I would not want a project (as opposed to the next task within the project) on my to-do list. My to-do list should be filled with tasks that are ready to go, all the planning and analysis completed, all the prerequisites met, what might be called shovel-ready. When I start to work on the to-do list, my objective is to spend nearly all of my time actually getting things done. If I encounter the next task of a project at the top of my to-do list, my objective is to do an efficient and effective job of completing it as soon as possible. If I cannot do it now, that means that the task's contexts, dependencies, flags etc. need to be adjusted. Once the task is completed my objective will be to mark the task completed and begin work on the next task.

If I were to encounter a project task with uncompleted subtasks at the head of my to do list, I do not know what I should do. The most meaningful thing I can think of would be to work on the next uncompleted subtask. And that's what MLO does for me. It hides the project task as long as it contains incomplete subtasks

Hi All,

Sometimes a project task will have subtasks associated with it.  However, if I add those to the task (which now becomes a parent) it will disappear from the To-Do list.  Is there a way keep it showing in the To-Do list, if I would rather see it than its children? I looked for some setting which would do this, but could find anything.

Thanks for the help.
Pat
