[/QUOTE] It shows the number of due items. (The release notes are your friend.) |
What determines the number of "due items" though? I have lots more than 2 unchecked tasks pending...

[/QUOTE] I think the accounting is still out of whack but that's what it's intended to show. I do urge you to read the release notes as the function is covered there. |

I just did. The explanation in the notes is completely incomprehensible. :) doug |

The accounting is definitely out of whack in this version, but right now the number indicates those items that are either due [i]today[/i] or [i]overdue[/i]. It seems to have no additional consideration for "Due Soon" (items due within the next x days, as set in preferences).
In looking at the actual numbers that appear in the [i]Contexts[/i] listing, it would seem that a red "Due/Overdue" seems to override a "Due Soon" number, which may be the reason for this inconsistency. For example, in my "Mac" context, I have the default two sub-contexts: Email and Online. Right now, the parent Mac context has two items, one overdue, and one due tomorrow ("Due Soon"), yet it only shows a red badge with the number 1 beside it. Further, I have one sub-context with a due item (red badge), and one context with a "due soon" item (orange badge). When I collapse the "Mac" context, the total count is "2" rather than 3 or 4 (it [i]should[/i] be 4, but the "Due Soon" item in the main Mac context doesn't get counted either). See the attached screenshots for an example of what I'm talking about...

I never set any due dates at all though. Hmm...

Did you set due dates for a project? Actions inherit their project's due date unless you specify a different due date for them. |
