Hi Dwight, OK I think I 90% understand that. The problem is that I have about 8 contexts other than @Errands. Am I really supposed to create an evening version of each of them?! Following advice from elsewhere, I am now using Context to control the task's "executionable Status" too (e.g.

What you are trying to do is simple and easy but the way that you are trying to do it is very complex. If a task has multiple contexts and any one of them is open the task is considered active. So if you have a context, errands,

Hi John Context open/closed hours can be set only on Windows version for the time being. Press f8 to open the contexts list. In the context properties you can see a graphic time table. Click the cells inside of that table to change the open/closed state. BR Andrew -- You received this message

Hi Emerald Sorry I still don't quite understand Context "opening hours". Are we saying that the Context filter will only work in the evenings? Is there any way to using "opening hours" within an Advanced Filter so as to only show those tasks which have my "@EveningsOnly" context when the time

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

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

Hi Andrei Yes, it would certainly be useful for me. Can you remind us how to make such requests? (I seem to remember it being rather technically challenging to formally make the request, but I may be incorrect.) J On Thursday, March 2, 2017 at 6:19:19 PM UTC, Andrei Bacean wrote: > > Hi John

Hi John If you wish the flags to have open/closed hours you can open a feature request. Maybe other users will vote for it. Also i think there may be a strong reason why the flags don't have it. Sorry, can't think about the reasons now, too tired after a working day. Br ab -- You received

You can get close. 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
