Hi guys,
i was testing Urgency and importance levels on folders. Very very useful. 
Anyways i noticed that any task or project dragged under folders, doesn't keep the same folder's urgency/importance level.  (you have to manually change them)
Am i missing how to do that or is it a missing feature?

Thanks

Don't do that. :)

The items under the folder don't EXPLICITLY inherit the importance/urgency level of the parent but when those task items have their "score" calculated (the score determines how high up on a task view (non-outline view) a task appears)  the importance/urgency of the parent is already weighed and considered.  So for example if you touch nothing but go to the top level parent branch and crank up importance to the max, that branch and any/every task under it will rise in importance relative to all the other branches.  

Another way to think of it is that the import/urgen scores are relative to other tasks at the same "level" and/or "sub levels" but with consideration for the importance/urgency of all it's parents as well.

hth.

Francesco, do you have a copy of the User Guide?
(http://www.mylifeorganized.net/downloads/files/MyLifeOrganized%20User%27s%20Guide.pdf)

The section on Computed Score gives a very thorough explanation of  importance and urgency in hierarchies that Joel was telling you about.
