Not sure if you're still responding to this thread, but I wanted to ask a question. Is there a way to make Loop components repeat daily or restart the same task once repeated? Specifically, the Task List Loop Component.

I've created repeating To-Do items in the My Day tool to create workflow tasks which I perform daily, but when i drag them from My Day to the Calendar, the to-do list tasks disappear when creating the Calendar Event. I want to be able to see my to do items in the calendar event from the My Day tasks, so i don't have to jump back and forth between tools. Is there a way to use the Task List Loop Component to do this? I tried creating a daily calendar event for my repeat tasks, using the Task List Loop Component. When I completed it the first day, on the next day, that task was shown as completed already. When i checked the following days, that task had been marked as completed as well. When I tried to correct this with the due date, there was no option to have the task repeat daily. Is there a work around for this?

It's been a year since Loop Components have been introduced. It seems nonsensical that this is not already apart of the tool. Does Microsoft plan to make daily loop components possible in the future if it's not possible now?


Thanks!

I’ve been using Loop to keep track of meeting notes and signing tasks. The meetings that I have been using this for our reoccurring. How can I get the tasks to copy forward to the next meeting so that we can start the meeting off reviewing tasks that are complete and still open?

Regarding the completion date, can you make a video explaining how to set a reminder to notify you when it gets close to the date in question, that an email arrives from the person who was tagged in the @ right there in the task table?

Is there a way to create a to-do list within Loop and set a rule to where when the task is completed, the task dissapears from the list?

Another useless MS task manager. Without task hierarchy, it could be used only for nail studio.
