@Loke,

Yeah, entering time is definitely not ideal. I’ll see what I can do. The reason that a time selector was not added was because we didn’t want to clutter the UI with too many features, and it seemed to us that most users use Pagico to manage tasks without specific time in the most cases.

But again, that’s not a “no” to your request. I’ll get back to you on this topic later.

Thanks!

Please add more support for picking time and hour on which the task has to be performed. Its sorta do-able in 3.3, but not nearly as good as it could be

@Michael Miles & @Meng

I agree with Michael. Pagico has really nice GUI, but still lacks a bit on GDI (= graphical data interpretation ) Like to see “amounts” graphically. Bigger more time it takes, smaller less time. Plus postpone indicators on task graph showing progress of the task (could be marked in grey) seen in one line. For example: Task of Mr. Smith – Called Mr. Smith 03. 04. 2009, Call him today for update, and then call him to check if he did the task on 23. 05. 2009. All in one “Mr. Smith” line being able to see the note for each partial task day upon hover of the mouse over the scheduled field.

I consider that very important, for tasks are never that 3-steps simple: schedule on certain time-execute-mark complete, but many times it happens that there are many steps in between. I want to see those and analyze (see the changes in the past, current status, next step(s) and final conclusion date) of ONE SINGLE TASK. = single task tracker.
Thanks.

I hope a new feature is to have dependencies. It’s nice to see the ‘graph’ of your tasks and instead of doing the start and end date for each task, would be great to just fly through with how much each task will take, then set up what is dependent on what. That would save a lot of time….and bring that GHANT chart feel to it that us Project folks somewhat enjoy

trying to post here something, but does not show up and upon re-submitting says I already submit that comment. What’s that? Maybe I stick with email then…

@Jozef,

Regarding to the thumbnail size of images, how about replacing the image previews with standard file item mode? That way things may look more consistent and does not take too much space. What do you think about that?

Thanks!

Hi Jozef,

Yeah we actually hve thought about the theme changing feature, and we might include it in this v4 release, depending on our develoment pace.

Yeah, and I like your web page colors a lot. Could you please make it a selectable skin for Pagico environment? Like a new Date Picker. Thanks

Hmm, Meng. Prima. That will help. For those little cosmetic features I suggest also to change appearance of picture name from right to bottom. Then you could even fit 3 pics per row. Although would be nice (as mentioned in email) also resize function, so I could make my blog in nice grid format – making big or small whatever (especially needed for those pictures + shortening width of short note to lets say only one third of the screen if I wish so or prolonging a long filename to see more of the name).
But great progress. Keep up a good work adding more features, variability and portability (ever thought of running Pagico from USB stick?)
