I’m trying to do what seems to be to be like a pretty simple use case, but for the life of me it seems like it doesn’t exist.
I’m a person who likes to SEE the things I’ve accomplished during the day. This helps with my motivation to continue with more tasks. I would have thought a lot of people would feel like this?
I simply want my Completed Tasks to REMAIN in my Perspective until the end of day. Can anyone point me to a way of making this happen?
(Yes, I know there’s a “Completed List”, this is not useful. I want to see the completed items alongside the things I still have to do).
I believe the Completed perspective is built-in. Check the Perspectives menu and you’ll find the Completed perspective.
If you have the Pro edition, you can also make a custom perspective with your own personal settings. Here is the perspective settings I see in my own Completed perspective.
I don’t really look at this perspective to give me a sense of satisfaction and motivation. I’m too focused on the next incoming task to visit this perspective. I use this perspective differently than many folks.
At the end of the day, I do a daily review. One of the perspectives I visit is the Completed perspective. I look at my completed tasks to see if I need to create a follow-up task.
You can also create a Complete custom perspective grouped by projects and focused on Work projects or Personal projects to see what you’ve done in a particular project.
The closest I can think of us to set the perspective to show all tasks. But that’s overkill because you wanted only tasks due today but also show completed… Hmmm…
I do believe that the developers will need to get better perspective settings to allow AND/OR equations.
You can change the presentation to sort by project or tags. I’m gonna guess that you’ll probably focus on a project or folder to make the list more narrow.
