Hierarchy bar buggy when reordering nested subtasks on list
Noé Gensse
Reordering works fine with tasks and first-level subtasks. With drag-and-drop, you can move the task depending on where the hierarchy bar appears:
- Bar all the way to the left → only changes the position in the list.
- Bar slightly to the right → changes the position but also nests it under the task above.
The problem starts once you’re dealing with sub-subtasks (second level and deeper):
- The hierarchy bar does not react correctly to mouse movements.
- It often stays shifted, which makes the task nest under the wrong parent instead of just moving up or down.
- The bar itself is inconsistent, so the behavior feels unpredictable.
- In general, the hierarchy bar is buggy and does not respond properly to mouse movements.
- The only workaround is to use Cmd+Tab each time to remove them from the wrong parent and put them back at the correct level.
