Looking for some support on feature request
 
I'm hoping others can chime in on a feature request. Currently when you add a start/end time for a task, the date/time will default to 5:00pm. I would like to have the ability to modify the default insert time for start/end dates for a task.

Anyone else want this too?

In fact this has been something I've noticed like the fact that it defaults to tomorrow when I often have tasks that I'd like to complete today. It would be better to default to today as this is e earliest completion! Anyway, being fully user customisable would give users the ability to satisfy their own process and use.

This value gets synced from the Mac OmniFocus settings. If you don't have the Mac app, you can set it via clicking on a URL like this:

[URL="omnifocus:///change-setting?DefaultDueTime=22:00"]omnifocus:///change-setting?DefaultDueTime=22:00[/URL]

Wow, whpalmer4, thanks!

aliteralmind 2010-10-16 04:09 PM

Wait a minute. I expected this would be one of the special

[url]http://people.omnigroup.com/kc/DebugOmniFocus[/url]

pages. It's not.

Is there a listing of the universe of these settings and their possible values?

It's a veritable invisible configuration GOLD MINE for us Touch-only OF users!!!

(oh just let me dream.)

Well, one of my projects is to compile such a list, but it doesn't have a big purple checkmark yet :)

Perfect!
 
Thanks @whpalmer4 for the tip. I'll also raise my hand in saying I am anxiously awaiting a full list like the one you described. Thanks again.

In OmniFocus for iPad 1.1, tapping the Due button will set the due date to Today @ 5 PM (or your preferred due time), then show the date picker so that you can adjust it if necessary.

Tapping +1 Day starts you off at Tomorrow @ 5 PM (or your preferred due time.)
