No, I can't point to a post that will explain this. I thought I had explained it in my prior post but see that I wasn't clear enough.
Try this: make sure that there are tasks in your "active actions" view with at least three different contexts. Create four new tabs and load the Active Actions view in each. Then, go to the first new tab and, in the left sidebar in the "contexts" section, select one of the three contexts that are present on the view. DO NOT TAP "SAVE VIEW". The task list should immediately shrink to only the tasks with the selected context. Now go to the next tab and so the same with a second context, and the same in the third tab with a third context. Leave the fourth tab alone. Now go back to each of the four tabs and set the current view as default for each tab. Each tab now shows a different list of tasks but they are all using the same view. You can close mlo and reopen it and the tabs continue to show a difference. You can change the tabs to other views and then reset them to default and these differences come back. They are obviously being stored somewhere but it's not in the view. It's in the workspace. Now, these are settings that could have been saved to a view. But there are other things, like zoom level and current selected task, that are saved in the workspace that cannot be saved in a view. Does that help?
