Hi Opethbass,
I am glad you asked! We are very curious about the demand for such a notification tile – you are the first one to ask about it. If more customers request it, we will definitely consider the development. Right now, we plan to stick to our roadmap.

We’ve already tested STDL8 on Windows 8, so it is fully compatible.

The release date of STDL8 will be either today, tomorrow, or on Friday.

Hello,
just installed Windows 8 and I’m wondering if a Metro – pardon “Modern UI” – notification tile is in the Pipeline.

thanks

P.S. any News on the release date of STDL8?

Yes, eventually, we would like to make it possible to move the panels anywhere.

How about adding an option where the “notes” window for task can be verticially split (right side of Task list) instead of below the task list. (like many other users, I use 23″ monitor, and having ‘notes’ below the task is not that user friendly – but if they were on right side – it would allow user to see more tasks, without having to scroll.

If you run Swift To-Do List with -minimized parameter, it won’t display the splash screen and it will start minimized to Windows taskbar.

By default, on Windows startup, Swift To-Do List is started minimized with no splash screen. We recommend having it loaded on Windows startup, as that has several advantages (you will get reminders, when you want to write down or check something, you don’t need to wait for the program to start, etc).

Looking forward to all the great new features. Something I’d still like to see is an option to turn off the splash screen when the program loads since it covers whatever other program I’m using until Swift To-Do has fully loaded.

Hi Joel,
Thank you very much for your kind words! It’s great to hear from you.

You are 100% right, STDL is becoming much more powerful, and it will be even more.

Also, you are spot on with your suggestion. Creating your own entirely new custom columns is one of the top features planned after the 8.0 release. It’s very high on our list of priorities. So you can definitely expect it sometime after we launch version 8. I just can’t tell you when exactly.

Have a great day, Joel! And once again, thanks for writing.

JD, that’s awesome! I think that we will print your comment and post it on the wall in our office! You are the reason we love our work.

I’m like a kid waiting for Christmas! I don’t think I’ve been this excited since Santa was rumored to be bringing me a Nintendo!

This looks really great Jiri. Can’t wait for it. I was really waiting for subtasks. Will make STDL much more powerful. Love that we’ll be able to rename column fields and love that there will be numbered tasks. Lots of good improvements in there that will make it worth the upgrade.

Just a suggestion. On top of renaming a column field, how about the ability to add names like we have with types, priorities and so forth? There may be those who may not want to rename a column field but may want to add one instead.

Thanks Jiri. Keep up the good work!
