From Topic: Memo width and wrapping
Can I get the memo field to word wrap at a size that is narrower than the full length of all the columns I've selected? I use 35" monitors. I add a number of columns to toodledo that I use only occasionally, and just let them trail off the screen to the right. That way they are available by scrolling to the right as needed. But now I find the memo field won't word wrap to my browser width if I reduce the total size of toodledo below the total column width created by all those columns. I can't leave toodledo open to the full column width, or it will fill most of my 35" monitor. That makes me have to choose between having to constantly scroll left/right to read my notes, or of giving up two or three columns that I occasionally use but want to keep off screen most of the time. I'm hoping there's a work around. This message was edited May 01, 2013. |

From Topic: Can't activate Reminders Import
In the Tasks section on the Settings tab, I only show four items: Fields & Defaults, Hotlist Settings, Date Alarms and Folders. Is the Reminders Syncing gone as a result of Toodledo's recent downgrade in the App Store? I'm running 3.0.1. |

From Topic: Can't activate Reminders Import
The instructions below don't work for me. When I tap the "Settings" page inside the app, a link for "Siri & Reminders" doesnt show up. I've got: Prefs Sync App badge Start page Pass code Language Then Tasks section, Info section. Nothing for Siri/reminders Am I looking in the wrong place? <Can I use Siri to add a task by voice? Yes you can. First, tap "Settings" inside the app and select "Siri & Reminders". Then turn on importing from the Reminder's app.> |

From Topic: Suggestion: Default Values for alarm
I use Toodledo frequently to set an alarm for something I need to remember later in the day. Setting those alarms up seems to take more clicks than necessary. I'd love to see (or be able to set?) a default time in the time field. That would save me some typing for most of the alarms I use. It would also be helpful to have some clickable interface to enter the time you want, not unlike the mobile app. Going back to the keyboard to type in the time after clicking on the field is the real time consumer. |

From Topic: Print a single note
Add my voice to those who wish they could print a single note without the sidebar included. The problem comes if you keep sensitive information in notes. Currently, the title of other notes prints along with your selected note if you use the print feature in Toodledo. I have to copy and paste to print selectively. |

From Topic: Subscription reminder ambiguous
I have purchased a number of accounts for people I work with. Some of those use their accounts regularly, others don't. I just received an email notice that "Your Toodledo Subscription is Expiring". That email doesn't reference a specific account. I clicked on the link and it took me to the renewal page, which indicates my own account won't expire for some time. It would be helpful to me to have you indicate which account was expiring in the reminder email. |

From Topic: Collapse left sidebar?
Before the 2011 redesign, you had added the option of collapsing the left sidebar, giving us significantly more screen space for tasks. I know after the redesign there were a lot of comments from users missing that feature (me being one of those users), and you discussed the likelihood of re-implementing it in the new design.. I'd like to make that request again. I'm now using an AirMac as my main computer, and screen size is a real issue. Any progress on that? |

From Topic: Toodledo Redesign - July 2011 - Part 2
I agree with this request. Posted by roberts.s.p: Please please bring back hiding of the sidebar. It would greatly reduce clutter and add clarity. I like to have a list of tasks in my face and nothing else. The simplicity of having a table of tasks which can be extensively sorted and filtered is what brought me to Toodledo. Once I have my task list filtered and sorted as I need it to be that never gets changed. So I don't need the side bar constantly present.

From Topic: Keep icons when I collapse the menu
I posted this some time ago: "I am frequently collapsing and expanding the menu bar that runs along the left side of the screen to take advantage of the extra screen space or switch to another section of Toodledo. I think it would improve the interface if when I collapsed that portion the icons remained in place, allowing me to switch without having to expand the menu. I don't think it would cost any new screen real estate, since the Toodledo logo currently moves to its side and provides enough space to house the icons. Just another suggestion from a happy user!" I know you've got your hands full. But I'd like to re-request it. It would seem to be a fairly easy change--just adding the existing icons and links to whatever page is displaying when the log is on its side (naiveté on my part)? Here's to hoping someone can take a look into it. |

