Initial thoughts (some suggestions/questions)

Ok. Blown away. I've used at least 5 different GTD systems. This one really....flows. The ability to have multiple views open and see 'your stuff'....and narrow down to the moment is amazing.

Multiple windows:
I'm [I]dying[/I] for a 'cascade' function (see microsoft products) and a "tile" function (based on how many windows I have open and my screen size.)

I'm [I]dying[/I] for the title bar to reflect my current "filtered/view" state. I'll have often two or three OF windows up; otherwise I close them all to figure out what hte windows are.

Yeah, like everyone else - I have to be able to name perspectives and soon. Omni, if you looking for a 'model' of how to control arrangements, take a look at the way DVDSP or Motion handles this (it's attached.)

I needs some insight on how reviews are done. I want a 'button' that says 'weekly' and just see all my weekly items for review. Ditto for daily and monthly. Right now, I don't 'get' the review process in OF at all (There's a mark review button?)

For the tiling, maybe Applescript could help. There might be relevant info in [URL="http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=2006122713210062"]this thread[/URL] at macosxhints (including the comments).

I'm actually using the split window from curt clifton (by the way, clif, GREAT scripts).

But, figuring out 'cascade'?

Yeah, after studying the script I was able to get 'someting' to happen. And I even found a different script that hits the ball much closer (from MacOSX hints), but it was in backwards orde.r I know this requires (basically) a descending series of coordinates for the upper left position of the window.
