Hi, Chris. First, let me acknowledge that I am not a user of "Next Actions" - I don't see the use of it, though I recognize that many people rely on it.
On my system, "Next Actions by Project" shows 16 projects and the next action for each, and it also shows a group called Project: (none) and shows for each of my 14 root level folders, the first active task in each folder. To answer your question, yes this makes sense. If you believe in Next Actions, then the next thing you should do is somewhere on this list. Since the next thing you should do might not be a part of a project, then a good next actions listing should not be limited to projects. The only issue is that the report name is a little misleading. -Dwight From: mylifeorganized@googlegroups.com [mailto:mylifeorganized@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Chris Sent: Friday, January 11, 2013 5:00 PM To: mylifeorganized@googlegroups.com Subject: [MLO] Next Actions by Project is showing tasks that aren't projects So I just created a new MLO data file, input 20 tasks in the RTE box and didn't assign any contexts or anything. I created 2 folders, moved one task into each folder and then clicked on the To-Do tab and changed the view to Next Actions by Project. Strangely, I see 3 tasks listed, even though I've created no projects. The first task listed in this view just happens to be whatever the first task in my inbox is (if I drag tasks around in my inbox so that a different task appears first, then this will be the first task that shows up in the Next Actions by Project view. The other 2 tasks just happen to be the only two tasks that I've placed into folders. [See my screenshot] Can someone please explain this behavior? Is this expected? I have to confess, it doesn't make sense to me. <https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-EzlKlQ9axsA/UPCLMAtACRI/AAAAAAAAAAk/AClo -CZjsHY/s1600/mlo+projects.jpg> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
