Hello Brienne, you're welcome!
The starred view is a built-in view that exists as default in a new blank MLO data file. You find it as follows: Open the To-Do-Tab. Click on the title bar on the most left column on the word "View: <name of view>". A dropdown list will open. It shows the available views. There a view called "Starred" should be visible. This is a view which displays the tasks marked with a star. As default all starred tasks show up, even if they are completed. If you don't want the completed starred items show up in this view, you can change the view settings at the most left in the filter settings. Just under the word Filter with the two << there is an option All with a little triangle. Click on it and you will see "Active", "Available", "Next Actions", "Completed", "All". If you select Active then only active tasks will show up in the view. Because a completed task is no longer active in the MLO sense it will be hidden. You can play with the view settings and save the settings in a new custom view by clicking "Save Settings..." in the filter pane at the most left of the To-Do-Tab. I think that MLO's great power on Desktop comes with the To-Do-Tab and the custom views. I defined some views with the "Advanced -> Add Advanced" and the rules in it. This is highly customizable and I defined some views that help me focus on work or personal life if I want to, or to define items that miss a certain setting like context, time required or effort. Hope this info brings someone forward, especially you Brienne! Best wishes, Bedrudin Am Sonntag, 22.
