A Quick Procedural Question about Workspaces

[Darryl Brooks]

After reading a lot of posts here. I have a tab at the left with all tasks and it is locked and pinned. Unlike some others, I made this view without completed.

I have also created a few more tabs, which I have also locked.

My question is, how does everyone jump to other views using the menu on the left? If all my useful workspaces are locked, and I click on a different view, it creates a new tab with that view. This may be useful, but isn't necessarily what I am trying to do. 

I don't want to leave my tabs unlocked, because if I click on a new view, then it changes and I'm not sure how/when/if it gets changed back.

My solution is I created a tab I called Random Views with a starting view of All Tasks and left it unlocked. 

Is there a best practice for this, or does everyone handle it differently?

Thanks again

That's pretty-much exactly what I do - leave a tab unlocked to change views, zoom and filters as much as I want.

Answering quickly, on the desktop I have a tab for each view.  On rare occasions when I want to change views within a tab (typically from “todo home” to “todo remote”) I right click the top of the tab to change views; ie, I never use the left pane except to edit options.

Not following you. If I right-click on a tab, I get many choices, but none to change views.

 I am also interested in how others handle this.

 I am having trouble making MLO Android useful, and when I have time to try to fix that, I think I might find that views are more useful than tabs because they can sync with mobile. So I might change up how I do things then.

 Currently, I keep all of my tabs pinned and locked (I currently have 20, and use about 8 of them daily), and whenever I try to change something the lock prevents, it automatically opens a new tab. The only clunky part is that it generally just copies the tab, and I have to re-click to make the change I attempted. But otherwise, I simply use the new tab that opens up. If a tab is not pinned and I don't recognize it anymore, I know it can be closed, so if a tab ever bothers me I just close it.

Thanks to Michael for that tip, I am trying out using tabs and keeping the left pane for filters.

Darryl, the place to right click is at the top left of the middle pane, where it says "View:"

i don't use tabs/workspace. I only have 1 tab.

Tab/workspace is useful if you want to ZOOM into separate trees (work/personal/family...etc)

If i need a separate windows,  i use the [F3] pop up windows. easier when trying to copy paste tasks.

I only use the views, which are the options we have on the left side panel.

Hope this is helpful. :-)

Hello Darryl,

To change a View within a Workspace, you'll see "View:....>>" just above the outline/flat view contents of your MLO file. If you right-click on that, you'll get a list of views and can select a different view from there.
