Smart list attribute Inheritance

whalford says:


I have a smart list defined for :

Searched for: (dueBefore:tomorrow or due:never) and priority:1 and NOT(list: Personal) and NOT(list: Shopping) and not(tag: waiting)

However when I create a new task it doesn't inherit the Priority 1 attribute that I think it should

any ideas?

Thanks

andrewski (Remember The Milk) says:
The problem happens because of the OR in (dueBefore:tomorrow or due:never), even though those are encapsulated within parentheses and all tasks in your search should have priority:1. Using NOT will also cause it not to work (thus why I used a shorter example above).

The only workaround I can think of is to limit your search, e.g. dueBefore:tomorrow AND priority:1. Unfortunately that's what the system currently supports.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you need any help coming up with another workaround.
