Thank you for quick answer.
Skoach would be the next app and anyway it is not good for my purposes.
I try to keep everything as simple as possible, in compliance with knowing my needs, possibilities, habits, etc. I use a lot the alert reminder feature in iCal. Also, approach of the user "sriggs" is exactly what I need.
The concrete example:
I know I have to make an interview with a person. I typed it one day to the Inbox in OmniFocus (OF). Later I moved it to my Single-Action List (S-AL), called "To Do - Urgent," even if I knew the interview will be scheduled no sooner than 4 weeks. I placed it to the context called "Important," where are only things with the highest importance. I see the interview meeting in the S-AL, flagged, between other events (not all flagged). 2 weeks later I called and scheduled the interview for the April 5th, 9:00 AM. After the phone I know the interview should not take longer than 2 hours. I typed the information in OF. There is 2 more weeks to the meeting. I know I have to prepare the equipment, questions, prepare myself and necessary things, but some of these things I have to do exactly day before the interview. I can add all the actions as "Childs" (⌘}) - sub-actions. There is more then 1 action. Today, April 4th, I will be at home at 7.00 PM, which I see in iCal. I will have 4h30min, to finish my preparation and get hair cut, before I will go sleep. It is easy to see it for me in iCal, because I placed the events at approximate time, for approximate time, and I see that driving will take me that much time. It is very comfortable when you see everything. So I know I have 2 hours to prepare things for the meeting, excluding haircut, which is perfect.
It is inconvenient to me that I have to remember the events from OF, then type them down to iCal, because not all the data I can copy and paste. Typing the same thing twice is a wasting of time. I prefer to keep the list of actions in OF and sync with iCal when I will have all the necessary data to schedule complete.
In addition, each action has its specific date, time, duration, which OF sorts the way I can choose, see and control. But, if the data is incomplete I cannot schedule an event.
Somebody can write, "why you won't make a project?" Well, that would not change anything. Second, it is kind of a project, but not exactly. For example, I need to drive to BestBuy to buy a cable for somebody, on my drive back from school. But I know, I can buy a new SD card for the interview or at least check the price, because maybe it would be cheaper online. If it is cheaper online, I will just change the context to "Mac: Online" and deal with it later, when I deal with all that context actions. Simpler for me and I have a full control. I spend less time to organizing and I don't have to drive 2 times to BestBuy. If I would be focused on the interview as a project, probably I would not remember to step by to BestBuy. For somebody it would be easier to do the opposite way, but everybody has their own workflow and different habits.
So what I need when I have not so important "project" which is very important to me, but it does not affect my carrier if I would screwed it up:
-ability co quickly view things which I need to do, which data is incomplete (OmniFocus gives me that)
-ability to schedule some of the actions with complete data into events in iCal (I need to type it manually)
-ability to type a location. Not in every case, but OF does not support it. Not a big deal for me, since I will type it only one time in iCal. But, it would be helpful, because sometimes I write that info in the Note option and then copy to iCal as a location.
Sorry for so long text, but I cannot explain shorter. If there is any language mistakes, sorry. English is my 2nd language.
If there is no way to do in automatically, I will still do it by hand. It is just too time consuming.
The option "Sync to iCal" does not make it simpler for me, because it adds all the actions from particular context as Reminders in iCal.
May the organization be with you,
