I recently bought my copy of Agendus for my TungstenT.

When I'm using Lotus Notes on my PC I appreciate the possibility to have 2 dates on my ToDo's - Starting date and completion date.

In Agendus my problem is when I register many ToDo's (follow up todo's) the whole list is becoming unstructured because Todo's with completion dates 6mnd's into the future is showing up just beside the ones I plan to complete tomorrow.

Wouldn't it be nice to have a starting date on todo's who could control when the todos show up in Agendus - ie 6days ahead of completion deadline, or a preference setting to control that dated todo's should show up i todo's view x-days ahead of completion date. It would definately clean up the todo view!

Maybe this feature is implemented already, and I don't know how to use it...........?

Else - take it as a suggestion for further development of the product!

Wow.... fiftyone people read your post and left you dangle. Guess you could read the f* manual, or go to Options/Preferences/Todo Settings/Future Items/ and select None. That way only Todos which are due on the selected day will show. Good Luck.

Thanks....

I still want to keep up my proposal for a starting date on ToDo's for future releases. This would make it possible to customize the show up date individually for each task....

This works, sort of - the ToDo doesn't appear untill the day you have set, which is good, but then it dissapears on the next day, which is not good.

If you haven't checked a ToDo as completed it should stay on your list everyday after the day that it first appears. It's no good to have unchecked ToDo's dissappearing from sight when they haven't yet been done.

Rockyroad,
You are checking it by looking ahead. Past date a todo or just leave one undone and wait a day, and you'll see the todo (marked as overdue) Good luck.
