More detail on scheduled tasks

Seeing the tasks on the calendar is great, but often, the purpose of looking at the calendar is to actually work on a task and to focus on that task alone. It would be helpful to be able to expand the task so it takes up more real estate on the screen, and not just the small card view. Now, whether this is the entire screen, or filling up just the calendar area, so the side and top bars can still be seen, that not as important as being able to see more of the task itself. This would include integrated tasks.

Also, one potential solution here could be allowing us to grab the edge and expand the size of the task manually as we drag the edge down or to the right, etc., or being able to double-click the header of the task (or click on a double arrow icon) to maximize it.

    I feel like there are a few of these that could be merged at this point.

    Agreed. This sounds similar to other requests looking for more information.

    What would you like to see?

      Danny Hatcher (Customer Support) I would mainly like to see the notes about task/event. Maybe it could even function like a "read more" type of thing to expand the pop up window and display the notes.

      And even better: if the task/event block is big enough, it can allow for the notes to be visible in the calendar view.

      anasa YES. That is exactly what I was thinking and have spoken to some people about in the discord 😊

    I feel like the 1 click view has added to this, but more details to the view would definitely enhance the experience!

    Style; In the same spot and with the same text style (maybe even smaller) as the "subtask counter" shows up when the list is collapsed. eg "1/3" + a space for text.

    Content: A little more info about the task that would make the title feel long/cluttered. For example, if you want to batch something or want to be reminded of a timeline promise…

    Main task: Create quotes in CRM

    Additional: send to Mark, Sally, Tom

    Main task: Send updated link to Fred

    Additional: promised by EOD

    Main task: Call Marco about project XYZ

    Additional: between 3-5pm central

    Main task: Add updated brand kit to ABC presentation

    Additional: download from server folder before 5pm maintenance

    Main task: Double check last quarters numbers

    Additional: important to Mike, prep for next meeting

    What kind of details? What kind of description? Where and how do you imagine them being showed? Does double click on event/task not fulfil that?

    Obsidian: Show name of note in calendar

    When notes are used as project cards, the tasks defined on those notes are often reused. Looking at the calendar and seeing common tasks on multiple days doesn't tell the user what project that task is for.

    The ability to include the name of the note in either the task name or as a secondary line in the calendar block would make it clear what note/project the task belongs to.

    More event details in daily and weekly views

    I'd love to be able to see a preview of the details/description/notes of events and tasks in daily and weekly views. Sometimes I want to be more verbose about what the event or task is, and I'd like to see it when I look throught my events for the week, especially if the block for the event is long enough to show it. Instead of having to clic on each individual event to read the notes.

      Yes! I would love to see this feature!

      Right now I always write my Notes in the "Location"-Field, because thats the only way to see my Notes in Week-View

      I cant belive not everyone wants this… :o

      Also they could make an option in the date to switch Note-visibility on and off so not everyone gets annoyed with it.
