OmniFocus for iPad 1.3 updates Forecast Mode: Never spread yourself too thin. Enable Calendar integration to see your hard landscape events alongside your overdue and due soon OmniFocus actions. Use the View options menu to show your items with a start date. Reschedule your projects and actions—with just a tap or two—to keep your days balanced.

This update also includes full screen note viewing and editing, improved support for screen mirroring, and a number of other user interface and workflow improvements.

Forecast

• Forecast mode now integrates calendar events into a convenient timeline. Use the View options menu to configure which calendars appear on the timeline, and the range of hours for which events are displayed. (This feature requires iOS 4.0 or later.)
• Forecast mode now includes an additional section for viewing items starting on the days of the upcoming week. Use the View options menu to hide or show this section.
• Tapping “View” on a Due Reminder alert now takes you to the Forecast screen, showing you all items which have become overdue at once.

Editing

• The Note section of the Editor now includes an expand button. Tap on the expand button to view or edit your notes full screen.
• When searching in the Project and Context pickers, Smart Match terms are underlined in the search results.
• When assigning a Project or Context to an Action, search results are now presented in Library order rather than alphabetically.

Workflow

• The application’s badge counts the union of overdue, due soon, and flagged items. Items that are both flagged and overdue or due soon are no longer counted twice.

• Dropped Folders are only visible in the Project move popover when the current View options are set to All.

User Interface

• OmniFocus takes advantage of hardware screen mirroring when available.
• When mirroring your iPad 2 on a secondary display, OmniFocus now shows your gestures—taps, pinches, swipes, and all—so that your viewers can follow along.

• When there are no remaining Projects requiring review, the plus button no longer gives multiple choices for creating an Inbox item.

Stability

• Fixed a crash which could occur when entering the background and using Bonjour syncing.
• Fixed a rare problem which could lead to a crash if OmniFocus received a memory warning while in landscape orientation.
• Fixed a regression where Email Debug Info (to the OmniFocus support ninjas) was inappropriately using the in-app mail client.
