I'm very interested in three of the features that Tzal requested a couple of years back:
- A setting to have folder due dates set to the earliest due dates of the children, rather than have independent due dates? (This is really important, because it would be nice to keep folders collapsed to avoid the clutter. But not if you lose visibility to the due dates of the tasks that they contain!) - A setting to convert tasks into folders when child tasks are added? - A setting to remove start date as an option? (It sounds like he and I are trying to use folders in the same way.) On Thursday, June 16, 2011 at 9:03:31 PM UTC-7, Tzal wrote: > > I've been using MLO for 48 hours and it's great!
