Yes I live in my Outline view! (Mostly in All Task, Active). I also use the folders to house different GTD lists (e.g. Maybe Do, Definitely Do) plus other stuff for review later (e.g. Reflective Thoughts, New Ideas, GTD Theory...) ... all of which I hide from Active view and so can only see through my All Tasks view.
Fwiw, I then use the sort order in my All Tasks Active view to establish core (relative) priority and then use markups with *bold* and/or hightlight to establish short time priority and finally at the start of every day I use Stars to establish what I'm gonna work on today. I have also just started using Bookmarks go get to the folder I want fast. It's pretty basic but it works for now! I was wasting FAR too much time messing with the system > You might be better off with Ctrl+x and Ctrl+v - this adds to top of folder list. Thanks! Yes not bad. The keyboard sequence is - Control/X - DownArrow - Control/V - Enter It does work. However it's a bit fiddly - 4 keyboard interactions just to go down one row! Any other suggestions?
