hi again. It is inconvenient because of the need to make several steps to hide the checkmark? If so, you can use hotkeys to automate the process. So, to hide the task: *Alt+E * To convert it to a folder: *Shift+Alt+F*
If you are going to use this trick for a long time, you can trigger these hotkeys with only one key press. To do that you need first to install the autohotkey app (autohotkey.com). And second, you need a small script which will automate the hotkey pressing. If you need any help with the script, please post back.
