Hi, Роман 

The people answering you here are beta testers of MLO4, so we can tell you
about ways to use MLO4 but we cannot really tell you why the developers
designed it the particular way that they did.

 

I think your question one is about why you cannot remove a view from the
view list if you don't find it useful. It's true that some "standard" views
cannot be removed. Here's what you can do instead:

1.       Scroll down to the bottom of your view list.

2.       Right click and select "New View"

3.       Enter a name like "other" and hit "enter"

4.       Right click on the "other" view and select "this is a view group"
making "other into a folder

5.       Use drag and drop to move the unnecessary views into the "other"
folder

6.       If the views are listed under the folder name, click the triangle
before the folder name to collapse the view.

 

I'd like to add a little more about tab sync. For those who didn't know,
MLO4 allows the creation of multiple tabs each containing a workspace. The
same tasks are defined to every workspace, but you can select a view that
shows only the tasks you want to work with. When you create a new tab the
setup options include whether to sync selection with first tab and whether
to sync zoom with first tab. You can right-click a tab after it's already
created and select "setup workspace" to change these options later.

 

If your fourth tab is synched with the first tab and you zoom in on a folder
"work" while in the fourth tab, the first tab will also zoom in on the
folder "work". If you previously set up the third tab to also sync with the
first tab, then when the first tab zooms to work, the third tab will as
well. If all of your tabs are synched with the first tab and you zoom any
one of them to work they will all zoom to work. Some of the beta testers
found this very useful: they would have an outline view of all tasks, a
to-do list of active tasks ranked by priority (computed-score) and maybe
other views of tasks with stars or goals. If you zoom one to work they all
zoom to work. Later when you zoom one to home they all go to home. Other
people (like the original poster of this thread) want to have separate tabs
zoomed to different areas of the profile. These users should not use zoom
sync on the tabs that they want to have different zooms, and maybe they
would be more comfortable with zoom sync turned off for all tabs.

 

Sync selection is similar. If I select a task in a tab that's got selection
sync with tab one, the same task will become selected on tab one (if it is
visible in the view tab one is using). Any other tab that has selection sync
with tab one and has the target task visible will also make the target task
their selected task. Again, this is extremely helpful to some users,
annoying to others. If you don't like it, turn it off.

You can choose to sync zoom, or not. So, for example, suppose you have a
tree that has two branches: Home and Work. You could set up a set of tabs
with "sync zoom" and then whenever you zoom the first tab to "Work" all the
views that are synced will also sync. The only problem is that if you
complete a reminder for a "Home" task (for example) you get a new All Tasks
workspace that is not zoomed, because MLO needs to find the task somewhere.
If you close it, the other views will be synced back to tab 1. (This is
being discussed on the beta group, whether there is a way to make this a
little more intuitive).

 

Another option is to set up views for "Work" and "Home". You can even use
the new hierarchical filters so that you see just that branch, and have a
workspace set to a hierarchical view ("Work outline") and different task
views ("Work projects", "Work by due date".  Then you can set up another set
of views, "Home...." and put them in new workspaces.

#2 - You should be able to customize each tab after it is created.  Right
Click -> New Workspace (duplicates current view) -> Modify current view
settings, select a view from the drop down, or select a view from the left
panel.
