Filter show done tasks dont work
Closed this issue · 4 comments
Description
Hello
The Filter to Show done tasks doesnt seems to be working. When i look in the Examples the Filter Rule to Show the done tasks must be "done = true" because "done = false" shows me all unfinished tasks.

Can you reproduce the bug on the Vikunja demo site?

To give more precision, only the List view seems affected. Table and Kanban work as expected !
By default, the list view has a filter set to show only done tasks (you can change that in the view settings). If you set a filter via the popup on the view, that will be combined with the filter set for the list view. So, if you set a filter done = true it will be combined with done = false from the view, which results in "show me all tasks that are done and not done at the same time" which won't work.
This seems unintuitive for me as well.
Couldn't we extend, instead of combine the default filter?
Alternative (I think less preferable):
We should make it clear that the filter in the popup is combined with the default list view filter and also show that default filter. Currently there is no visual indication what the value of the default filter is, so the user would need to hold that value in his memory and combine it in his head to be able to understand the resulting query.
