TaskNotes Gantt 0.1.0-beta.8

Added

  • Edit task properties inline, right in the grid. (#224, #225, #226, #227, #228, #231, #232, #233, #234, #236)

    • Double-click a cell (or press F2) to edit a task without leaving the timeline. Editors are type-aware: text, numbers, checkboxes, dates, status, priority, and multi-value list fields each get the right control.
    • Dates read and write in your regional locale — so 01/02/2026 is never guessed — and come with a calendar dropdown. Status and priority are pickers fed from the values you've configured in TaskNotes, so only real options are offered.
    • Text and single-value fields use Obsidian's native [[ link suggester: start typing [[ and pick a note exactly as you would in the editor. List fields edit as removable chips, so a multi-value property keeps every [[wikilink]] — including aliased links — intact.
    • Only rows TaskNotes recognizes as tasks are editable, and edits are written through the TaskNotes companion; a standalone (companion-free) timeline stays read-only.
    • A Gantt grid with a task cell open for inline editing
    • The locale-aware date editor with its calendar dropdown open on a grid cell
    • A status picker open on a grid cell, listing the statuses configured in TaskNotes
  • Property cells render as Obsidian markdown. (#222)

    • Wikilinks in a property column are now clickable internal links, tag values show as tag pills, and emphasis and lists render — instead of raw [[...]] and #tag text.
  • Two-way sync between a task's Time Estimate and its bar length. (#221)

    • When a task is missing a start or end date, its TaskNotes Time Estimate now sets the bar's length — a per-task override of the view's Default duration. Real dates always win when both are present.
    • A new per-view "Time Estimate Update" mode lets resizing a bar write the new span back to the estimate. Writing needs the TaskNotes companion and is off by default.
  • The grid/timeline split width is now an editable setting. (#219)

    • A new "Table width (px)" control in a view's Appearance section sets where the grid meets the timeline; leave it empty to fall back to the first column's width. The value now survives tabbing away from the view and back.
  • The view-settings menu is grouped into collapsible sections. (#217)

    • The Gantt view's config menu — around two dozen settings — now opens as five collapsible sections (Fields, Progress, Relationships, Timeline, Appearance), so related controls sit together instead of in one long flat list.
    • The Gantt view-settings menu organized into five collapsible sections

Changed

  • "Context bar opacity (%)" is renamed "Expanded items opacity (%)" and moved directly under Expanded relationships. (#217)
    • The saved value is unchanged, so existing views keep their setting.

Fixed

  • Editing gestures no longer trigger an accidental row reorder or parent collapse. (#234)

    • Dragging to select text inside a cell editor is no longer read as a row reorder, and a small drag while double-clicking a parent row no longer folds it closed. Drag-to-reorder rows is disabled (it conflicted with editing); expand and collapse now happen only through the chevron.
  • Editing a list cell no longer drops its wikilinks. (#236)

    • List fields previously committed their comma-joined display text, which could silently lose an aliased [[link]]'s target note. They now edit as chips seeded from the raw frontmatter and commit the real values. In read mode a long list keeps showing links and adds a count badge when it's truncated.
