UI mockups: introducing task_info and improving task_edit #385

Open

Description

Describe your improvement idea or feature request

Often I'm tapping on a task to see it's details, without necessarily modifying anything. The task edit view is kind of lousy for that, as details are spread apart and span more than one screen. This set of mockups is a suggestion to address that. I would propose that on selecting a task from the task list, goes to task info view, and then, tapping on task details, goes to task edit view. On saving changes, the user should land back in task info (see changes summarized) then back to the list.
I've also illustrated a UI to create, view and edit annotations ( #382 ) although a simple text editor would be desirable.

How would you like to see it implemented?

tedious UI fiddling

    One of the excellent things a task info window would provide, besides a UI for annotations, is a clear, unobstructed view of ALL task attributes. Those things we currently have no interface for handling, like recurrence values, dependencies and UDAs, could all be displayed in the info view.
