Zim

config TODOList

Asked by deltamoins

Hi,
I've read in the help wiki that I can "disable these [TODO tags] (e.g. to only use checkboxes) or want to use different tags you can change them in the config file. The section for this plugin has an option "tags" which takes a comma seperated list of tags to look for.". I've seen the help page about the config file and lookedat this file but I didn't manage to understand how to use only checkboxes without any other tags to make TODO lists.
Could you please tell me how to set it up in the config file ?

Depends on what version of zim you are using. The document may still
refer to zim 0.28 while current 0.44 version does not (yet) support
this feature.

Thanks for your quick answer :-)
As I've seen that there is two different series of Zim, I should have precise which version I use... So I'm using the Ubuntu 9.10 repositery version which is the 0.28. I think I will change to the 0.44 during the update to the ubuntu 10.4 .
So I can config the use of only cheackboxes in zim 0.28 but not in 0.44 that's it ?

In 0.44 using checkboxes for task list items is supported, but using
tags like "TODO" or "FIXME" is not yet implemented.

In 0.28 you can choose to either use checkboxes, "TODO" & "FIXME" tags
or a combination of both. Depending on the settings all checkboxes are
used or only checkboxes in a section that is flagged with a tag.

So in 0.44 just use checkboxes and it will work. If you want a bit
more refined control either stay on 0.28 for a little while or wait
for them to be implemented on 0.44.

OK. I would like to use only checkboxes in fact.
How I have to write it in the config file default.conf until I update to the 0.44 ?
Now I've got this in my default.conf file :

[TODOList Plugin]
tags=TODO,FIXME
use_all_checkboxes=

What do I have to change to use only checkboxes ?

Just set use_all_checkboxes to "1" to enabled this.

Please note there is also a checkbox for this in the TODOList dialog,
so you don't have to edit the config file manually.
