How to show time in the Due Date column? [A: can enable. see thread.]
I have made the due column very wide so there is plenty of space to show the time as well as the day, but nothing extra appears.
Have I done something wrong, or is this just a lacking feature in the software? |
You have to turn on the display. From the 1.7 release notes:
In addition to "Yesterday", "Today" and "Tomorrow" you can have date cells show the time. Since this feature is still experimental there isn't a preference interface for it yet, but here are some commands you can enter into Terminal to adjust the built-in settings: [code] defaults write com.omnigroup.OmniFocus RelativeDateFormatterShowTime YES defaults write com.omnigroup.OmniFocus RelativeDateFormatterDefaultWantsTruncatedTime YES defaults write com.omnigroup.OmniFocus RelativeDateFormatterUseRelativeDayNames YES defaults write com.omnigroup.OmniFocus RelativeDateFormatterDateFormatStyle medium [/code] |
Nice. Thanks.

Beauty! Since I like to see my time in 24h format, I just substituted the second line with
defaults write com.omnigroup.OmniFocus RelativeDateFormatterDefaultWantsTruncatedTime NO ... works like a treat. |
Hello. I have been using the above hint with the trial of Omnifocus. I finally bought Omnifocus from the Mac App Store and this hint no longer works. Any ideas on how I can re-enable it? The hint was so useful and I became so used to it.
Thanks. |
I found out why it doesn't work.
The Apple Store uses com.omnigroup.OmniFocus.MacAppStore.plist instead of com.omnigroup.OmniFocus.plist and the options available in the MacAppStore version are limited. However, I copied the four missing values and added them manually to the plist and after restarting Omnifocus, it showed up! Success. I am very happy now. |
Whoops. I totally misunderstood the problem, throw! Sorry about that, and ignore this. :)

EdnaMode,
if you didn't get it to work, contact the Omni support ninjas either via Help->Send Feedback in the app, or call 1-800-315-OMNI or +1-206-523-4152 between 10am and 5pm PDT. |
Thank you - the terminal commands totally worked for me EXCEPT - when I sort on the field, it doesn't factor in the start time on the Sort - just date.
Suggestions? |
All times are GMT -8. The time now is 01:34 PM. |
