My most used perspective, by far, is a simple one I call вЂRadarвЂ™. Instead of being limited to either seeing whatвЂ™s due today/soon or viewing my tasks by list (which is how most task managers operate), perspectives in OmniFocus empower me to create custom views that filter tasks matching specific criteria. While most task managers are limited to displaying projects, tags, or upcoming tasks, OmniFocus offers all of those options but also enables me to create my own personalized views that fit the way I want to manage my tasks. I went back to OmniFocus several months ago, and as I explained on AppStories previously, the ability to create custom views that filter specific tags or projects with particular sorting criteria is my absolute favorite feature of the app. In this story, IвЂ™m going to focus on how IвЂ™ve been using perspectives to put together a custom sidebar in OmniFocus that helps me navigate my busy life and make sense of it all. You can also find other solid examples of OmniFocus usersвЂ™ custom setups around the web such as these two, which helped me better understand the power and flexibility of perspectives in OmniFocus when I was new to the app. If youвЂ™re not familiar with this functionality, I recommend checking out this excellent guide over at Learn OmniFocus alternatively, you can read The Omni GroupвЂ™s official perspective documentation here. Let me clarify upfront, however, that this article isnвЂ™t meant to be a primer on custom perspectives in OmniFocus.
