Greetings, Loving the latest with 4.1, but one of the recent changes is making way more work to clean up and see what remains on the 'to-do' plate.
>From the Change Log: "Change: Archiving old completed tasks will not archive the subtasks from open Projects and open Recurrence tasks anymore. You need to complete a project or recurrent task for archiving their subtasks." I could certainly see where this could be an advantage in some cases, and it's a perfectly valid option-- but I would think that it should be just that-- an Option... that one could enable or disable in the AutoArchive feature settings dialogue. The way I have it set up, everything that's completed is busted out to an archive file, should I every need to see it again-- which is pretty much never since I'm more concerned about what I need to do next rather than what I did 10 minutes ago, I can always dig it up. I think I've done that once in the last 7 years, give or take. With the prior Archiving behavior it was real nice to just clean the deck, get the debris out, and see *what's left* that needs to be completed. Sure, I could probably use the 'hide' feature, but since I check my total tasks in the reports it would be nice to get an accurate number... The extra completed tasks also bring down the Windows Mobile file since there's now a good deal more tasks in the file itself unless I manually scrub completed tasks. The current workaround is to manually delete them, but given that I used to be able to automate the process using a macro, it's kind of a bummer, and a time sucker, to have to go through and manually delete completed items just because they reside in a project (that will likely be going on for the next 6 months at least....!) Having said that... digging the latest release of 4.1. More good stuff that I'm finding on a daily basis...
