Let my completed todo items stay inline

  Definitely helpful since I like to create to-do's as part of my note capture but still need to keep the task in-line so the notes continue to make sense on review or lookback.

  I agree here. I like to use the daily jot functionality as a log for what I completed during the day. Being able to see completed tasks inline with where I originally created the task would be super helpful

  Yeah, this breaks my workflow. Hopefully this will be an easy fix and can be done soon.

  While we will continue to mull how we might allow this, in the interim, our best recommendation for people who want to keep their to-do items inline is to use bullets instead of tasks. The usual Ctrl-Space hotkey will apply strikethrough to a bullet item, so you can use them much like a simpler version of tasks. You can also use the same hotkeys as tasks for shifting hierarchies of bulleted navigation up and down a list.

  Currently, after a task is completed, it shows up on the note page it was written in under the "Completed" section" AND the task will be removed from that note page.
  
  Having a task not show up on the note page it was written in eliminates the context of the task.
  
  E.g, Let's say on the note named "Make a play" you have the following written:
  [] Task A - Write a play
  [] Task B - Audition for people
  [] Task C - Find an event date
  [] Task D - Prep for play
  
  If task C were completed, the note would now look like:
  [] Task A - Write a play
  [] Task B - Audition for people
  [] Task D - Prep for play
  (task C is in completed at bottom of note)
  
  Let's say, I didn't label the tasks with "Task A/B/C/D", I would have no way of knowing in what order task C was located on the note relative to other tasks.
  
  **Remedy:**
  [] Task A - Write a play
  [] Task B - Audition for people
  [x] Task C - Find an event date
  [] Task D - Prep for play
  (task C is a little bit greyed out)

  "If a task is completed, keep the task displayed on the line of the note it was written in" (suggested by Victor on 2021-01-11), including upvotes (1) and comments (0), was merged into this suggestion.

  For me the biggest problem is that it disappears as soon you check it. It should stay in place until you changer note. For peuple that want to keep it all in note maybe put complete task down with a button

  +1 strong upvote (founder member). Please see my other feedback emailed about @Gadwood’s issue as well. The interaction design around the items disappearing themselves needs improvement. However, my checklist items are part of a plan and I don’t want them to disappear (or they should be toggleable/visibility settings) when on a note. In a global todo list i am fine with them disappearing.

  This is a dealbreaker for using the app for checklists for travel/trips. We have to print it out instead.

  Coming from Roam this is the most frustrating “feature” of Amplenote. Add an option to change this behavior on/off.
