Jamie, the feature request is open in our development database, but it's got a fairly small number of customer votes attached to it. (There are other changes that folks have told us they they need more than this one, in other words.)
If folks would like to see this added to the application, please email the
support ninjas and let them know that.
In the meantime, this can be accomplished, though I'll admit the process for doing so could certainly be improved. :-)
- Quit OmniFocus
- Open <your home folder>/Library/Application Support/OmniFocus in the Finder
- Select the "OmniFocus.ofocus" (or possibly just "OmniFocus" file.
- Select File -> Duplicate from the menu bar.
- Double-click the "OmniFocus Copy.ofocus" item that is created.
- Select Perspectives -> All Items from OmniFocus' menu bar.
- In the "OmniFocus Copy" window, delete everything but the items you want to send to the coworker.
- Quit OmniFocus, zip up "OmniFocus Copy" and send it off to the coworker.
They can double-click the item to open it, copy the items into their database, then close the window and delete the file you sent.
Does that help?
