Flag View

The Flag View is a built-in view that displays high-priority tasks or tasks tagged with #flagged. It provides a focused perspective on your most important tasks that require attention.

Open the flag view

1. Open the Task Genius View.
2. Select Flag nav item in the left sidebar.
3. You will see the tasks grouped by flag in the right panel.

Usage

• Task Display: Shows tasks that have a priority level of 3 or higher, or tasks that include the #flagged tag.
• Filtering:
  • Text Filter: A search bar in the header allows for quick filtering of displayed tasks by their content (case-insensitive).
  • Rule-Based Filtering: Applies predefined filter rules (see settings) to determine which tasks are initially loaded into the view.
  • Priority Filtering: By default, only shows tasks with priority level 3+ or the #flagged tag.
• View Modes:
  • List View (): Displays tasks as a flat list.
  • Tree View (): Displays tasks hierarchically, showing parent-child relationships.
• Task Count: The header displays the current number of flagged tasks visible after applying filters.
• Sorting: Tasks are automatically sorted based on the following order:
  1. Completion status (incomplete tasks first).
  2. Priority (higher priority first).
  3. Due Date (earlier dates first).
  4. Task content (alphabetical).
• Interactions:
  • Selection: Click on a task to select it (used for detail views or actions).
  • Completion: Mark tasks as complete directly within the view.
  • Context Menu: Right-click on a task to open a context menu for more actions.
• Lazy Loading: For performance with large numbers of tasks, the view loads tasks in batches as you scroll down.
