Hello, I am a new user, and I will post more about that soon. Suffice it to say for the moment that I was drawn to Chandler by
1. its desktop/web combination 2. its workflow model, in which everything is a note, and events are just notes with start and end times. (This is the key factor for me.) I am using Chandler on 3 computers: my work laptop, my personal netbook (currently an eeePC 900 running Ubuntu), and my home desktop. Obviously I need to keep them in sync. Yesterday I realised that syncing does not appear to include syncing the information about custom alarms. I set a custom alarm for a note on my work laptop, sync Chandler; open my netbook, sync Chandler; and the result is that the note appears on the netbook with no alarm set. I tested this last night on my home computer and the result was the same. Is this a bug (in which case IMHO it is a serious one since it causes chaos in the workflow), or is it a feature (in which case I have missed something important in trying to figure out how to use Chandler properly)? I am using the tickler alarm to set dates for tasks (or hoping to). I set "Buy daughter birthday present" as Later and then add an alarm one week before her birthday so that it automatically becomes a Now task. This means that I will have it brought to my attention. If I have to be certain that I am using the same computer that I used to set the alarm, though, this feature is useless for me. Is there another (a better) way to achieve this effect in Chandler? Or is this a hub-bug that is currently preventing me from doing what I should be doing? Cheers Owen -- www.owenkelly.net www.marinetta.org.
