How can I drag & drop to move a task to another project?

How can I drag & drop to move a task to another project?

Am I missing something? It seems I can only drag tasks within the same project.

A bit tricky, but if you use a second finger to tap on another project while dragging, you will succeed.

As Jan mentions, this is much easier to accomplish by using multiple fingers!

  1. Tap and hold your action to lift it.
  2. While continuing to hold the action, use another finger to navigate to the destination project.
  3. Drop the action in the desired place in the outline.

@dfay — To add to what @Jan_H and @aaron shared, I published a free video on Learn OmniFocus that covers this topic: Using Drag and Drop with OmniFocus on iOS 11

I hope you find this helpful!

Cheers,

Thanks. Still I think it would be more intuitive and definitely faster if you could drag a task directly to a project in the sidebar without the extra navigation. That’s what I had expected hence the confusion.
