I tried it in the Pro version, but I don't see why this would be a Pro-only feature.
[robg adds: This works in the standard version, too. Just make sure you use the contextual menu to set the column type to Date.]

If one of your columns is set to Date format in Omni Outliner 3, typing "next week," "last wednesday," etc., will enter the actual real date, in the format specified in your preferences. This is great for making to do lists

Use relative dates in OmniOutliner 3
Nice -- this works in OmniOutliner 2.2.6 as well.

Yes, I had noticed this in earlier 2.x versions of OO as well -- didn't think of submitting it as a hint.
Use relative dates in OmniOutliner 3
This works in a lot of apps! I wrote a small app in Cocoa that kept track of dates, and when I would type things like "next Monday" it would fill in the correct date. I've been assuming that Cocoa apps get this behavior for free, but that is just an assumption.

Use relative dates in OmniOutliner 3
(perhaps subjective, but ...) what do you guys think of OmniOutliner 2 vs. 3 ... worth the upgrade?
Use relative dates in OmniOutliner 3
I think it seems nicer. I haven't explored all the new features yet, but the interface seems a little crisper, it will show you where page widths are delimited, and I like the inline notes. Supposedly the styles interface is easier (and it looks that way at a glance, but I haven't used it yet). I'm using the standard edition, it seems like it's worth the $20 to upgrade.

Download the trial version and you can decide for yourself...
Use relative dates in OmniOutliner 3
I was hesitant about the upgrade. I thought v3 looked a bit too busy and lacked the elegant simplicity of v2. But then I discovered that by turning off or disabling or hiding most of the new features, the interface is as clean as it was before. |
