Outliner with drag/drop reordering - part 2
-
@cvp I think I see the problem. I was using an outline that has checkboxes on some lines , but not all. It also had the 1st line has outline turned off. It appears that the event notes have a checkbox whether or not it is in the outline.
-
@ihf you may have check box on some lines and not on other ones. But I agree I don't use the switch off/on about 1st level
-
@cvp I tried another outline which does not have that option turned off (all lines are part of the outline) but where some lines do not have a checkbox. The event notes show a checkbox on all lines.

Sure event notes already up to date? There is some delay of sync between devices

Thus, you don't see an empty gray checkbox if there is no checked box in a line?
Could you post a screen capture of outline.py and of the Watch -
@cvp Yes, the event notes are up-to-date and I see other changes but every line has a checkbox regardless of whether it is in the outline.
-
@ihf not a gray checkbox, you mean a checked box?
-
@cvp every line has an unchecked box (except those that are checked). In other words, if I turn off a checkbox on one or more lines, they still appear as unchecked boxes in the calendar event notes.

Ok, I think that I understand now. Sorry, I had completely forgotten that we can turn off a checkbox. My app has so much functionalities 🙄
I'll correct this later.
Thus I have to support:- no checkbox
- unchecked check box ◻️
- checked checkbox ✅
- due date set for unchecked 🕦
-
@cvp Yes, your creation has so much functionality that sometimes I forget all that it does (until I think of something I want to do and I realize you have already implemented it!)
-
@ihf How do you want I align a line without checkbox?
At left?
After some spaces?
Other emoji to show that there is no checkbox?
Ex: unchecked could be 🔲 and no checkbox could be ⬜️ -
@cvp Outline has become an important part of my “workflow”. I don’t want to think about what I’ll do if Pythonista were to stop working at some point.
-
@cvp I think that either no checkbox and aligned on the left would be ok as would a solid bullet.
-
@ihf please choose
No check box
Or
• no check box
⬜️ Not checked
✅ checked
🕦 due date unchecked -
@cvp I would use the bullet for the lines with no-check-box.
-
@ihf
you did not tell me if automatic install has been ok
-
@ihf V01.11 and outline.versions with
Version V01.11 - outline text in event notes for Apple Watch will contain - clock emoji for unchecked outline with due date already set - bullet for outline without check box
Edit: if bullet is not at level 1, as it is narrower than an emoji, the outline seems to be not aligned
⬜️1.0 unchecked 🕦 1.1 due date unchecked ✅ 1.1.1 checked • 1.1.2 no checkbox
We should use also an emoji instead of a bullet, but which one?
Could be
⬜️1.0 unchecked 🕦 1.1 due date unchecked ✅ 1.1.1 checked ▪️ 1.1.2 no checkbox
-
@cvp this works great! I guess having the symbol next to the text is better than lined up on the left (which is where I see them now)
-
@ihf you want this?
⬜️1.0 unchecked 🕦 1.1 due date unchecked ✅ 1.1.1 checked •1.1.2 no checkbox
Or this
⬜️1.0 unchecked 🕦 1.1 due date unchecked ✅ 1.1.1 checked ▪️1.1.2 no checkbox
-
@cvp If that is the size of the bullet then I would go with the square
