Hi MLO,
A) Are feature requests on this forum seen by MLO dev? I taught I had seen a dedicated place for these with voting system but can't seem to find it?
B) One of the many features I like about MLO Windows is the possibility to have one more date. The Review date (aka Follow-up date). Having a fixed Day, Week, Month is sometime helpful but could be brought a very simple enhancement. The ability to right click on it to change the Review date. Same as the Start and Due, instead of accessing the Properties pane
Typical scenario :
- Every year you have Project or task(s) that needs to be started on January 1st. The deadline is April 30th.
- You start working on it on January 1st until you now depend on someone or something else. (Waiting for or Delegated)
- Many time you speak to the person an agree that she'll get back to you by February 1st.
- You don't want to change neither the Start Date or Due date as it would impact next year. Still you want it out of your way but re-visit it on Feb 1st.
- This is where the Review date comes handy. But the recurrence is only your best guess.
- Come Feb. 1st, you try to contact that person with no luck. It is Friday so if you had set (1) Week, it is too far and (1) Day brings it up over the week-end.
In short rarely follow-up will follow a fixed pattern. Having the same Sub-menu for Review date as for Start and Due would be a nice enhancement.
