: Change order of tasks?
: 1luca August 18, 2010, 02:59:38 PM

Hi, is there a way to change the order of tasks. I just entered a new sub task that went to the top. I can't see why it went there, and how I could change the order?

Thanks.

OK I've got it: [Order by: "Created on"] seems to work...

However, that stops working in the child tasks when you save the parent as a template then recreate the parent task in another workspace, from the template. (It's awesome that the child tasks get created automaticall though).

A possible answer then is to put a number at the start of each task name then [Order by: Task name]. Which is doable as task names are about the fastest things to edit in Feng Office (thank goodness).

Any other thoughts: I'd be interested to hear...

Currently numbers are the way to go.

Or letters.

OK, great, I'll work with those. For now I'm using numbers on the parent tasks and lower case letters on the children.

Is there any new about this suggestion? Numbering items is not a good idea when you create them dynamically and you want to put new tasks between other two ...

We would open a sponsorship opportunity for a feature that allows "Definition of previous tasks".

Contact sales (@fengoffice.com) if interested.
