Great app. Thank you!
My RTM tasks sort alphabetically. In the gadget, tasks are in reverse order. Is there a way to change this? If not, can this please be added in a future release? To at least sort alphabetically, if not manually by the user.
Also, I second the request for transparency.
Thanks again.

Sorry; I forgot to mention that I am speaking of tasks with no due date when I requested a way to sort them.

Okay, I have put the sort order on my todo list

Transparency is another stuff, we have thought about it in the forum.

I second this.
Also, it groups tasks from different lists together without any visual indication, and as such finding a particular task may be quite bothersome. Could you give us an option to not sort tasks by lists, and to visually show different lists?

FYI I'm using RememberTheMilk just as a todo list, none of my tasks have any due dates. So I'd appreciate either having my tasks sorted alphabetically, or having them split into lists (instead of days) and sorted alphabetically.

Cheers!

Thanks a lot!

However, now there are 3 issues with the new sorting:
1) Lowercase is sorted below uppercase, e.g. it goes A-Z and then a-z. It shouldn't discriminate case
2) Accented characters are sorted below even lowercase, so for example Á is way after z, when it should be right after A
3) It doesn't respect local sorting rules, e.g. 'ch' is considered a single letter in Czech and is between 'h' and 'i'. The gadget treats it as 2 separate letters even when I'm on a Czech Windows version

Could you possibly use local Windows sorting functions for the gadget, so the sorting acts like you'd expect it to?

Cheers!

Yes, it seems to be possible using localized string comparison routines in javascript.
