After using Omnifocus for a month, I have to say I am very happy with it. However there is one feature which I find very valuable missing on all platforms (Mac & iOS). When I go thru my different projects in project-view, there is no way for me to filter by context inside a project.
Let's say for example that I am using my Omnifocus on iPad. I am going thru various different projects and folders (in project-view) and I look at my Finance single-action list. I have there 50+ different tasks inside. Suddenly I want to see how many bills do I have inside this single-action list. There is no way for me to quickly now filter by context and select @bill - inside the project. I have only option to quickly alter the 'availability' option which I hardly ever change in the project-view.
To achieve what I want, I have to first exit project-view to context-view. Then find context @bill and then I get a list from tasks from all projects with the selected context. Also in Omnifocus desktop version you can change the 'sort by' to project to get a better looking list yet in iOS versions this is not possible.
So in the future releases of Omnifocus, I really hope that Omnigroup will add 'filter by context' option in project-view. I have already sent a feature request, I just wanted to to see how other users feel about this in this forum.
