How many categories do you need? Using ABC with :low: :medium: :high: tags or so you got already 3x3 categories - isn't that already overkill? You seem to want a kind of ordinal relationship between your tasks, not really groups of tasks with similar importance. You could use * [#A] My A Tasks ** Subtask ** Subtask ** Subtask * [#B] My B Tasks ** Subtask ** Subtask ** Subtask * [#C] My C Tasks ** Subtask ** Subtask ** Subtask and let the textual order of the subtasks determine their priority: most important on top, least important at the bottom. Then insert a new task where you think it fits ... > On 2014-01-30 16:51, Thorsten Jolitz wrote: >> Fredrik <fred...@jumans.net> writes: >> >>> When I think about priority I want to see if one item is more >>> prioritized then another.
