Screen clip shows a group-by-priority Pane, with some filters applied. Note that it is a LIST pane.
Some of the items in the priority-1 and -2 groups are under parents. If those parents have !dates assigned, the child-items won’t appear in this Pane.
I would be okay with this in an OUTLINE based Pane – it’s the quasi-inheriting behavior that I don’t love but has some value and has always been consistent. But isn’t a LIST pane precisely supposed to not have that behavior? Only items which, themselves, match the filters get displayed regardless of the hierarchy?
