First and foremost: Hi! Last week I decided to give OF a try because of all the praise it gets and of course because of the good impression the company (and of course its users) left behind after reading the website and the support forums.
So I bought the iPhone version and downloaded the Desktop Demo, because I simply wanted more than Appigos todo.
Last Friday I created all my projects at my Desktop and transfered them via WIFI sync over to the iPhone. Everything is OK. With the exception of a double Miscellaneous Folder on the iPhone, which I think is created on the iPhone because it does not recognize the Miscellaneous folder I created on the desktop.
But I have a real problem with the perspectives. I created one on the desktop (with all items in, in order of the due date and of course the ones without a due date, too) and synced it over to the iPhone, because I think the Perspectives are the Bred and Butter of this Tool! But now I observed that there seems to be a problem with all of my perspectives on the iPhone, because sometimes they seem to be inverted.
The sorting order of two built-in Perspectives (after Due Date and Completed) and the one I created sometimes get mixed up.
In the normal case both buil-in ones are sorted in this way the the actual date is on top. So with the one after Due date you go in to the future by scrolling down and with the Completed one you go into the past. My custom Perspective uses the same sets as the built-in (after Due Date) but expands to all task in the database. If I start the App the items in this Perspective are sorted in the way that the task which is the farthest in the future is on top and the today tasks are at the bottom (which is contrary to the view I created at the desktop, and of course inverted). But when I quit the app out of multitasking and restart it, this perspective gets sorted the right way (today on top), as is the built-in one after Due Date, but the Completed Perspective inverts to today at the bottom :confused:
What am I doing wrong? Ok I know Perspectives is beta on the iPhone.....
I hope I made my problem clear, because english is not my native language...Thanks for your help.
