I´m using the MLO 4.3.1 Pro (Trial) now for a week and would like to give other users and maybe even the developer a first feedback as this is the typical timespan where i (users) decide whether to use the product or not.
I´m familiar with many taskmanagers like Outlook, TDL and a lot Standalone iPhone Apps. As i was looking for something which syncs continuesly to other pc´s and mobile (Apple-) devices i took a closer look at MLO. I like the sophisticated Filter, Automatic Formatting, Context and Sorting Options. So you are able to display the relevant tasks depending of time and loaction. The Workspace concept is a real time saver. I never worked with an taskmanager that autonomously put the tasks in order by urgency and importance, although i don´t use that calculation yet. The userinterface appears light considered the functionality build in. *SO FAR SO GOOD BUT. . .* In our complex world it´s vitally important that taskrelevant informations attend the workflow of your task. How easy it is to work when all information you need is at your fingertips. Often you drag relevant information in the notes of your task. Or you start writing a memo in MLO which you later refine with MS Word etc. That being said i seriously doubt one of this is possible whith the Notes concept of MLO. I searched for a switch to activate the Rich Text Editor but couldn´t find it. It´s unbelievable that i can not even underline a word!! But it gets worse. With TAB-Button you leave the notesarea! With the secret hotkey CTRL + I you get TAB functionality. I´m sure most users don´t know this. With CTRL + DEL you do not delete the word right from the cursor like in 99% of every Texteditor or Website. Instead you delete the entire task!! I don´t now if i ever get used alone to that huge limitation. If you drag an Outlook Element in a task is created containing an link. But when you click on the link you get "The operation system denied access to the specified file." I use MLO on two pc´s now. I ex-, imported my themes but it seem that other settings like hotkeys are impossible to transfer, right? Where are those settings stored. How can i adapt a second pc? If you choose manual sorting and reorder tasks manually that order of tasks is destroyed if Sorting is activated. Even if the tasks do not have the sortingparameter or that parameter is equal for each of them! So thanks for reading up to here. What do you think? Did i overlook something? Is anyone getting happy with the text "editor" in Notes? Is there hope MLO get rid of those flaws in the future? Has been anything announced yet? I would like to decide soon whether to use oder discard the product. Thank You Alex -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
