Checkvist story
Helping people easily create, share, and collaborate on task lists and outlines.
Print: the first icon on the toolbar
Checkvist was thought, designed, and created with support for printing. Print.css has been there since version zero. And still we hear questions: but how do you print it? Will it print? And even - I’d use your tool if it could print my checklists out.
Ok. Lessons learned. Nobody wants to explore an application, they want to use it. “Don’t make me think” is not just a nice title of a bestselling book, it’s a law.
So we thought and added a small print icon to the otherwise icon-free toolbar. Click it - and see your checklist stripped of all extra UI elements, just your list of tasks, ready to print.
And if you want to print tasks with notes - there’s a link in the top right corner of the preview screen that shows or hides all notes in your checklist.
Other small enhancements that went into the same update include:
- Home, Page Up, and Page Down keyboard shortcuts (doing just what you think they do but with task selection)
- + and - on numeric keypad to expand or collapse a branch of tasks
- Notifications about notes are not sent automatically anymore (you must press “Notify about changes” button to let your peers know what you’ve done, with one single email).
Enjoy!
