Link from tasks in task list back to note
It's great to have tasks gathered from all notes in a central task list. It's nice to see that selection by tags works there. Nevertheless, what I heavily miss are backlinks from the tasks in the task list to the notes where the tasks are hosted.
I need that backlink e.g. for tasks like "book flight to ..." --- What is the trip this particular flight belongs to? Which other tasks need to be activated in that context? Where to put additional information from the booking procedure?
If the backlink to notes is missing, the context information of the task is not available, which hinders the fluid usage of the system. Adding the backlink manually seems too tedious.

Lucian AdminHey Thomas!
A few suggestions for you, let me know if these don't solve your problem:
1. In Tasks mode (and in Calendar mode too) you can expand the task details of any to-do to see the note it originates from
2. In Tasks mode you can group tasks by their source note, which makes it even easier to navigate to it
3. You can now link to note you are currently in by using "[[", so whenever you're editing a task in Notes mode, you can add a link to the current note, especially if it contains useful context. -

ThomasHi Lucian,
thanks for your hints. Option (1) is exactly what I missed; I am sorry I did not recognize that link at the bottom left in the detailed view.
Best regards
