[Feature] Collection selector in Tasks list

Open keunes opened this issue 10 months ago • 2 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I have quite a long list of tasks, with seperate collections for work, things to do in the house, and open source contributions. Currently to see only my FOSS tasks, I have to enable Grrouping: 4-5 taps (depending on if the right group was open last time). Moreover, when doing that it's no longer possible to sort items within each group (sort setting is disabled).

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd very much like to have a quick selector that's pretty much always visible (may be hidden when scrolling down), allowing me to select 'All' collections or an individual one. The selector should probably be a drop-down.

Sorting remains possible and setting can be done where it currently is.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Tabs for each of the collections but if you have many it's not convenient. A selector in the sidebar menu is also a common pattern (e.g. in AntennaPod you have the podcasts to which you're subscribed), but that doesn't seem a good fit with the current menu structure (it's mainly settings now).

Additional context

Here's an example of how Google approaches it, with a chip; chip-based menu

From: https://m3.material.io/components/menus/guidelines

Although chips would also allow for other selectors (e.g. filter presets could be displayed there), personally I was thinking of a full-width container (no chip).

I have disabled notes and journals, so I have plenty of screen space for this.
