I think I just found a way that works FOR ME: - I have a Workspace called "Projets en cours" meaning Active Projects; - In this Workspace, in the AdvancedFilter, I have "IsProject is true"; - Based on David Allen's GTD, we should always do a weekly review, and within this weekly review plan the week ahead; - Let's say we are sunday the 08 of mai today and I am doing my weekly review; - I will modify the date of sunday the 08 to sunday the 15th of mai in the "To" within the StartDate Filter on the left, and leave the "From" blank to leave the already active projects intact. - I also check the "Hide Undated" box in the StartDate Filter. And so, if I feel that an undated futur project should appear in the Active Project Workspace, I will then create a start date within this week for it, and this project will (from now on) appear in my Active Project Workspace.
