Hotkeys to create a new project (folder and effort)

[jaydo...@googlemail.com]

Hello Andrey,

I just read that a new task could easily be changed to become a
project with the hotkey ctrl+j.
(project flag will be set then in the propoerties pane)
That looks fine so far.

I think in most cases projects will be additinally set as folders and
it's (task/folder) effort to be set to zero (left side on the slider)
to get a correct progress bar icon.(as also posted in another
newsgroup entry)
So my questions about this are:

1. where could the hotkey ctrl +j be set or changed? is it hard
implemented in the application? i can't find it in the hotkey
properties of the app?

2. could a hotkey be configured for setting a task as a folder?

3. Could a hotkey be configured for setting a task's (project's)
effort to zero (left side on the slider) to get a correct progress bar
icon?

Maybe one new configurable hotkey-option could be implemented as "new
project" what mean:
- a new task, with the properties (set as project, set as folder ,and
effort to zero [slider to the left side])

Would be a very usefull additon.

I may have a similar question. I'm just trying out MLO and I seem to
be able to create tasks just fine, but not new folders. I've reviewed
the help and see some discussion of folders, but not how to create
them. Must be missing something basic.

There is a Folder checkbox in the Properties pane on the right.

Also, type the switch -f after the task and press ALT+ENTER.
