[MLO] Re: Accessing Recurrence dialog box (using keyboard)

2016-08-07 Thread pottster 
Ah, ok George, you didn't mention if you were setting up a recurrence or 
editing an existing one. If you are editing an existing recurrence then alt 
+ d does take you to the recurrence dialog. Unfortunately, as you say, 
applying a new recurrence setting requires a mouse click to access the 
dialog. It is still  possible to automate this process using a keyboard 
shortcut via AutoHotkey if you are familiar with creating scripts with that 
program.

[MLO] Re: Saving a bunch of different task properties

2016-08-07 Thread george 
Hi, Dwight

Thanks for the tip about the template. Hotkey is possible for Create new 
from template. Let me give it a try and see how it goes. 

(Please do move this to a new topic so as to keep "keyboard access to 
recurrence" as a separate topic. Sorry, forgot about the guidelines.. 
Thanks)

[MLO] Saving a bunch of different task properties

2016-08-07 Thread Dwight Arthur 

Hi, George.
Your request sounds to me like a template. Set up a task with the 
properties you desire and save it someplace. Then go to where you want a 
new task with these properties and select the menu item "create new from 
template". Point to the task you saved before. MLO will make a new copy of 
the task, and you can go ahead and edit to put in the unique 
characteristics of this new copy (new caption or whatever. Sorry, I can't 
tell you exactly where in the menu to look for "create new from template" 
as I don't have access to Windows right now.


You wanted a hotkey for this. Just giessing here, but maybe there is a 
hotkey for the create from template command, and maybe you could set a 
bookmark to the template and ise the bookmark's hotkey to specify the template.


Tip: to avoid having templates cluttering up your to-do list,  put them in 
a folder called "Templates" and mark the folder "hide branch in to-do."


-Dwight

Ps we are definitely not talking about keyboard access to recurrence any 
more, so to try to cpmply with the guideline of one topic per thread, I am 
attempting to move this to a new thread. -d

Could there be something missing from my set up? I tried on two different

(BTW, I wish there was a way to save a bunch of different task properties
as a macro and apply it to any task with a single hotkey. It would be nice
to have a set number (10 or so) of such macro slots just like we have
bookmarks now

different fields in the properties sections)

Thanks.

Re: [MLO] Cut and paste bug

2016-08-07 Thread Laurence Glazier 
Unfortunately the built in Move does not work within a project view. But I have 
found a work around now. If the source item is in a separate window, it can be 
dragged and dropped into a project view.

[MLO] Re: Accessing Recurrence dialog box (using keyboard)

2016-08-07 Thread george 
Hi pottster,

Alt+d only opens up the Time & Remainder properties section activating the 
Due date field. Still can't open up recurrence link from there without 
clicking on "Recurrence" using mouse. Tabbing won't jump to recurrence 
either.
Could there be something missing from my set up? I tried on two different 
test files. same result.

(BTW, I wish there was a way to save a bunch of different task properties 
as a macro and apply it to any task with a single hotkey. It would be nice 
to have a set number (10 or so) of such macro slots just like we have 
bookmarks now
 and  It would save a lot of time without having to click through the 
different fields in the properties sections)

Thanks.
