Google Gadgets: Tabbed Todo List

Reviews

Love this gadget - looks great and is easy to use. Could it sync with my Google Tasks though?

Nearly as unobstrusive as I would wish: could I get rid of the huge "To Do" header? Also, the big orange numbers freak me out whenever my mouse hovers over the gadget. Can't that be in the options menu, along with a few display options?

Hey, thanks for the app. I would really like it if i could prioritize the tasks more easily. I now about right click, but it's a bit laborios right clicking 10 times to get the new task to the bottom of the list. I'd like to be able to drag tasks around, or perhaps SHIFT+# assigns that task to the # you press. Looking forward to 1.5.2.0 with this new feature :)

It would be better if you could see the whole text of the task when hovering the mouse on it or having a button to show the text. Currently, it is truncated unless you expand the whole gadget

Great concept..but still has a few bugs... The "rename active tab' function doesn't seem to work..it just deletes the tab. Can you fix it? I have windows XP with Google Desktop v5.9. The good news is I can recover the original tabs and tasks by importing from a previously exported 'to do' list on my desk top. Kind of a back up when the application freezes up and I have to re-download it. Why is that happening? Also as mentioned by others the tabs are tricky to switch with the mouse. sometimes you can hover and click highlighted tab, other times there is no response. Lastly, I would love to see this application linked to my Blackberry Storm. Right now I either have to print the list or email an exported copy to my phone.

I like it. However, there do seem to be a few issues. Mouse pointer disappears on the 'tab selection', forcing to scroll with arrow keys. the listing of the tab name in normal viewing can cause most of the name to disappear on the right, for long tab names. However, this is just the sort of thing I need to organize all the things I have to do for my fiction projects. Thanks. Looking forward to seeing the next version.

Looks good and I like the functionality, but so far having trouble running it in Linux.

Would be good if we could choose the font size for listed tasks, aswell as the ToDo logo, its huge!

Yeas! This is probly THE BEST & MOST USEFUL EVER GADGET of ALL THE TIME! YaH! Wish I could have it on my win7(other PC) running with my sidebar. nice side-by side :D And fences.. and bing theme! Man I am justified, this made my day, and it's 3:25 of morning! I must go sleep and stop spamming google :P

Looks good; but if there were a way to sync it with google task lists, that would be AWESOME

I like the idea of a tabbed list. Well actually I like being able to set up to-do lists based on categories. So if it's tabs, drop downs, whatever. I would like to be about to set due dates and be able to organize based on due date as well. Is that possible in a desktop gadget like this? Thanks for a great gadget!

Alexey

Thank you for the gadget! I however thought that tabs will be tabs, not a drop-down choice feature. Real tabs would mean I can switch between categories in one click and as is it is cumbersome. Wish you every success in improving usability. Good luck and thank you again!

I have really been enjoying the simplicity and usefulness of this gadget; however, yesterday the font size changed to minuscule and I can't figure out how to change it back. Help!

I think this is a great app for what it is. I think people are expecting WAY too much from a gadget that is meant to be small (byte size) and very simple and easy to use, which I think this is. I also appreciate Teo's quick response. Thanks Teo!

I am having problems running this gadget on Fedoral......anyone else?

I would like to be able to make this gadget much wider, so that each task is entirely visible. When you click on a task to edit or even read it, the tiny scroll bar makes the whole line v. hard to read. Also, I'd like the tabs on the upper left menu to be listed in alpha order. Different colors for different tabs, and for different priority levels, would be nice. But the main thing is being able to re-size the gadget horizontally. Thanks! NB Why can't I type in my screen name ("GrammarLady") for a comment? My only options seem to be my first name or "Anonymous."

I agree with Daniel. We need the ability to move items from one list to another as their priority changes. For example, from the simple "To Do Soon" list to the "Immediate Action" list. You could put the 02468 choice into the right-click menu, and use the bottom line for something more useful. I'd put "New task" at the top, where intuition tells us it should be, and put the tab modifying buttons at the bottom, or in the contextual menu. Remember that the "Gadget" control buttons will obscure anything you put at the top-right of your gadget.
