Screencasts Creating Project Templates in OmniFocus

by Ryan Irelan

It's Lunch with OmniFocus! Follow along with this 11 ½ minute video as we learn how to create and use project templates in OmniFocus.

In this episode we are going to talk about how to create and use project templates in OmniFocus.

Project templates are useful because often you’ll find that you are creating the same type of projects over and over again. For example, when I create a new screencast, I always do some of the same steps. But I don’t want to type all these actions out every single time. I just want to start with a template that has everything populated for me. In this video we’ll walk through the steps to make that happen.

Along with functionality available in OmniFocus, we’ll also rely on an Applescript to automate the project templates to make them easier to create.

The video comes with a complete transcript in PDF form.
