Hi, Julie (Sorry if you are not Julie, you didn't sign your post
and that's the closest I could find to a name)
You have submitted four posts talking about an issue with a
filtered hierarchy. It's clear that you are trying to accomplish
something that you consider simple and that you are
extraordinarily frustrated about the difficulties you have
encountered. I'm pretty good at this and I can not quite figure
out what went wrong, or what you are trying to do. Your emails
have some discussions of your own issue, some quotes from old
emails I have sent to several other people and my examples, and
some of the problem statements from the other users I was writing
to. Put it all together and it's too confusing for me to figure
out. Maybe a different reader gets it, but if not I will try to
work it through with you if you like.
First, let me try and guess what your actual issue is. My guess
is:
When you have a filtered list of tasks and also have
"include parents" turned on, that a task that passes the main
filter but that does not have any parent is not included.
If this is the issue, let me know and I will help you report it.
If fixing this would not be enough to fix your problem, then
please write a new email that demonstrates the problem. Leave out
all the references to previous conversations and theories about
the cause, just provide these four things:
- A small hierarchy, as simple as you can make it but still
sufficient to show the problem. If task properties that play a
role are not visible (context, deadline, goal, etc) include them
in your message
- A description of a view/filter that illustrates the issue. The
view should be as simple as possible. Please describe ALL
filters and specifications that you are setting in the view
- A sample of the listing you want to get
- A sample of the listing that you actually get
OK?

I am struggling with this bug as well and hope that we can
get this fixed. Parent and child filters should work in a clear,
consistent way, not sometimes randomly decide to exclude tasks
that pass the main filters.
Happy to help report this.

Hi, Kjell.
This goes back quite a while and I may not be recalling it
100% correctly but I will do my best.
I believe that when you have a filtered list of tasks and
also have "include parents" turned on, that a task that
passes the main filter but that does not have any parent is
not included. I seem to recall one person a couple of years
ago who reported this. I believe that there was some
discussion, the final outcome of which was that this was by
design and that the user should create a parent for the task
in question.
Would this response help you? If not, we could work together
to report this as a bug to the developers, and see if the
result is any different this time around - maybe they would
fix it. Let me know if you want to take this forward.

Hi,
I have a predefined structure in MLO (see
screenshot 1), but when in the todo view, I
set "Show Hierarchy" to yes and set a parent
filter (screen shot 2), the folders are no
longer shown but neither is the root task
(screen shot 3). The other structures, like
goals are shown
Can someone help me
Thx
