Is there a way to create a view that filters for more than one context?

[Holmes245]

Hey guys, I had a question. I'm trying to create a new view that's filtered using a context but is there a way to filter for more than one context? In this case, I created a reading list. I have both Kindle books and hard copy books that I added to the contexts but it seems I can only filter for one context. Is there a way to filter for two contexts, in this case 'kindle' and 'books' if they're listed in the context? Whenever I go to the context filter in the view setup, I seem to only be able to filter one or the other contexts but not both. When I select both using CTRL, they both disappear. Thanks guys. Any help is appreciated.

Hey Joel,

If you're doing this on the desktop you can create a third 'parent' context that includes the contexts you care about.  Then set your view or filter based on this super-context.  I have about a dozen of these 'super' contexts that I use for shopping/errands lists, ppl agendas, etc.

On the mobile i can't speak to iDevices thought maybe, since supposedly they can import desktop views but on Android you're pretty much SOL as the tasks don't filter up to the parent/super context.  They also don't appear in child context unless they are 'active' tasks.

Use a second filter clause for context with OR if you want either or AND if you want both.
