Disappearing Actions
 

hi all
Wondering if anyone can replicate or explain this.
I changd the Due Date and Sart Date for an action to a day next week and gave it a Duraiton of 1 hour.
On sync with iCal it deleted the Task form iCal.
Taking out the Start Date it puts it back.
Anyone explain what's ahppening here ?
Kind Regards
Eric

When the start date is in the future, the action is not synced to iCal until that day arrives. This is the expected behavior. If you are not to focus on the action until the start date (which is the intention of "start date"), then you don't want it to populate iCal with things you shouldn't be focusing on.

Thanks Pierre
Make sense when you say it like that.
I'm used to planning To Dos ahead.
Down side of this behaviour is that future stuff doesn't make it to my phone which I use when I'm out.
But at least it's expected behaviour
Kind Regards

You can synchronize future actions to your calendar by checking the "Add blocked actions to calendars" setting in Synchronization Preferences. (The default is to only synchronize actions that are currently available.)

Thanks Ken. I wondered what blocked meant.
I think OmniiFocus is an app I'm going to like using.
