Displaying Tasks

R

I'm having difficulty getting tasks to display the way I want them. Is it
possible to display Tasks by date and alphabetized at the same time? As far
as I can tell, it's one or the other.

Personally, I sort by Due Date, but you could probably make custom views for
each date and sort by Task which is alphabetical.

Toggle the Task Views to see what you can do with custom views.

What I want to do is sort by due date, then sort the tasks alphabetically
within those due dates. In other words, I want all the tasks for January 7
lined up, then January 8 and so on. Within the specific days, I want the
tasks organized alphabetically. This is doable if you have a one-day range,
say, tasks that are due today. Go beyond that and I don't see that it's
possible; it's either sort by date or sort alphabetically. I can't see that
the custom views solve the problem.
Best,
R.

I don't think what you want to do is possible. It's not a feature that's
ever been requested AFAIK.
