Visual Option to Hide Checked List Entries

Open Toorero opened this issue 10 months ago • 1 comments

Use-Case

As other people already said this feature is extremely useful for organizing to-dos like shopping lists because you don't get distracted by already completed to-dos.

Tasks?

Tasks are fundamentally different in what there intended use is impov: Tasks are reminders for deadlines or independent tasks much like "zero-time" calendar appointments. Additionally, it's much harder to manage a group of to-dos in Tasks and format them a specific way like subgroups representing departments of a supermarket or link additional information comfortably.

The above two are currently stale because, as for my understanding, don't meet the following requirements:

  1. No modification of the notes.
  2. Don't assume semantics of notes.

Suggestion

Add a visual only option to hide list entries with checked checkboxes.

Example

# Q's
- [x] Qux
- [x] Quux

# Misc
- [ ] Foo
- [x] Bar
- [ ] Baz

This markdown note would be rendered with the visual option enabled like:

Q's

Misc

  • [ ] Foo
  • [ ] Baz

As soon as one would check the checkbox of Foo it would result in the following render:

Q's

Misc

  • [ ] Baz

With the visual option disabled the final markdown note would be rendered like:

Q's

  • [x] Qux
  • [x] Quux

Misc

  • [x] Foo
  • [x] Bar
  • [ ] Baz

Dear @Toorero,

Thank you for your suggestion! We will discuss about use cases and possible implementation.
