Question/Bug: All task statuses render the same checkbox style

Current Behavior

When creating or editing a task in the editor/reading view, all task statuses are rendered with the same icon, making it difficult to visually distinguish between different statuses

Expected Behavior

Each task status should display a distinct icon (or distinct visual styling) to allow quick visual identification without reading the status text.

Question

Is this behavior configurable through settings, or is it a bug that needs to be fixed?

Environment

  • Version: taskgenius-plugin version:9.13.1; obsidian version:1.10.6
  • OS: windows11

    It seems that you do not have set "Task mark display style" to "Task Genius icons".
    I also had the problem finding this options. It is hidden and only visible if you have enabled "checkbox status switcher". (Which you can disable again after changing the "Task mark display style" if you do not want the "checkbox status switcher" enabled)

    Although be aware if you have other CSS styles for checkboxes through another plugin/theme/snippet they might collide.
