I was trying to use the task categories feature the other day to
solvea problem I am having, and found it just did not meet my needs.
I have a task filter, let's say "All Open Tasks". What I wanted to do
was some triage and planning. What I would have liked to have been
able to do was create some folders/categories that lived within
thefilter, and then drag and drop tasks into the folders.
You can almost do this with the existing feature. The part that is
missing is that when you have a big list of tasks in a filter there is
no way to know which tasks have been put into one of these categories
and which ones have not. For this purpose it made the feature useless
because I could not even keep track of which tasks I had already
assigned categories too, let alone the fact that new tasks might come
inon the next synchronization etc...
I could have perhaps used the scheduling system as a bastardized way
of doing this. It is just that I am not personally going to be doing
any of these tasks, and I am not that interested in actual dates at
the moment. I just wanted to make some ad-hoc grouping of tasks so
that
I can get a better picture of the work.
Thanks
Mark
