Discarding tasks, instead of checking them off?

Question:
Is there a way to mark a task as discarded? I'd like to do this, instead of checking off tasks, for tasks that can't be completed for one reason or another. I don't want to completely delete the task, because that loses information. For similar reasons, I don't want to "cheat" and check off a task that was not successfully completed in real life. Ideally, this "Discard" option, would retire a task from the importance list, similarly to checking it off, but without actually checking it off. A filter option "Show Discarded Tasks" would work similarly to the existing Show Completed Tasks. Thanks for reading this! Josh |

You could change its Status to Cancelled. That would keep it hidden if the Hide Deferred Tasks filter is on. You could also give it a -1 Priority if you use that filter. That would allow you to keep Cancelled tasks hidden, but see other types of Deferred tasks.

I didn't know there was a Status field. How do you edit this, from the Web page? The only fields I see there are the text, the checkbox, Folder, Repeat, Due Date, and Priority.
