Hi Folks,
I am starting to use OF3 (Pro) for iOS. I have a question about the way that custom perspectives work in iOS compared to MacOS.
In MacOS, I have a custom perspective that does not use the the project heirarchy, so in the sidebar there is a list of all my tags. Thus, when I am using my mac, I can sit in that perspective and select the tags that are appropriate to the context I am in.
As a simplified example, I could Select the “Home” tag to see actions that I need to do at home and the “Work” tag to see the actions that I need to do at work, but I did not need to change the settings of the perspective itself.
I have been looking at the documentation for the OF3 in iOS at:
https://support.omnigroup.com/documentation/omnifocus/ios/3.11/en/
From what I can tell, there is no equivalent for the list of tags in the sidebar, so when I look at this perspective in iOS, I see all of the actions that fit that perspective, with no way to limit the tagged actions that appear. So if I am using iOS at home, I see a bunch of actions tagged “Work” that are irrelavant to my context, but I cannot make them go away.
It seems like the solution for this is to “clone” my perspective into duplicates, and then each duplicate will filter the tags that I want to see in each context. Again in my example I would have a perspective-Home that would include the “Home” tag in its filter, and a perspective-Work that would include the “Work” tag in its filter, and so when I am using iOS, instead of staying in the same perspective and switching tags in the sidebar, I would instead actually switch perspectives.
Is this the way to do it? This is an acceptable solution for me, but I just wanted to make sure that there is not an easier/better way before I go cloning my perspective and customizing them for the different contexts where I would be using iOS.
Thanks a bunch for any help. Apologies if this is unclear.
