Strikethrough on Completed Items?

[chinchin]

Hi, any thoughts of including a strike through line on completed items
just like Google Tasks has? I know its small and is probably harder
than it looks but only having the tick box isn't all that clear. Even
if it was just a matter of sorting the list with completed items at
the top or bottom or even if the colour was faded would be nice.

I am guessing that the plan is to work out indentation instead of
collapse-able lists?
Cheers

betweend those two

I agree that some additional visual cue that a task is completed would
be great.

I disagree: the strikethrough on google tasks is ugly and obscures the
text. I think a better solution would be

a) make the tick/checkbox larger (I think this should happen anyway,
it's very petite!)
b) grey out the text on completed tasks

The tickbox is fine as it is. I do agree with greying out the text though.

The checkbox in not fine, it is the smallest checkbox i have ever
seen, with black on black background!

The main purpose of this app is to be able to visually see *completed
tasks*:
- bigger fonts & white text for task name
- smaller text with gray color for description/due dates
- checkboxes can be optional, on tap it should strikeout/gray out/
color, whatever ... not edit

Agreed. Just look at Astrid (which uses checkboxes very similar to
the default Android ones) or Google Tasks Android/iPhone checkboxes
and you can see how much clearer they are (and easier/more satisfying
to press!)

Sorry, I never saw the post updates.

A strike through is a line that goes through the text, if you were in
google tasks and completed one then the line that is through the text
is a strike through.

The most recent update has made the completed tasks a lot more visible
- I do like the bigger box and the blue tick. However would it be
possible to maybe shade the text lighter? i.e. just change the font
colour into the same one that is used for the items in a task?

Good job with the app, its shaping up nicely!
