Don't get an alert for ticklers requiring action

2009-06-15 Thread bkh

Howdy,

I have read through the messages in the thread
http://groups.google.com/group/GTD-TiddlyWiki/browse_thread/thread/6e27809d03ec27ee/b8e57f207179ea15?lnk=gst&q=tickler+not+working#b8e57f207179ea15
but have not been able to solve this problem in my Mgtd.  I understand
the concept of ticklers and the alert.  It was one of the best things
about my Mgtd before it stopped working.

I don't remember when my alert message stopped.  I have made hardly
any tweaks, and they were a while ago.  The alert does not appear in
FF2 or 3 or Safari.  I have downloaded a new version and that one
alerts just fine.  I upgraded my Mgtd to r9843 and it still doesn't
work (love the note icons, BTW)

I tried Henk's suggestion of creating a 'ticklers requiring action'
tiddly but I already had one that was functioning just fine, except
for giving the flashing alert. I see plenty of active ticklers in the
dashboard and in the 'ticklers requiring action' tiddly.

I even went into MgtdList to make sure the blinker variable was set
right (it was), although I'm not even getting a static alert.

Any help would be much appreciated.

PS: Sorry for replying directly to author in the previous post.  I
didn't realize it was a closed thread and I needed to start it again.

Re: New User - some d-cubed things I don't understand

2009-06-15 Thread tomo

Hi, and thanks for using d-cubed!

Regarding your "unfiled" issue, that value comes from the
"Configuration" setting for specifying the default context for new
actions. You can change it to whatever you want, but the reason the
context picker does not do the replacement is because "unfiled" is not
a real context. I personally use "@default" as my default context, and
also make sure that there *is* a context called "@default" so that, if
I ever see stuff in that context during review, I know I have not set
it up with a more useful context.

As to seeing projects with no open actions, you will generally see it
in the "Summary Review" and "Project Review" listed at bottom as
"Projects with no open actions". However, brand new projects that have
no actions in them at all will not show up there. You need to have
actions in the project for it to be considered a live project, and if
all the actions are currently closed, then they will appear in the
lower list.

Hope this helps...

d-cubed and highlighting todays tasks ("starred items")

2009-06-15 Thread colinchristensen

I am trying D3 and likely will continue using it in place of MGTD. But
there is one thing that I miss - starred items.

I can think of a few work arounds but they are all a bit kludgy and do
not compare to MGTD's simple single-click toggle and the ability to
see them on any report at a glance.

I don't understand the coding behind wiki's but I play around under
the hood a bit at a very basic level.

Is there a way that a person of my so-so ability can introduce
something like starred items into D-cubed?
