Make a project and add 3 actions, action1, action2, action3. Now make a 4th action called main_action, and make it dependant on all of the the other 3 actions.

In the list it looks like this:

action1 [C] >
        main_action X
action2 [C] >
        main_action X
action3 [C] >
        main_action X

The idea is that you want to complete all three actionsN before you complete main_action.

Now, in the Project view, action1, 2, 3 are in the "Actions in this Project" list.
main_action is in the "Deferred/pending" list

Now check complete for action1. It drips down to the "Completed" list and shows the > with main_action below it. Now check complete for action2. It drips down to the "Completed" list and shows the > with main_action below it. Now check complete for action3. It drips down to the "Completed" list but it doesn't show the > with main_action below it. Also, main_action moves from the "deferred/pending" list to the main list. (I think I understand this)

If you uncomplete the three actions, and complete them in a different order, the last one will always be missing the > and the main_action.

Also, it is possible to complete main_action without completing the 3 that it depends on. And doing so does not automatically complete those 3, they just loose main_action as a dependent. Is this intentional?
