Hi John.
My answer will either be reasonable to you, or else insufficient for you, but here’s how I’d implement it. Apologies if you already know this. I’d set up a context with hours, called @Evenings, with hours open from 18:00 on. If I needed to see what was upcoming but not yet active, I’d play with a couple of things. Maybe a separate view that has “show closed contexts” on, grouped by context so that I can glance at it to see what’s upcoming in the evening, all the while my primary view has don’t show closed contexts, hence showing only active tasks. Not what you’re looking for, and certainly not relating to timed flags, granted. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of John .

Hello I am still trying to set up tasks that are only shown after 18:00 in the evening. Did "CurrentDateTime" ever get implemented? I would like to have time-of-day can be built into my Advanced Filters so that I can grey out tasks which are set for "~EveningsOnly", but have them go black in the evenings.

You essentially want a filter that says ((flag is off) OR ((flag is on) AND (Now isGreaterThan Today+0.75))) note that Today is the current date and time at Midnight, 0.75 = 18:00 because it's 18/24, and you dont have to test if the current time is later than today at 23:59 because it never is The problem is that the last phrase of this filter uses NOW before the operator isGreaterThan and you can only use field names there. You need a field name of CurrentDateTime and this would be feasible. I would be in favor of a request to implement CurrentDateTime, it would make a lot of stuff possible. Meanwhile, back to reality, do what Andrei says. On Monday, February 27, 2017 at 8:58:36 AM UTC-5, John .
