Dear all!

I experience a annoying bug: 

If using the text filter in the view pane for e.g. with "monday" and all tasks listed with monday are shown the following happens:

If I remove the word monday in a task it always jumps to first level or parent task.

In Version 5.1.4. the cursor remains in the area and therefore it`s easy to edit other tasks and one has not always scroll back to the area where one was editing tasks.

Is this a bug or a new feature? In any case it`s terrible annoying.

Can somebody help?

Best a huge mlo fan

I have reported a similar bug in my To Do view (which is heavily filtered) (in 5.2)

 

The ToDo view is grouped into Starred and Unstarred

 

When I skip a recurring task in my Unstarred list,  rather than hiding the task and selecting the next task (as MLO did in previous versions),  it jumps to the Starred Group header.  I have sent them a video.

 

Alyona has acknowledged receipt but says they can’t yet reproduce.

 

I have reverted to the previous version for the moment.

 

Richard

Richard, I am so glad that you are also experiencing it.

I also downgraded to the version before for now.

I also tried again in 5.2. for e.g. you have a todo-list with all starred tasks and then you remove the star of one task and it always jumps to the header or top of the list instead of remaining next to the task which was edited. 

It is so annoying because you  have to scroll back and find the neighbour task.

I hope this is fixed as soon as possible otherwise it is really impossible editing tasks.

If I understand your situations correctly I believe I am experiencing the same thing. If I am working on a task at the end of a long list of filtered tasks, when I commit/save the change on that task at the bottom of my list the focus of my list jumps to the top of the list and I have to scroll back down to the bottome. This is very annoying if I am processing my filtered list from the bottom up - really makes it impractical (I suppose I could reverse sort it!). This was not an issue until 5.2.

MLO is an amazing piece of software, thank you MLO team for your excellent work and keen insight to creating such a versatile platform!
