Hello
What is the quickest way to join two rows together?
i.e. I keep wanting to the first child task onto the end of a part task's
name
e.g. I would want:
Line 1: HOUSE ORGANISED
Line 2: - Clear bedroom
to now become:
Line 1: HOUSE ORGANISED - Clear bedroom
i.e. now all on the one line!
*BACKGROUND*
I am in the habit of writing a task in the form:
[PROJECT NAME] ==> [next action]
e.g. Suppose I had a project like this:
HOUSE ORGANISED [as a Project]
- Clear bedroom [as a task with the Project]
- Clear TV room [as a task with the Project]
- Clean Kitchen surfaces [as a task with the Project]
- Clear Kitchen cupboards [as a task with the Project]
Ideally I like to see:
"HOUSE ORGANISED ==> Clear bedroom"
And then at a single click (on the small triangle before the project's
name) I could see all the tasks below it by "un-collapsing" the child
tasks.
HOUSE ORGANISED ==> Clear bedroom
Clear TV room
Clean Kitchen surfaces
Clear Kitchen cupboards
Yes, I know that I want to see *just* the first task within the project,
obviously I could use the MLO functionality of "Show Next Actions", however
there are problems:
1. I want very quickly (i.e. at a single click) see what all the other
tasks within the project are. And in order to to this in MLO using/not
using Show Next Actions, I would need to *change workarea* (i.e. tab). And
this is rather clunky.
2. The project name "HOUSE ORGANISED" *must *be made into a MLO Project
(e.g. using Alt+J) . This is only a slight pain but...
3. Any other parent tasks that have not been made into MLO Projects simply
disappear from the "Show Next Actions" view! Which can be extremely
confusing.
4. In any case rather than all being on the one line, it would then take up
two lines which wastes precious vertical space: i.e.
Line 1: HOUSE ORGANISED
Line 2: - Clear bedroom
instead of just:
Line 1: HOUSE ORGANISED - Clear bedroom
My conclusion is that in many cases I would prefer to not bother with
allocating formal MLO Project, and not bother with having to change tabs, I
would like to have sub-tasks within a task and simply manually append the
next task on the list onto the project's name.
But how can I do this in MLO?
Cheers
J
