Too bad. I would prefer 'TODO's over checkboxes because that enables me to just set one of them (sub-tasks) to another state (e.g. STARTED/WAITING/ACTION/etc). This helps to make them show up in the appropriate list... until all of them are DONE. In which case I could set the main task to DONE thus resetting the sub-tasks to TODO. I hope you get the idea ^^. In any way, thank you for the idea. > Otherwise, I guess I could make a hook that you could use to fix the > issue for yourself. I guess more than just witching the states would > be need, for example cleaning up logging time stamps and notes??? For me, changing all 'DONE's to 'TODO's for all sub-tasks would be enough.
