In short, you can't. It doesn't have that ability natively. HOWEVER--

What you can do is sync an MLO file via MLO cloud-- or just a portion of one (probably even a single task), and have the other use sync to the same file in the cloud.

It's been 10+ years since I did this last, but MLO doesn't really change.

If I recall what I did, I had my "Master" MLO file that had all my own stuff in it.
I had a section in there for a particular project.
I created a specific sync (branch option) for just that piece of the project.
I had my friend connect to that section, so we were now "sharing" that bit section of tasks, but he couldn't see anything else in my Master MLO file.
This part, I'm not sure about, but I think I had my own, separate sync for the entire Master file, but it seems like double-sync'ing the same section would cause problems, though I don't remember it being an issue.

Since Tasks don't have an owner (you could make one via custom fields, I guess), I used flags and icons to indicate what was delegated and its status.

MLO is not at all set up for it, but you can see what's possible.

I didn’t read Flet’s full reply, so excuse me I repeat. Here’s how I did it:

 

  1. Either create a flag for each person, then set views for each person which filter for their flag.
  2. Or, ditto for text tags.

 

So, each colleague has MLO, and a view which filters for their tasks (flags or text tags).  With 1 click you can delegate to anyone you want.

 

Take Care,