From Topic: Independent Alarms?
I've been a pro user for several years, and just added accounts for my colleagues. Great product. One area that has always been a difficulty for me and is now compounding as I work with more people is the fact that the alarms are tied to the due date. This isn't so much a problem when I'm creating and working with my own tasks, as I just set the alarm for the time I want based on the due date. But when I'm collaborating, the tie between these items can create confusion. Specifically, there are times that I want to set a reminder for an event that has no due date. Also, my need is often to have an alarm go off based on some event that has nothing to do with the due date for the actual task, which we might be changing. That is, I might set a reminder to work on the sales report a week before I meet with a particular client, even though the sales report due date is several weeks later, and might also change for unrelated reasons (a colleague changes it to a week later because new sales activity has developed and we want to include it on the report). But the reminder is needed for the sake of the client meeting, not the actual due date of the report. As it stands, I have to create a separate alarm, usually in my calendar. Much more complicated, especially when I'm sharing and managing tasks across collaborators. |

From Topic: iPhone Sync to Web site spotty
My iPhone version of the tasks in the native app never seems to be the same as the one at the web site. I primarily use Toodledo on my desktop. My primary view is the Starred list. Right now, the starred list on the iPhone contains multiple tasks not marked as completed that I long ago marked as completed on my desktop, (even after multiple syncs). The reverse is also true: There are items that are not marked as completed but starred on my desktop that aren't showing up in the starred list on the iPhone. I suspect other lists and views have similar problems, although the Starred list is the one I rely on on my iPhone the most. Any suggestions? |

From Topic: Deleting files is tedious
I've just spent some time trying to delete files from Toodledo that I had uploaded some time ago, just to make the selection of a newly uploaded file easier. I didn't notice a way to delete multiple files at once. It was quite tedious to click delete, then confirm, for every file. I ended up giving up. If there were some mechanism for file management, I suspect that many users would reduce the number of files in their account. Right now, its much easier to let them accumulate. |

From Topic: Notebook import failed
I needed to adjust the folders I was using for all my notebook notes. I had quite a few so I used excel to make the changes. 1) I added the new folders I wanted to start using. 2) I exported the entire notebook to a CSV file. 3) I deleted my notebook notes in Toodledo. 4) I adjusted the folders in the appropriate column in the excel file. 5) I saved it as a CSV file. 6) I imported it into Toodledo from the "Import Notes..." link on the Notebook page. Toodledo showed the notes in a window and asked me to confirm. I clicked yes, and they appeared to be imported. But I find nothing in my notebook. I didn't want to retry, lest I end up with duplicate entries (there's no way to delete large numbers--click, confirm, click, confirm). Should I retry, or is there another problem? |

From Topic: New top requests?
I was going to suggest a couple improvments, but searched the forum to see that they've been suggested in the past. I checked your first forum "Top Features Requests" and found this old post: <<We get these feature requests sent to us a lot, so I'm positing them here to let everyone know that we are working on them. In no particular order: 1. Ability to share a task so it appears on both people's lists. 2. Flexible reminders (set a different reminder time on a per task basis) 3. Manual Sorting (manually move tasks into an arbitrary order) 4. Offline (ability to manage tasks when not connected to the internet) 5. Task templates, or ability to duplicate tasks. We'll update this list as we complete things and as we get new requests. >> Many of these items have been added. What are your new frequent requests (so I won't make them again)? |

From Topic: Modify a field that doesn't have a column?
Is the only way to modify the data for a particular field for a task to add a column for that field to one of your views? I've had occassion to use a field rarely (I only rarely use the 'repeat' task field, for example) but didn't want to sacrifice screen space. Am I missing a way to edit all the fields available to a task other than in one of the column oriented views? |

From Topic: Fee based Phone support?
Do you offer any fee based phone support? These forums are excellent (the best I've ever run accross), and your response to them is outstanding. But I would like to talk to someone about issues that would take a lot of time to resolve through written communication. It might be worth the cost to me to speak directly to someone. |

From Topic: Change font size for editing notes?
Chrome. I just tried it in Firefox and IE, and don't get the same effect. I like Chrome in "Application Mode" because of the minimalist design elements. This message was edited Dec 04, 2008. |

From Topic: Change font size for editing notes?
When I click on the "notes" icon for a task the notes expand in an easily readable font. However, when I click inside to edit those notes, the font shrinks substantially. On my screen, they become quite difficult to read in edit mode. I can increase the size of fonts in the browser globally which makes them readable in edit mode, but then the other views of my data aren't as manageable or pleasing. Is there a way for me to change the font size only for the edit mode of the notes? Do you recommend a work around? |
