Hi, Bob. The behaviour you are looking for is implemented in Zoom, not in Filter. Get rid of the toplevelparent filters and instead, select the top level parent for each view, select it, right click and select Zoom In. You get pretty much the same view except (1) the top level parent is not itself a part of the view any longer (2) you now have a banner across the top of the view stating that it is zoomed, (3) newly created tasks are created at the root level of the zoom (ie the top level parent) rather then the root of the whole tree. -Dwight Mlo betazoid on Android sgn2
