I definitely would be very happy to have a possibility to "manually" sort taks in a to-do view. I'm therefore seconding your request by 100%. > 2. Many tasks i can´t do at the moment.

I myself, in the past, defined way too many due dates for tasks that actually do NOT have a real "due date". Then I had to re-schedule them again and again, since I just put too much on my plate for a specific date. I now try to schedule (i.e. set due dates of) taks less often, and just pick in a daily review (each morning) what I'm trying to do that particular day. On the other hand I'm using quiet extensively the shortcuts for "due date +1 day" etc. > 3.

That's also somehting which is annoying me, since I simply cannot set up system of hotkeys, that would by 100% LOGIC for me. > 5. The Formatting options in Tasknotes are way too limited.

Maybe right, but making things certainly even more complex. I find myself already now "playing" around way too much with color coding, auto formatting, ... :-)) > 9.

Not an issue for me. I'm just tapping on those little "triangles" below those sliders. That's enough for me. > 10.

To be honest, I'm not using Importance/Urgancy too much. Therefore I shouldn't comment on that. > I hope at least some features were new and will be appreciated by > other users and the developers.

I'm sure, Andrey will carefully consider and (hopefully) implement them in furture releases. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
