![]() I use OmniOutliner for keeping track of blog posts to write because I sometimes immediately flesh out the topics a bit and OmniFocus isn’t as good for that as OmniOutliner is. The action is in one of my OmniOutliner blogging “plan” files. I’ve written an action to write a blog post on this topic. There’s a footnote about that in my first book, Cognitive Productivity: Using Knowledge to Become Profoundly Effective.) One of the GTD principles I do use is to get tasks out of my head and documented asap. I use some GTD principles but not all of them (and I am quite OK with that -GTD does not suite my needs. ![]() My use of OmniFocus, OmniOutliner and nvALT for TODO’s is described in Cognitive Productivity with macOS®: 7 Principles for Getting Smarter with Knowledge. (Hook is also meant to enable that rule, along with other apps, like launchers.) Having lots of windows open allows me to implement the “2-second rule” I discuss in both my Cognitive Productivity books. Other users don’t seem to have the same problem. (But I’ve found OmniFocus 3 to be sluggish compared to OF2. I name my OmniFocus perspectives such that I can very quickly navigate to a window. Getting Things Done Better The Redesigned OmniFocus 2 for Mac. In OmniFocus, I have > 3,000 projects and > 15,500 actions (and I use other apps, per below). Furthermore, if grammar is what is preventing you from writing your blog, all I can say is. It’s partly because I am leading team projects at 3 different organizations (CogSci Apps, Simon Fraser University, and CogZest), and collaborating on other projects at them. There may be a way to achieve what I describe with OmniFocus’s scripting API, but it would be slower than if OmniGroup implemented it in in OmniFocus in Objective-C, which is what I think they should do. But I think it achieves something similar. ![]() NB: the above is not exactly what you asked for. Will do.Īnyone who agrees with my proposal could start a thread with OmniGroup or request the same of them. ![]() (I often have over 20 OmniFocus window open.) I’ve been using Hook internally at CogSci Apps for over two years and been wanting this from OmniGroup from the beginning, but had not asked them. That would be particularly helpful for power users (like myself) who often have many windows open, each on its own perspective. If OmniFocus can find the target, it should bring it to the foreground. What OmniFocus really should do is a quick look up to find a window that currently exposes the target task or project. Currently, when you active an OmniFocus:// link, OmniFocus modifies the frontmost window. We’ll be getting in touch with OmniGroup to ask them for a feature that would make their existing linking more useful, and provide benefit to Hook users. ![]()
