[MLO] Re: MLO handling of linking to TheBrain

[zel...@gmail.com]

I have worked it out in Win 10.


*Make a link to MLO from TheBrain*

This makes a link from the content area of a thought in TheBrain to a task 
in the main pane in MLO.

In MLO:

   1. Right click on the task
   2. “Copy as > Copy as URL” in the context menu

In TheBrain:

   1. Click the “Attach” button
   2. Click “Link to URL”
   3. Paste into the box that appears
   4. The link appears under the thought title in the note. It can be 
   renamed through its context menu.


*Make a link to TheBrain from MLO*

To make a link to a thought in TheBrain from a markdown note in Task 
Preview mode in MLO:

In TheBrain, right click on the thought and choose "Copy Local Thought URL" 
from the context menu.

In MLO, in the Task Properties pane (in Task Edit mode), type in the notes 
panel.

Use square brackets and parentheses to create the link:

[label](Local Thought URL)

label: Text that shows in Task Preview mode in the Task Properties pane.

Local Thought URL: Link address to the thought in TheBrain.

The steps to achieve this are left to the student.

[MLO] Re: Is there a way to filter by time required on the mobile app?

[zel...@gmail.com]

You should be able to build a view in the desktop app using the Advanced 
setup filtering and Sort in Group and sort.

[MLO] Re: Bug: Window 10 latest release (actually a long-standing bug)

[zel...@gmail.com]

I am having this bug. It cannot be bypassed by using the calendar function 
in the timing and reminder section. Using the calendar in the start date or 
due date column in the main view gives the correct input. Using the 
recurrence window in the timing and reminder section to set the dates, then 
removing the recurrence also works.
Not optimal.

This is what I am thinking of sending. Too strong?

It would be great to see a Setup Guide for My Life Organized (MLO) on the 
Suggested Products page.  https://store.gettingthingsdone.com/

MLO is a Swiss army knife (actually it's built in Ukraine) on Windows, 
Android and iOS. It works out of the box, but you can make it your own. MLO 
has been around longer than the others you mention, and it shows.

It can give you a task list weighted for any or all of the: 

· start & due date & time

· importance & urgency

· context location & time

David Allen mentions often the need for flexibility in a system. What I 
have mentioned above is just the start: goals, projects, recurrences, lead 
times, dependencies, effort needed, tag by text, flag, star - this still 
does not tell all that is in MLO.

It can show customized views within the app. On Windows, there is a new 
dashboard function that can show those views side-by-side. 

I have rejected all of the apps in your present guides for their:

· inability to parse my information

· requirement of an internet connection to function between desktop 
and mobile

· SUBSCRIPTION ? !

With MLO, you have a choice.

GTD on MLO.

Thanks for the reply. That sounds like a job for a macro. I will keep it in

[MLO] MLO handling of linking to TheBrain

[zel...@gmail.com]

I am trying to marry MLO with TheBrain. Both generate links to tasks and 
thoughts respectively. 

I am able to generate a link to a task 
(mlo://G:\MLO\mytasks.ml?{009CC443-9681-4A1E-973A-0538C29E6C2C}) in MLO and 
use it in TheBrain.

However, MLO Task Notes does not execute a link generated by TheBrain 
(brain://api.thebrain.com/mNjJ/LinkMLOToAThoughtInTheBrain). 

Any ideas?

Is there a way to apply the importance and urgency scores so that the 
importance or urgency of a goal and/or project is reflected in the to do 
list?

Another workaround would be to insert a link in the Task Note. See 5.1.7.1

[MLO] Re: Unbelievable if not available! - Quick Filters: by Importance, Due Today

[zel...@gmail.com]

What about:
creating a new workspace tab
setting up the filters you want
right click on workspace tab
"Set as default for this tab"
right click on workspace tab
"Lock default in this tab "
right click on workspace tab
"Pin this tab"
Right clicking on the workspace tab will let you assign an icon, hotkey, 
and rename (by choosing "Set up workspace...")

Since pinning a workspace move it to the left, I have a set of buttons 
showing me customized views right above the view window.

This is a powerful blank slate program that requires getting your hands 
dirty. The filters require some fiddling. Turn the advanced filters on, and 
you can see *exactly* what you want.

[zel...@gmail.com]

A kludge, maybe?
Use a silent *wav *file as the default reminder sound in your *C:\Program

Use a batch file to toggle sound on and off by renaming *mloReminder.wav *and
