Agree with virtually all of the first two paragraphs. I have yet to start using ‘Dashboards’ (I also don’t like the term but can’t think of a better one - perhaps ‘Task Organiser’ or ‘Task Board’ or ‘Task Organiser’?) but feel quite excited about the possibilities as I think they have the potential to address a criticism that others have made of MLO which is that it is difficult to get an overview of everything you have to do when you are working on lots of different things (which is why I end up using Trello as well as MLO).
I have from time to time asked for a ‘Lists’ capability such as one gets in Trello (and which is fundamental to a Kanban board). It looks as if one might be able to do this with a ‘Dashboard’ but I need to experiment. I am also interested in the ‘aging feature request’ idea – I am not quite sure what this means but I think I have a similar need. Can you explain a bit more Alexander?

If you combine relevant (different) views in one mega-view for handling the same thing from different viewpoints at the same time - makes a lot of sense. But the name Dashboard suggests some kind of metrics for measuring of progress - to me at least. So if the name was something like "perspective"s or something alike would be easier to get the idea by name :). ideas for improvements: - ability to automatically sync between the different areas - but configurable, not just synched. By this you could have two areas linked and some others just available for "thinking" now extending on the idea of a real dashboard.. - if there was an option available to have the same areas for task navigation - cool - but added other real-dashboardy areas where some aggregate-functions of attributes of the tasks would be computed into an aggregate red/yellow/green indicator to start with - - the you could view different progress areas by navigating the "normal" area while the "dashboardy" area in the overall Dashboard was "working" lastly my aging feature request ;) - better more differenciated groupings for time oriented views - best configurable. just some thoughts. Glad to add more details if appreciated. -Alexander [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> schrieb am Sonntag, 8.

Something much more useful would be split views. You could create a split view using an editor similar to the dashboard editor. Instead of opening in a separate window, the split view would open in a tab. It would provide the full functionality of adding/editing tasks within each pane. So it would be two (or more) views combined into a single tab. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
