Hi Carsten,
Would this filter be something that would = be done on the source end? If so, would you consider adding it? :)

Thanks = mucho,

But



Also if it'd be possible to sort the column view = based on that column's contents it'd be great. That way, all the tasks = will be sorted based on the time of the day that the task has been = scheduled for. I guess I'm trying to use the column view similar to the = time grid.

This does not make sense becaue column view still uses the outline = structure of your file.  Why don't you just use the agenda or a = timeline view for this?
