Convert tasks to events and events to tasks.

Currently, it always starts with Event, and then Task. I wish to have it other way around. I wish to select something in my calendar and default I want it to start with Task. Same for command palette, it always gives Event as the first option, I wish changing Task as default operation, should also effect the list in command palette.

At the moment to do repeating tasks you need to drag them to calendar and then assign repeat. It would be great if we could assign recurring when we create the task in the sidebar.

I would like to suggest adding a customisable Eisenhower box feature to Morgen. Currently, it's challenging to discern which tasks (and events?) are priorities just by looking at the calendar. Implementing the Eisenhower box as an alternative window would greatly enhance the usability and efficiency of task management within the app.

At the minute if I create a task in the left panel, and then a subtask, if I then schedule the task, the subtask doesnt show in the calendar view, but also if I then drag over the subtask and schedule this, it isn't visibly linked at all to the parent task. A way to see your parent and subtasks within the calendar view would be great. And would make this app the best out there in my opinion!

I like to see an option where I can drag a task with all of it's subtasks to the calendar. If the idea of subtasks is to break down a bigger task into smaller digestable chunks, then this approach makes it easier to go through the subtasks during a longer, focused session (that will be the main task). An example – Lets say I have the task "E-mail". To that task I add a couple of e-mails that I need to send or respond to. When I add the Email-task, all the emails that I need to go through are also added "inside" the main task in the calendar.

I think would be useful to have the detail of the repeat of a task also in the left panel in the task list. If I mark has done a recurrent task it disappears from the left panel and doesn't appear in the overview overdue, due today, etc.... and it is seen as done in all the tasks set in the calendar. But if this is a task I need to do regularly and I have the need to mark it down on the to-do list, it would be nice if this task is also in the task list and the due today, due soon, etc, overview, how it happens, for example, in Todoist.

I would like to have a checklist in task descriptions. For example, every month I have a task with 10 steps. I don't need 10 tasks as each step is quite small while still being critical. A checklist in the description would work great. Other apps I've used have markdown which works well for this.

Not long ago, Morgen added the possibility to create tasks as small as 5 minutes, which was great. However, it became a challenge to add several smaller tasks to the calendar. The calendar either gets cluttered, or you have to adjust the time display resolution to 5 minutes, making it impossible to view a full day without scrolling up and down the window on a typical monitor. As a solution, I wish it were possible to create timeboxes as an alternative type of event. One could then drag and drop tasks into the timebox. The time box could be expanded to view all the tasks in greater detail. If I need to rearrange the day, instead of moving each task to another time slot, I could just move the whole timebox. The timebox could also be labeled. This feature would solve both the time resolution problem and the clutter problem. It would speed up the process of rearranging tasks and events. It would also support the popular time boxing and task batching technique. For example, I could gather several small email-related tasks from different projects (lists) and add them to a time box. When the Morgen team adds task tags, this will become even more effective. I’ve added a quick sketch of how it could look.
