Calendar View Sort

[#1]

Since upgrade from ACT! v6 to ACT! Pro 2011 (now running ACT! Pro 2012), I really miss the sort order of activities listed in the Calendar view - the list that appear below the mini calendar on the Calendar View to the right of the Daily, Work Week, Weekly or Month calendar block.

The issue is untimed activities appear first followed by the timed event – there’s no option to sort the activities. It would be preferable to have the timed activities appear first at the top of the list (as it did in ACT! v6) so you don’t need to scroll to the bottom of the list to view the timed events for the selected day.

With To-Dos and Tasks set to roll over daily, ACT! rolls over activities as untimed, thereby making this activities list quiet long unless you reassign date/time for these rolled over activities, which I don’t do.

I’m aware this matter has been expressed in the past. However, I’m hopeful we can get some renewed interest and expressions from the ACT! Community for improvement.

I have to agree 100% with ptrombetta above:

"The issue is untimed activities appear first followed by the timed event – there’s no option to sort the activities.

In my previous version of ACT 6.0, it was a convenient way to PRIORITIZE an important call!!  Simply tag a time to the call or the to-do and on the right side in the calendar view tab, it was on TOP of all my activities.

I would also agree with ptrombetta that if a call or a to-do roll overs with a scheduled time, it would be nice to have the time roll over too.

Bottom line is how can a "timeless" activity sort above a scheduled activity with a time? 

Come on Sage, make the change!!

It's time to revisit this shortcoming in ACT! and get the calendar view sort in the next issue.
