prm	Posted: Mar 27, 2009 Score: 6 Reference prm Posted: Mar 27, 2009 Score: 6 Reference Is it possible to user defined color cods to display the tasks under different PRIORITIES. Current color differentiation of priorities is not that good. Example - RED for TOP Priority, GREEN - for HIGH priority YELLOW - Medium and BLUE for LOW etc
danb	Posted: Mar 28, 2009 Score: 2 Reference danb Posted: Mar 28, 2009 Score: 2 Reference I was just coming in here to make a similar suggestion... I'd like the ability to create rules that color code tasks by keyword, priority, due date, project, context, etc..

Example - RED for TOP Priority, GREEN - for HIGH priority YELLOW - Medium and BLUE for LOW etc While this has note been touched since March 2009, and I'm a new Toodledo user (about 2 weeks, but I've become a devote fan!!!), this would be a great add/fix. Concur that the current colors for Top and High are tough to differentiate. How hard to be able to choose your own colors for each of the priorities? Thanks for a great product and hope to see it continue to improve.

cbernard	Posted: Jul 23, 2009 Score: 3 Reference cbernard Posted: Jul 23, 2009 Score: 3 Reference I'm not new to Toodledo, but I'm a new PAID Toodledo user. It's good to see others looking for the same color coding function as I am.... All it would take is a box in the "Add task" interface that allows you to choose the color of the text or of the background.... Or a box that allows you to apply a color to contexts and/or to folders. Some visual way to distinguish one task from another is essential and sadly missing... Is adding it a possibility?
cshaw340	Posted: Jul 31, 2009 Score: 1 Reference cshaw340 Posted: Jul 31, 2009 Score: 1 Reference Speaking of colors, it would be great if the "Read Note" button on the bottom of the task view would change to a different color when there is a note present. Most of my tasks don't have a note so on the occasions when there is one it would be great if that button would change color.
Anders	Posted: Jul 31, 2009 Score: 0 Reference Anders Posted: Jul 31, 2009 Score: 0 Reference The Note icon does change from a white icon with a green + symbol to a blue icon with a red line. Maybe the change is not dramatic enough for you? Edit: Or are you referring to the iPhone app? This message was edited Jul 31, 2009.

I agree completely. It would be great if I could visually divide blocks of tasks. At the moment they all run together in one big list. I have to mentally separate the list each time and there isn't value in that process. I know I can put them in folders or assign them context, but that doesn't allow me to see my overall to do list at a glance. It would also be great if I could drag tasks and put them in order according to what I need to do next. At the moment I have to control task order by due date or priority and that is a bit tedious at times. PS. I use the iPhone app mainly. This message was edited Jan 24, 2010.
maritabix	Posted: Feb 03, 2010 Score: 0 Reference maritabix Posted: Feb 03, 2010 Score: 0 Reference I also would love to see some kind of color coding or visual grouping for items of the same context. I have been using this site to keep track of my work, home, & grad school tasks and colors would help immensely. I use the website and the iPhone app.
tisha.turk	Posted: Jun 18, 2010 Score: 0 Reference tisha.turk Posted: Jun 18, 2010 Score: 0 Reference Just adding my support to the idea of having color coding for contexts or folders. This was one of the most useful features of my previous to-do software, and while ToodleDo is in general an improvement, it would be even better with color coding!
graziano	Posted: Jun 19, 2010 Score: 0 Reference graziano Posted: Jun 19, 2010 Score: 0 Reference I use Toodledo under Prism (not in a browser window) and with some hacking at javascript code I have the Top priority tasks in red background, High in yellow b/g , Medium in blue b/g, and other task left standard white b/g. Here is a sample: link to snapshot
PeterW	Posted: Jun 20, 2010 Score: 0 Reference PeterW Posted: Jun 20, 2010 Score: 0 Reference Looks good. There are also some user-developed Stylish scripts that color-code tasks based on priority and due/overdue status (Stylish is a free add-on for the FireFox browser).
