Can you provide a bit more context please?

By closing.. do you mean it's marked as completed?

Are you typing the @ in the task new task area, or in the filter, or while editing a task?

If you're typing the @ in the filter area, then only those tasks which have contexts will be displayed. Clear the filter to get them to display again.

The only way to permanently remove a task is to click on the "x" at the end. In every other case the task is simply hidden and can be shown again by removing filters or selecting the "show completed" option.

Hi Martin,

It´s while editing a task.
I click on an existing task to edit it.
If I try to write a word starting with @ (a context) then the line flips
out of the edit mode and is unedited just there.

cheers alex

Hi Alex, I tried to reproduce it, but I was unable to do so.

The edit mode should only exit when the escape key is pressed or when the edit box looses focus.
Is it possible you have a browser plugin (or OS tool) that's responding to the @ key and causing the field to lose focus?

If not, could you please provide the following:
Are you local hosting, or using todo.martinsgill.co.uk?
What browser are you using? Which OS?
Is automatically adding the create date enabled?
Could you provide step-by-step instructions to reproduce please.

Hi Martin,

I use todo.martinsgill.co.uk. Besides, local hosting is what I am also
interested. ;)

I use on ubuntu chromium. It seems the Alt-Gr key causes the lose of focus.
Not Q/@

Is automatically adding the create date enabled?
No.

May it is an Chrome-App...

Thanks for the extra info. I cannot reproduce this on Chrome on Windows.
Are you able to work around this by using Alt instead of Alt-Gr?

Tested in both FF and FF UX-Preview on Windows. Still can't reproduce it.
I'll install an Ubuntu VM when I have time and will try it out there.
Any chance you could debug it yourself to find where the problem is? All that I can think of is the for some reason Alt-Gr on your computer is sending the ESC keycode.
