It would be pretty complicated to have the same task appearing in multiple places in one outline, I think. Darryl, would Alyona's suggestion of using contexts work for you? 344cl, have you tried using "dependencies" and the "complete tasks in order" option to flag up that common tasks need to be completed before a project can proceed? Would it work to have your project folders as subfolders of a "common project tasks" folder? Something like this:
>Folder: Common project tasks (or project group tasks, or programme tasks) >>common task 1 >>common task 2 >>>Project 1 >>>>project 1 task 1 >>>>project 1 task 2 >>>Project 2 >>>>project 2 task 1 >>>>project 2 task 2 On Thursday, 22 July 2021 at 21:54:29 UTC+1 344cl...@gmail.com wrote: > I also would like this.
