I completed a project with over 10 task this morning. Let me say this in a more correct GTD way. I completed the last task of a Project this morning. :-)

I marked the project complete and I got a pop up box that said "Incomplete Project task will be marked as Cancelled"

This is when I noticed that my Project is showing 3 items that are left to do but there are none.

Here is a screenshot

    I went ahead and selected OK on on the dialog box that shows up and this is what I see now.

    I did not know we had strike outs in Nirvana

    you do now. ;-) alt-click to cancel (vs complete) an item.

    you know, in case you want to keep record of the fact that something was intentionally not done. i use it a lot on projects, where i like to see a running list of what was done when, and what was cancelled... and the "done" sub-group always sorts by timestamp, which is handy.

    note: if you drag an incomplete item to the logbook it will be also be marked as cancelled (with the timestamp being the moment you dragged it into logbook).

    Oooh, good to know. I was just wondering how to do that today. I had created a {z_DROPPED} tag which was a very kludgy way to implement.

    I reported this already.

    This makes sense if you actually cancelled a task - but the same happens if you had dragged it to trash, which i dont agree with - trash is trash, gone.
