I'm in the process of making a video for intermediate users about flags. It will be a test of my ability to make one (not certain at this stage!) and see whether people think this type of video would be useful. I'll post a link in the next few days. On Wednesday, 28 January 2015 11:41:15 UTC, J

Excellent. Fwiw, my firm advice is: Don't try to get it completely right first time - i.e. Do an informal draft version first! Also don't chicken out of doing an explanatory voice-over too. J On Wednesday, January 28, 2015 at 1:56:11 PM UTC, pottster wrote: > > I'm in the process of making

AutoHotKeys is probably sensible in theory however I find myself dragging my feet. 1. It feel like yet more configuration/setup pain. 2. Rather than re-invent from scratch I would like to learn industry standard hotkeys that are likely to work in the next application I use and would like to

Yes I too like the concept. But any suggestions on how best hotkeys should work? (In order to maintain momentum, I train myself to do absolutely as much as possible without hands leaving the keyboard...) J On Wednesday, January 28, 2015 at 12:02:57 PM UTC, Andrei Bacean wrote: > > some mock-up

Not sure if autoformat will help. Anyway, check it if you are in front of the pc. Another way, create a view and filter tasks by project. Then one by one, change their string to uppercase. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group. To

Er I think I have the same problem. So, suppose I am my All Active Tasks view and I add a new task called say "Test01". And then I hit "Alt/S" that takes me to the start date for Test01 I then hit say "3D" then Enter, this puts the task 3 days into the future and therefore OFF my Active Tasks v

Yes changing font to an uppercase-only does work ! However it turns out to be too clunky in practice and I don't ALWAYS want to have upper case. :( > Another way, create a view and filter tasks by project. Then one by one, change their string to uppercase. Do you mean type them all in again

make a back-up and then do some experiments i think the sync is looking first at the task ID, that's why, i guess, the name doesn't matter anyway, if you happen to get such a problem, try to contact support directly *support* @* mylifeorganized*.*net* (delete spaces in the above email address)
