I think that many people's exposure to Outline will be in word processing or report preparation, and this is exactly analogous to the use in MLO. See here https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Use-Outline-View-to-manage-headings-and-arrange-text-5e4c6831-b495-4aec-a7b8-7899b0ffda04 for the finite on in Word.
I see the headings and indentations as directly relatable to Tasks and sub tasks. Other task management software such as GTDNext also use Outline to describe the arrangement of projects and tasks http://blog.gtdnext.com/task-management-outline-view/. So I support the current use of Outline. Nick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
