No probs - I always wondered why there were 2 seemingly identical perspectives - and now find they're not!

So, excuse the newbieness, is it as simple as you the item doesn't appear in the flagged perspective if it already has a date attached to it, in the form of due or start etc. And that the flag you see when say in the project perspective is a separate, unrelated flag, that simply acts as a 'physical' flag to set it apart?

Thanks,

David

Welcome to the forums, David! Sorry for the confusion - it's pretty much as Marissa describes in post number 2. There are two similar views that show flagged items. The one that appears in the top level sidebar only shows items that are Flagged and Available (have no start date or one in the past, are assigned to project that's active and to a context that not in the "On Hold" state.)

The second "Flagged" view, under the "Perspectives" sidebar item, is the one that comes over when you sync OmniFocus with a Mac. That one shows you all the ones in the view I mentioned above, plus the actions that fall into those additional categories.

Same flag in both places, just different settings with regards to whether it includes unavailable actions.
