Lisa, thanks for the suggestions. I would love to solve this issue by using inheritance but I haven't been able to imagine how it would work. If you can make any suggestions I would be most appreciative.
What I am doing in the interim is to temporarily ignore context closure. It's easy enough to do but only partially effective. My objective is that every task near the top of my "today" view is something that I could and should be working on right now. Ignoring context closure does effectively add tasks from usually-closed contexts like "@yardwork" to the view. But it also adds tasks from other, irrelevant contexts like #Winter'sWeeklyTasks or #Mom'sHouse. And it does nothing to remove normal workday Monday tasks from contexts like @work. -Dwight Mlo betazoid on Android sgn2 On May 30, 2014, Lisa Stroyan <[email protected]> wrote: >Couldn't you have views that do not consider open/closed context, or is >that too many views to re-create?
