Hi, John. I don’t understand your situation well enough to be able to help you with a solution but I can talk through MLO’s concept of filtered hierarchies and maybe it will help.
It appears to me that you want to apply a filter to your hierarchy and have it applied across all the levels of your hierarchy. Unfortunately it’s not that simple. Hierarchical views are created in two steps (well, more really but only two that matter to this discussion) First, the main and advanced filters are applied to create a flat list of items that pass the filter at that level. The second step makes it hierarchical: the children and/or parents (per your request) are attached to each of the items that passed step one. The children and/or parents are filtered based *not* on the main and advanced filters but on the child filter and/or parent filter (click the “config” button after the Show Hierarchy filter). Then the resulting trees are merged and your view is ready. I’m not sure if this is what you are after, but you could try turning Show Completed to Yes in the main filter and adding a child filter, Complete is False None of this explains why you would get a nearly empty view when you set the main filter for Show Completed to No. We would have to dig further – if you don’t need to investigate this question that’s great, otherwise please let us know whether the project or any level parent of the missing tasks were completed. If not, to investigate this further I would ask you to post your profile file to the forum – if you do not want to publish the actual contents of your profile (I wouldn’t) maybe you could create a new blank profile, set up some dummy projects and tasks and reproduce the situation there, and then post it. -Dwight On Monday, March 16, 2015 11:22 AM, John Lewis Fitzpatrick wrote: Advanced Filter settings are default for "By due date" view (DueDateTime / Exists). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
