[MLO] Recommended practice for archiving tasks, folder, notes

2017-10-11 Thread Laurence Glazier
I used to use folders without children for short notes, but now I use tasks set as hidden branches. Because I like a folder to be a folder. Either way, there is an issue when it comes to archiving a completed sub-outline. Perhaps a project that has been completed, and the project checkbox

I agree, and think it should be a setting for each task whether subtasks inherit context. Because of this, I sometimes use hashtags in the caption, and filter on a flat list to find those items. Laurence -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

Thank you, Alyona, I think I can use this technique for financial budgeting too, which I queried in the forum recently. A specific currency field would be nice, as hear I would have to use the Hours field, or else be limited to 60. Perhaps it could have a checkbox to optionally inherit the

Thanks Dwight. Re sorting of hierarchical lists, I can understand that one might want to look at projects in sequence with the more critical ones first (i.e sort on calculated-score of the project), and then look for a next action for each one (based on calculated-score of active items within

I have remembered a way of doing this on Android. You first have to make a repeating task on the desktop version, and delete the Regenerate next task field. If you then synchronize your file to Android, you have a task that, when clicked as done, uncompletes itself and all subtasks. Once that
