Displaying sub tasks

andrew.ripley says:
Hi everybody,

Is there a way for a subtask to have its parent task displayed when the sub task is due. I have a generic sub task called "Send out pre year end letter" that is common to many tasks but when the due date arrives all that's displayed is "Send out pre year end letter" instead of if the parent task was Bob T Monkey Year End Accounts and Send out pre year end letter was a subtask, the subtask was displayed as maybe Bob T Monkey Year End Accounts: Send out pre year end letter.

I hope that makes sense.

Regards

Andrew

Completely agree with this suggestion.

My perfered solution would be display in small text a breadcrumb trail of where the task comes from, starting with it's list:

work >> perform project x >> final evaluation
Send out pre year end letter

I don't like solutions where you have to click around to figure it out; this would solve it with a glance...
