Category filter changes when section is changed

Anonymous 14 years ago updated by Kevin Erath 13 years ago 1
When I set up a category filter and then change the current section (e.g. from "Today" to "Next" or "Delegated"), the category filter is not kept, but it seems every section remembers its own category filter.

This makes it very difficult to search for tasks where you know in which category they are, but not in which section.

Moreover, this behavior is different from the behavior of the search box which keeps its value between sections. I would expect a consistent behavior since they both appear in the same "filter" section of the ribbon.

I agree that the current implementation is not consistent and may confuse the user. Though, the current implementation is the way i like the most :-) I will think about a consistent implementation. Thank you for your suggestion.

I also find the way filtering works very confusing. The two filters for category and "filter options" depend on the section, while the text search fiter is independent of the section. Overall I like Wieldy very much, but this, together with the missing global search is the greatest usability flaw for me.
