Hi Dwight,

Thank you for your reply.

Regarding this thread, I pointed two issues regarding Project Statuses.

*First:*

I created an Autoformat Rule for Inactive Projects (Not Started or 
Suspended), so that everyone in such categories (status) would appear faded 
in my Projects List.

What I realized is that, solely Suspended Projects Tasks appear faded, 
including the project itself.

Regardig Not Started Projects,don't appear faded.



*Second:*

Regarding all your explanation about *Not Started *Projects, I understand 
and agree in such point of view.

But I disagree all about *Suspended *Projects, since they are different 
concept relating to Not Started*.*

For that, their tasks would not be ticked off, unless we change its status 
to: Not Started, In Progress, others.

As you can try, If a project is in a *Suspended *status, its subtasks 
remain enabled for being ticked off.

In which real life situations does it make sense, different from Not 
Started status?
