#1174 [Research Assistant] folders

[Andre Vanderlynden]

Using RA, i need 3 levels of folders to store my researchs.
Level 1 - Level 2 - Level 3
Folder A
Folder A1
Folder A11
Folder A12
Folder ...
Folder A2
Folder B
Folder B1
Folder ...
Folder
Folder C
....

In the block "Missing Information", it seems only level
1 folders can be selected
In the block "Create a new task", all folders are
listed without any hierarchy.

To my point of view, it should not be possible to put a
task in a folder that allready contains subfolders ?
All "empty" folders (folders that do not contains
subfolders should be listed to create tasks. Their
names sould be preceeded by a character repeated as
many times as their depth; for example:
Folder A
**FolderB11
*FolderA3
etc

To finish, folders should allways be listed sorted !

Hope the "table" above will appear good; do not know
how to put tables in thoses messages

That is for sure not the good way.
A better way would be to display complete hierarchy names
ex:
Level1 folder name/Level2 Forder Name/Level3 folder name
as if i have a folder called Village in a folder called
department it self in a folder called region,
than if should be anly possible to put tasks in the folder
village called Village/department/region.
Would that be right ?

I agree. I do think that if you have a folder with folders
in it you should beable to make tasks there for the purpose
of having general task such as populating certain people or
folders with more tasks. As for the missing information
drop down, thats a great idea I'll create something to
implement that today.
