Re: [MLO] Frustrated with viewing tasks in Android app

2012-02-01 Thread birdv...@gmail.com
Hi Amberly:

One of the great features of the desktop version that I use all the time is
the Zoom-in. Just right click an item to toggle on. I  also use it in the
Android version. It's accessible by long-press on any item.

If I have items scattered throughout MLO, I then use the @context. For me,
I assign the @today context for anything I that I want to get done for any
given day.

Just a quick word to everybody. I've used EVERYTHING from EccoPro in the
1990s to Bonsai, Swift to-do, Outlook, and many others. MLO is by far the
best, most well thought-out personal info manager I've ever used. There are
so many powerful nuances that I have stumbled across that are not readily
obvious. Nothing else comes close.

[MLO] Feature request: option for new items to appear at top of a manually sorted list

2012-02-01 Thread Richard Collings
I am currently using a manually sorted list to manage my tasks which is
working quite well where I have tasks arriving all the time and I just want
to drag them to somewhere approximately in the order that I want to do them.

 

However, as with all my ToDo lists,  they get longer - which means that the
new tasks appearing at the bottom of the list is becoming problematic
because I then have to drag them to the top of the list.   Can an option be
provided for new tasks to appear at the top of a manually sorted list - this
means that I can immediately review them and drag them off to an appropriate
point in my list.

 

Was never quite sure why new tasks appeared at the bottom of the list in the
first place - because in my case, new tasks tend to be more important than
old tasks (the most important older tasks having already been done).

 

Richard

Re: [MLO] Frustrated with viewing tasks in Android app

2012-02-01 Thread Lisa Stroyan
Something strange is going on. My Starred view and my active starred  view  
both show the same tasks on both the PC and android.

 If you sort your active actions view on android by starred, do you see the 
starred tasks at the top?

 As a comment to your dilemma of how to isolate your most important tasks, I 
use goals to limit the things I need to process for today down to my weekly 
tasks. Then I sort my android views first by starred, second by goals, and 
lastly by either computed score or caption. ( Because I have an indicator of 
whether a task recurs in the beginning of my captions. Finally I put a project 
attribute on the top-level folders that I can see my tasks by toplevel folder 
as well, using the projects views.

Re: [MLO] How can I remove the strikethrough option in all formatting?

2012-02-01 Thread Eberhard
Go to Options -> Themes and Formatting -> Edit Theme

Then choose "Task Format" and then "Completed Tasks format"

There you can de-activate "strikethrough"

[MLO] Frustrated with viewing tasks in Android app

2012-02-01 Thread Amberly
I'm using the PC version (just the trial until I make sure I can get
it to work for me) and the Android app.

I like being able to see all my tasks in the outline and various views
on my PC, but I want to be able to narrow the tasks down the the 10 or
so things I know I really need to focus on and get done and have them
at the top of my list.

I tried using the star feature--thought I could just have a mini-
planning session and star the ones I want to focus on and then see
them.

In the PC version, I grouped the to-do list by starred and then top
level folder and this is great.

However, on my Android app, I can't figure out how to get to that
view.  And when I try the "Starred" view, even though the main screen
shows that there are 15 items starred, it only displays 4.  It
displays the same items for "starred" and "active starred".

Am I missing something? I've tried resyncing.

[MLO] How can I remove the strikethrough option in all formatting?

How can I remove the strikethrough option in all formatting?

For various reasons, such that we print these reports and provide them
to our board, the strikethrough can make the reports hard to read.  Is
there a way to disable this globally?  I was able to remove it on one
of the fields using autoformat on the screen GUI, however when I go to
print the strikthrough displays again.

Any help or suggestions are appreciated.
