Is this type of repeating task possible?

I want to have a task that anytime I hit "Complete" it will repeat 1 week from that point. I've tried setting a task to "every 1 week" but it always goes 1 week from when it was due, ie.

Task1 repeat set to "every 1 week"
Task1 was due on June 1st, and became overdue.
Task1 was then completed on June 16th, but then was set overdue again on June 8th. Hit complete again and it was overdue on June 15th. Hit again, and it is now due on June 22nd. It should be due June 23rd based on my logic.

Is this possible? It makes more sense for some things like when I clean a room. I like to clean every week but if I am overdue a few days, I'm still going to wait a week from the point that I cleaned.

Try to set repeat to "after 1 week". This repeats the task 1 week after it has been completed.

Thanks. I was looking for the same thing. "repeat after 1 week" works like a charm.
