Please fix this:


In the week view, tasks are listed before appt. (In the Palm version, it's the reverse).

It makes more sense to see appts first, and task/to-dos second.

For me, with dozens of to-dos, and several appts, it's more helpful to see appts before tasks in the week view.

Thanks.

Hi mikecism,

I believe there may have been a request for this in the past however we will be sure to pass your request along. For me, I prefer tasks before appointments. I don't feel it is more helpful to see them after. I tend to overlook them if they are not first. That's just my 2 cents. I could see, however, how that might be a problem if you have many tasks as you have indicated. Personally, I use my task view exclusively for tasks so I don't even view them in week view.

I know in the pocket pc world many folks have grown accustom to programs that allow for either or. It would certainly be a nice feature for a future release. I know that you are used the palm version and many of those features will be ported over to the wm side gradually. ;)

Nancy,

Thanks...at the least, if you be nice to have a preference option for the order.

Yes, each person has thier preference on how they use the tool (that's the good thing about it, and why I have been an Agendus customer for several years.)

In the task view, tasks are the key thing (obviously), so the need for appt is minimal.

In the week view (which I use almost exclusively), I need appt and tasks. Generally speaking, appts are more "important" than to-do's/task (see the layout/workflow of Franklin Planners, etc.), so they should come first.

Anyway, thanks again for the response. Maybe I'll get lucky and see it on the enhancement list in a future release.

Sure, No problem. I am not the developers but I would guess that this request could be seen in future versions. I think that if it is a feature that already exists on the palm side you have a good chance. :)
