Yes, thank you, Oliver - that is helpful. That gives me a view (which I've
called 'Hidden Tasks') of my Outline that, when expanded, shows all active
items and also any completed items that still have active items under them.
There are a few such instances showing up, so that's very useful.
My Outline is large enough that it takes about 80 'page-down's to look
through it all.
I wonder if there's a way or reducing this Hidden Tasks view to show only
the completed items together with the active items under them.
If one item meets the criteria, the affected parts of the outline might
then all fit on a single screen
Of course, ideally, the Hidden Tasks view should be blank, meaning there
are no completed items with active items under them.
Regards
Wol
