ToDoList (AbstractSpoon) Support

Hi Dan,

I found a strange behaviour (maybe already existing on previous versions)

When the task list is stored on a server, the "Paste as reference" and the "Paste task attributes" functions are disabled.

But when the task list is stored on the computer, there is no problem.

I tried different settings, changing source control, ... but I can't figure out where it comes from.

Are you already aware of this ?

Hi Dan,

After some investigations, it seems that the issue is more linked to the task list path.

I have this behaviour with the "Paste as reference" function

Enable
C:\Users\ebfsAd\IsciIocl - cmntl lprts\eBroCoeif\7. uuesrsau\InrinceRaDmCr dlmSsvk veeeeostti\rseqroosl Csouted pTsorlltor\eZaliee\mFile.tdl

Disable
C:\Users\ebfsAd\IsciIocl - cmntl lprts\eBroCoeif\7. uuesrsau\InrinceRaDmCr dlmSsvk veeeeostti\rseqroosl Csouted pTsorlltor\eZaliee\lebysood iL6-uof\mFile.tdl
\\ger.ljioa.abli\esn ntemme fseeMo\pddgenia onbesi rec\mFile.tdl

I didn't find any logic in this (nb of char, nb of hierarchy levels, ...)
It works on local or not, it never works when it's start with \\

Hope it can help

Hi @JeanChristophe

Could you possibly do a quick test with 8.3 to see if the same problem exists there too?

Hi @JeanChristophe

Can you:

1. Download and run the following debug build (executable only)
2. Enable debug logging (Tools > Enable Debug Logging)
3. Open only one networked tasklist
4. Reproduce the problem using the fewest steps possible
5. Close TDL
6. Email 'ToDoList.log' to me at: todolist.forums@abstractspoon.com

Hi Dan,

First answer, the issue is not present on the 8.3 version. It comes with the 9.

I continue with your recommandations, if my organisation allows it.

Kind regards

Dan,

I also take the opportunity of this post (I don't know where else to write it) to give you my feed back on the version 9.

I realy like it and already always use it.

• It gives a more professional look to TDL,

• The "long fields" like file path, dependencies, ... are more readable,

• The ability to sort or categorise the edit fields is, after some practice quicker

• ...

No really, I wouldn't go back

Thank you again for this improvement and all those to come

I'm moving this to 'Questions' because I'm totally unable to reproduce the problem.
