💡 [FEAT] The clipboard functionality seems to be missing in the new version

[noelzubin]

The ability to cut/copy and paste todos and workspaces seem to be missing. Makes it very hard to move tasks across different lists

Describe the solution you'd like 🤔
clipboard functionality (cut, copy + paste). + keyboard shortcuts for the same.

Describe alternatives you've considered 🧐
havent considered any alternatives.

HI @noelzubin,

Ah yes. Now that you mention it, My plan was to remove it from the core package and introduce it back as a plugin. Totally forgot. My bad. I'll start working on it now.

Thanks. Apart from that, lemme know your thoughts on the newer version :)

Looking at the Api exposed. I dont see an api that lets me add a Todo

is this still being worked on?

i just noticed this myself when trying to use "y" to copy and "p" to paste (assuming that's what you guys where talking about)

Hi @El3ctricFX!

is this still being worked on?

I think I should be able to do this today. Its just that the week has been so fkin hectic that I couldnt find the time to do this stuff

i just noticed this myself when trying to use "y" to copy and "p" to paste (assuming that's what you guys where talking about)

There are 2 kinds of copy/yank, One if to copy the description to the system clipboard which is currently supported,

The other one is to actually copy paste the todos completely which will be available via plugin

Could you share how plugins will work in the application (like copy and paste)? I could add this to the Readme or help section if needed still.

Is this going to be implemented any time soon? Not able to copy or paste from a clipboard (e.g. from a different notes app) is a big deal breaker for using this app effectively...

Appreciate it!

Hopefully should not take too much time

[mburazin]

By default Y is set to copy (Note: y copies the description)
