Time Machine Feature
For certain repeating tasks (ie- MWF: run to the beach and back, TTh: weight lifting at the gym, etc...) I like to assign a start and end date on the same day and then set it to repeat every 1 week. This way tasks for tomorrow or the next day are unavailable today and off my radar so I can focus on today's tasks. When I wake up in the morning and review the days tasks, these tasks have appeared and are now on my radar.
The problem is that I often like to take time in the evening to plan the next day so that I can get moving right away in the morning. So I've been setting my mac's time preference temporarily to the next day while I'm planning in the evening as a temporary fix to this problem. It would be great if OmniFocus had a feature to look ahead at the next days tasks. It could be called "On the Radar for Tomorrow" or whatever. What do you think? -Chris Bellingham, WA |
My suggestion, already submitted through the proper channels: allow "peeking" at non-actionable tasks by holding down the shift key, much the way iPhoto toggles between the original and current version when performing color correction.

Nice idea! Perhaps with a preference to set how much to include in the 'peek' (1 day into the future, 1 week into the future, etc.) |
Cool idea, dansays!
In the interim, for evening reviews I've been using context view, grouped by start, displaying remaining tasks. |

I still would like to be able to see my entire context for tomorrow all in one place, rather than two, since tomorrow's tasks are not all set with a start date. But like you said, this is useful for the interim. -Chris Bellingham, WA |
While the 'peeking' with Shift sounds very useful, I also like the concept of having an On the Radar view as well. Something integrated with a more advanced "Review" system, the current Inspector just isn't cutting it.
