[MLO] Re: Macro to insert ascii character or special text?

If you use Markdown formatting in your MLO notes (which you can enable and disable via Tools --> Options --> Appearance), then typing a hyphen and space at the start of the line ("- ") will render as a bullet in view mode. However, many people don't like the complication of having to switch

[MLO] Re: Keep track of tasks you recently worked/are working on

Where it's whole projects that I pause, it's quite easy to set the project to suspended and then change my view filter (or grouping) to hide all the tasks in that project. For individual tasks, this will take quite a lot more clicks and time to manage. There are a few options: I often adjust

[MLO] Re: How to customize Active Actions Views for each project?

Hello KC. This is one of the benefits of MLO over other project and task management apps - Once you get into the filtering, grouping and sorting options (and in particular the advanced filter), there is very little you can't customise! You don't mention whether you're thinking about the views

[MLO] Re: Menu (hamburger) button difficult to tap on iPhone

I haven't noticed this problem. However, it's probably because I always swipe from the left edge when trying to bring up the menu and filter options - As a workaround, maybe you could train yourself to swipe/drag the menu "burger" towards the right. On Wednesday, 4 August 2021 at 20:42:27

[MLO] Re: Why do tasks in a suspended project show up as active actions / next actions?

I often find the lack of dependencies between different task parameters a bit frustrating, too. However, this doesn't need to affect your filtered view looking the way you want it - the flexibility of the custom filters functions generally more than makes up for this. To make your next actions

[MLO] Re: Duplicate Task in Two Places

It would be pretty complicated to have the same task appearing in multiple places in one outline, I think. Darryl, would Alyona's suggestion of using contexts work for you? 344cl, have you tried using "dependencies" and the "complete tasks in order" option to flag up that common tasks need to

[MLO] Re: Importing MyLifeOrganized XML Document error

Thanks for pointing that out, Rambunctious. I try to avoid using & in filenames and in other apps, because it's used as a wildcard. I hadn't spotted that this is also a problem if it's used in task captions in MLO. On Tuesday, 20 July 2021 at 08:27:47 UTC+1 rambunctious wrote: > Importing a

[MLO] Re: Manual Sorting changed after disabling grouping (none), bug or by design?

I haven't used manual sorting in views (I prefer MLO to do as much of the work as possible so would rather set suitable automatic sorting criteria) so I haven't experienced your problem. I can see why MLO does that, though - As soon as you change any automatic filtering and sorting criteria,

[MLO] Re: Why do those completed occurrences not appear in completed task list?

Hello Kuke. Sorry, I don't understand the questions. Can you give an example of a completed task which doesn't appear in the completed tasks list? Do you have details of the filter you're using for the completed tasks list? I've never heard of any social network or other group chat app called
