Select Outline, right click on selection, then go to AdvancedCopy text as 
tasks... and choose required settings for pasting into Word.

 Thanks for the suggestion.  I use MLO extensively for most of my projects. 
  What I'm looking for is a simple way to share a basic outline with my 
 group.  Something like select all, copy and paste into Word. I've used 
 export to both excel and tab format. Busy looking for a shortcut.

[MLO] cross link selected task

2012-07-03 Thread robisme
Hi,
Would be nice a way to right-clic after selecting multiple task, and a menu 
cross-link selected tasks would insert in each task's note a link toward 
the others.
Do you think this would be usefull ?

[MLO] any MLO users in Czech republic?;-)

2012-07-03 Thread PetrH
Hello guys,

just a thought - from MLO forum I guess some people here are (as I am) from 
the Czech republic.
Thought it might be a nice idea to get together sometimes and discuss about 
MLO and time management in person (over a beer as is usual in CZ;-)
It also seems to me, that people who use MLO have in a certain way same 
view on life, so we might find more common topics..
I am from Prague and will gladly organize some kind of meeting, if you guys 
just let me know you are interested.
The best way is to send me a message to petr.hartmann zavin ac hp tec ka 
com or you can post here.

cheers

Petr

[MLO] Re: Copy Outline into Microsoft Word

2012-07-03 Thread Dwight Arthur
I think that the easiest thing is to use the PRINT function in the FILE 
menu. The basic print function produces, I believe, an HTML file which you 
can just open with Word. Or you can get fancy and use the PrintMod function 
which produces a fancy pocket-sized booklet and stores it, if I recall 
correctly, as a Word file.

[MLO] do you DO text-related task inside of MLO ?

2012-07-03 Thread SRhyse
I've played around quite a bit in both directions.

(Keep in mind, for my current workflow, I'm mostly iOS based now. I still love 
the Windows app, but I'm on the go more and more, and have taken to doing 
everything I can on my iPhone and iPad)

Some of my tasks involve alot of large scale planning and thinking. iThoughts 
is another app I love, and I use it to death, but I've been taking to making 
plans that I'd end up tracking and implementing into MLO eventually anyway by 
entering them in directly into MLO. On the iPad, the view isn't so bad for 
outlining and brainstorming. You can easily past in a mindmap from an app like 
iThoughts or Mindmanager or Freemind into the Rapid Task Entry of the Windows 
app, however, and if you have parsing on and took the time to write in the info 
within the mindmap, you can have the same effect just as easily, with a bit 
more agility in the editing of the hierarchy within the mindmaps.

For email replies that are just text, and most importantly I won't be tracking 
or anything, I'll usually write them into the notes field of a task in MLO. I 
used to reply to everything on the spot, but with the volume I get, I have to 
be pickier and prioritize which ones I can get to, which is where MLO comes in 
handy. If it takes a word or two in reply, it wouldn't hit MLO though.

Recently, I've been handling the editing together of some plain text 
newsletters, and have been doing those in the notes field as well, since it 
forces it to remain in plain text, and keeps it accessible with the prompt to 
do it.

I tend to keep logs there too, like time logs of billable time spent with 
clients or on projects, tracking things like weight, and other things that 
basically just need a module date stamped entry. If I want to process them 
elsewhere I do, but lists tend to be fine for me on many things, and I like how 
quick it is to enter them into a hierarchy of any complexity with ease using 
the bookmark features on the iOS apps. I tend to keep really complex project 
logs in the notes field's as well, some nearing a short novel at times over 
many months.

I also record ideas in there at times that I flesh out upon review, like 
articles ideas, plans for remodeling our living space, etc. So though the 
initial entry is just a task, an entire plan and log can take shape over time 
with other lists and thinking along the way.

Minor code snippets do just fine in MLO notes, as do posts on a website to 
make, much like this one.

If the iOS apps had search, I'd certainly be keeping more of that kind of thing 
in MLO, but there is alot of benefit to keeping hard edges with this kind of 
stuff. My other apps of choice for content planning and creation type work are 
iThoughts, Notebooks, and Evernote. I'm a huge fan of Notebooks at the moment 
on the iOS end, being a refugee of Evernote until it scales better and has 
functional iOS Apps for larger databases like mine (60k+ notes). Can't 
recommend Notebooks enough. If you only need lightweight task management as 
well, it may suite your needs well enough. There are still real benefits on the 
iOS end to having that stuff separate though, the ability to switch between 
apps for different things handier than losing your place in your current one at 
times.
