The issue I am having is when I click on the Today perspective, the only contexts that should be showing (I would imagine) would be ones that have been flagged or are due. So this is my Today perspective for today. There is one action in there (which has been flagged and should be in there) under the context MacBook Pro : Online. However, if you look there are two other contexts that are listed to the left and do not have actionable items (nothing is due nor is flagged under these contexts).
I get the same results when I set up a perspective like yours. I think this has been discussed on the forums before, but cannot think how to find those references easily. Suggest you write to omni support. Sorry I’m not more help.
I’m guessing here. The sidebar will show contexts even if they are empty. This allows you to drag a task from the main outline to another context. If the context is not visible, you wouldn’t be able to drag and drop.
Thanks Wilson for taking a look. I found both of those threads before and tried them, however they did not work. I even went to the length of deleting the customer perspective and trying again.
This is my “Today” perspective so the objective is to complete all the actions on it. Once that is done, the contexts should completely disappear and I can move to the “Contexts” or “Projects” perspective to work on other items. The idea behind the drag and drop doesn’t help here nor is needed so there should be a hidden feature.
Could it be that you have “Focus” set to a specific project / folder? It seems that contexts are considered empty if they don’t have actions in any project and don’t take into account your “Focus”
