RE: [MLO] Re: Time calculation total

2012-04-09 Thread Richard Collings 
Although an advocate of doing something, I think there is justifiable
concern that adding such a capability would add significantly to the
complexity of the product whilst not actually solving the underlying
requirement.

I feel sure that the problem can be solved and in a way that fits with the
MLO philosophy of providing a set of tools which can be used in a variety of
different ways but I can also see that it is not easy problem to solve.

I think a key element should be that the new facilities should not intrude
on the existing capabilities so that those who do not want such a facility
will not be encumbered by it.

If you have any specific ideas - particularly, some small simple steps that
would deliver some useful improvements (perhaps along the lines that have
already been suggested),  I would suggest that now would be good a time to
put them forward.

How are you using One Note to forward plan your work?

[MLO] Re: Time calculation total

2012-04-09 Thread Greg.O 
Eh, it's amazing how many times these requirements (calendar, workload
estimation) have been raised over the years. And so frustrating how
the suggestions get repeatedly ignored or shot down with "bridge-too-
far" or "MLO is an outliner only and should stay so" arguments.

Lack of any workload estimation functionality is the main reason why
I've given up on MLO (found I can tweak OneNote to my requirements
better). I still hope this will be addressed at some point though
(which is why I keep reading the forum).

Regards,
Greg

RE: [MLO] Re: Time calculation total

2012-04-09 Thread Richard Collings 
There has been much debate about this over the last few years.

 

There are those of us who would like MLO to have something ('Gantt chart',
'Calendar' ,  'Thing') which helps us see/calculate/visualise what work we
have got coming up so that we can see whether we are overloaded or not and
whether we are going to meet our deadlnies;   and those who don't (it seems)
have this problem (they don't have deadlines?) who feel that this would be a
'bridge too far' and that MLO should just stick with helping us decide what
task should we should do next.

 

Whilst I agree these are not easy problem to solve (am I overloaded or not;
when can I get this job done by, etc),  the value of being able to see
something that provides some indication of this would be to my mind
extremely useful as we already have most of the information entered,  it is
'just' a question of finding a way of displaying this information

I think MLO would be greatly improved if it had a gantt option. I think it
is very difficult to see things in context otherwise. The thought of having
to take it all into excel is a bit of a faff.

Sounds good to me.   Although this is the sort of thing which would be even
better if one could sum these figures on a day by day basis (as part of the
calendar view!).

[MLO] Best way to roll up Daily tasks to Monthly goals

2012-04-09 Thread MrRoc 
Hi,
I have daily tasks that make up part of my monthly goals and I would
like to know if anyone using MLO has found it better to use the daily
tasks as part of weekly goals that roll into monthly or is there a way
to track the dailies on a monthly basis? And do you have an example of
how either worked for you? Thanks!

[MLO] Re: iPAD version suggestions and problem

2012-04-09 Thread FernandoAgostino 
I'm also missing the "Search" and the "Undo" functions in MLO for
iPad.
And I'm anxiously waiting for the automatic sync feature between my
desktop, notebook, BlackBerry and iPad, all of them with MLO already
installed.

Best regards,
Fernando
