Nice fake loading screen and fake percentages...

There isn't a loading screen, it is downloading the files.
And as far as the percentages go, I thought about adding them just for fun, and tried to keep them somewhat close to how far done it was with downloading.


Also, as this topic is kind of death now, I might as well announce this:
I am thinking about making a newer and better version of this, however, I want it to have a clean and good UI, and have as less bugs as possible, so it will take some time.
If you have any suggestions for it, feel free to post it here.

You've just put unneeded sleeps in between each progress statement or loading screen or whatever you want to call it though...

Yes, in total it was 0.7 seconds, just to make it look a little tiny bit nicer.

Just because you think it makes it look nicer doesn't mean it's not fake...

Suggestions:

• Multi-user support. Each task could be assigned to a user, and if that user clicked a Player Detecter their specific tasks could show up. The admin would have access to all tasks
  
• Multi-monitor support (This has already been suggested)
  
• Pastebin sync for tasks so you can't accidentally lose them
  
• Spruce up the interface with some color
  
• Support selectable color schemes
  
• Fully implement Microsoft Project type project planning... lol yeah right!

Looks good so far, though!

I have a problem with the multiple pages. My page 1 is 1-17 while page 2 is 51-67. My monitor is 5 across and 3 high. Can I get some help?

Could very be a bug in my logic, don't worry though, I'm working on a new version as we speak.

Its easy to fix, you made the number multiply the x but it had to be the y

Yeah, that's probably it, however, I won't fix it, as I'm still (slowly) working on that new revamp thingy from scratch.

Hey, i improved the program (the code is huge now), it has multiscreen support, remote control and it looks cool!

Here

[Expenox]

This is pretty neat, never would of thought up this idea! Keep up the great work!

[willwac]

Hey, will you make support for 2+ monitors?

[Alice]

I could easily do it.
Give me less than an hour and I'll add in support for two, along with a few minor bug fixes.

EDIT: Yeah, I'm not even going to begin on how bad looking at that code hurt my eyes.
It's the kind of code you accept works, but it doesn't need to be clean.
I'm not editing that.
I'll make a new one.

Goodluck, logic's a dick.

@Tjakka5 I've done some revisions on a very early version of your program. I didn't realize the original post didn't have an updated installer link. I'll be toying with the latest version I can find to see if the bugs I fixed / features I added are still valuable. gBvtYihF has the changes, if you want to review them and see if they're helpful to apply.

Fixed: Pagination with multiple displays @Arah needed it.
Added: Numeric input validation (a couple different ways, just playing with the concept).
Added: Bump command to push a given task to the top of the list.

Potential future feature on my side of things, depending on what you have going for your latest version (for what might be abandoned back in 2014?) is a list of completed tasks.

Unfortunately, the previous post on this topic was in 2013, and Tjakka5 hasn't been online since June 2014 (based on his profile)

You might be better off just making your own version of this program, and posting it in the programs section

Is it possible to get this program syncable with a pocket computer? I am playing on a server that we have a todo list computer and i wondered if it was possible to make it so we could add/remove todo tasks straight from a pocket computer wirelessly and that get synced to the maincomputer and back out to the other computers

Definetely possible! You would use a server for the easiest implementation. That server stores the data of the list, and can receive commands via RedNet API for example.
commands would be like "add item" "delete item" "mark item as done" "read all data"...
