I don't want to be able to complete more than one task

alfil says:
Sometimes, I don't realize I have selected more than one task and when I try to complete one of them, all of them are completed.

Is there any away to restrict the completion of tasks to only one?

this is a problem for me too, but as a work around i have developed a habit to press "n" to deselect any selected tasks before completing any tasks.

Thanks for the tip rdurdyyew,

yes I also usually do that, but sometimes I forget to press "n" and I lose what can be an important task for me.

A switch to enable/disable this functionality would be great.

Hi alfil and rdurdyyew,
Aside from deselecting tasks before selecting another task, you can also click on the task's row instead of the checkbox. (Only the checkbox will keep the other tasks selected.)

You can see this pictured in our section called Bonus tweaks (read this!) section on our Smart Add post (when we introduced this behavior).

Hope this helps!
