Filter by Date?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Perhaps this is possible with some sort of "Advanced Search" but I'm not smart 
enough to know how 
to do it.  I would like to be able to limit the tasks in my milkthecow widget 
to those within the next 
week (or month) as well as those with no date.  Right now, I get a dump of all 
my tasks, even if one 
is only due in a few months.  Sorry if this functionality is already built in.

Try "dueBefore" or "dueWithin" for now. See if you can get that to work.

Thanks for the link.  I was able to achieve my desired behaviour with:

status:incomplete AND (dueWithin:"1 week of today" OR due:never)

If I enter that advanced search string mentioned above and click "Done" I get 
the tasks that I want.  However, if I 
click the "i" icon to go back to the settings and then click done, the advanced 
search string gets overwritten.  Is 
there any way to prevent it from "re-setting" when a user returns to the 
settings dialogue?

Yeah, that was a bug in 0.6.2
It has since been fixed in the repository, and will be included in the next 
release.
