My work has a lot of editing and proofreading of book chapters. I frequently have to create tasks like “proofread book” that consist of subtasks like “proofread chapter 1” since it’s such a big task and easier to do when broken down into chapter chunks.
What’s the best way to do this? I wish OF had something like Excel where you can select two cells and Excel makes a best guess to extend the selection with months, numbers, etc.
I don’t have taskpaper but I think an importable template is the way to go and when I looked for OF import options I saw that it can import OO docs so I’ll probably go that way, thanks.
My Excel is being odd right now so I can’t test it, but I think in the past I’ve also copied a series of Excel cells into OmniFocus and had them convert into tasks (I may have copied into TextEdit or something first). So, that may also be a valid option.
