each day under which I put
bits and pieces that I want to do in the evening
when my energy levels are low.
Ah, yes, I *have* been annoyed by that :)
Dwight:
I would right-click the task and select “skip
occurrence” then pick “skip all occurrences up
to today” then perform today’s task, mark it
complete, and the task will reoccur for tomorrow.
Or Ctrl-0, enter
Richard:
At the moment, I do use the ‘Skip occurrence’
option but given that I still can’t see why you
would immediately want to see another occurrence
of the task if you have just marked it done, I
would still favour an approach which, when you
mark the first instance done, cycles through the
repeat pattern until it gets to date/time in the future
Since the way it is now is the way every other
task management system I've seen does it, and
since changing the default would mess up what
people expect it to do, I think the default needs
to stay the same if anything is changed.
Dwight:
The only thing that might have been better for
me would have been if I could mark the “current”
date done when I did it, right away, instead of
waiting till that day came up in the task list
and remembering, hey this is where I started.
But I am –not- asking for any changes to support that.
I don't understand what you want to do that isn't
already there...can you give an example? (Even
though you are not asking for this feature).
