So how do you order your tasks then?

 

Computed sort - sort of works for me but probably not as its designers
intended.    I normally adjust the sliders in the ToDo view to dynamically
give the ordering that I want.    And if I do this adjustment at the Project
level (or sub-project level) this has the advantage of keeping all the tasks
for that project/sub-project together in the ToDo list so that I can work
on them as a block.

Subject: [MLO] Re: Computed sort does not make sense to me

 

Grant,

 

At the risk of digressing, I'm really curious about users who depend on the
computed sort. You might correctly infer from this that I don't. Although, I
do sometimes use it as a low level sort order on a filtered view.

 

My problem is the algorithm reminds me of one of those elaborate Heath
Robinson (or Rube Goldberg if you're from the US) machines which display
incredible ingenuity but ultimately try to do something far better done by
the being that is human. Computers only have the advantage (still) in speed
and scale; not cleverness. So the only real application I can see would be
if you were using MLO to run something like a ticket system where there were
hundreds of equally deserving  unrelated "tasks" which were too numerous to
review personally and not capable of being easily grouped. What's your setup
and why does computed sort mean so much? As I said, just curious.
