[MLO] Re: New Features I would like to see in MLO
Ref new features: 1. Just multiple select/Control+k/skip up to current. Beyond that you're into calendar demarcation i.e. ignoring holiday or non- working days - a big change. 2. Notes - I convert a task to a folder and use the notes section. Beyond that you really need a different program - I use CintaNotes for text and OneNote for everything else.

That's all i have. I have been using the desktop client for a long time now - I started on version 2.x about 3 years ago or more - It is an excellent application, if a little feature cluttered.

Thanks. That first answer helps - I would still prefer a new type of item that does it automatically, but I hadnt previously found the skip occurance feature. I should post here more often.

[MLO] MLO in Gmail
Hi there A suggestion. After seeing Remember The Milk has its own GMail integration, what a wonderful idea this would be for MLO as well. This would be fantastic synced to the cloud account and provide MLO with: a) new customers being gmail users who may not have heard of MLO before; and b) new cloud accounts necessary to use the gmail plugin. I'm going to sign up to the cloud special price you gave today, and really hope that we see a useful gmail/chrome plugin to manage our MLO lists along with the calendar events and mail in one screen. Good for your business, good for mine. Cheers Warwick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MyLifeOrganized group.

[MLO] Bug? Color of parent items can't be modified.
I've really loved being able to tweak every little color, font, background, etc. of MLO. There's one weird thing happening that I just can't figure out. When a task has subtasks underneath it, the parent task takes on the color of the background. To be specific, the background color for a parent task seems to use whatever is chosen in the Font tab--Tasks section--Background color. I've tried changing all the other sections, including all the stuff in the Tasks format tab, the Tree format tab, but nothing else changes the color or style of task once it becomes a parent. I think it's a bug. I don't think a parent task needs to be any differently colored/styled than a normal task. But if it does have a different style, I'd like to set it similar to how I am able to set the colors of everything else. For example, I do set the colors of Folders differently, as well as items defined as Projects. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MyLifeOrganized group.

Re: [MLO] Bug? Color of parent items can't be modified.
The word sorta comes to mind. In tools - options Themes and formatting edit themes is the theme editor The second tab has all of the task formats. What is missing is a choice for a default task or a non-active task. Because of this non-active tasks use the default tasks selection on the Font tab. Since parent tasks are never active they use the default tasks rules on the Font tab. BTW, People have asked for an enhancement on this a number of times in the past. So if you want to modify non-active tasks then you have to do it in the automatic formatting section. I have a folder rule and a non-folder rule there. So my non-folder rule overrides the themes active and default tasks rules. For more information on this you can search either my or Ken's posts. We've both talked about it in the past.
