Filter for predecessor tasks
When using a predecessor field for tasks in a project mgmt tool, is there any option to have a filter to only show tasks that belongs to the current project?

Best Regards, - Any updates on this request?
- Any changes to this situation. I have a need to figure out how to triage what are true active tasks and what are tasks waiting to be completed.
- Me too, this seems like such a simple fix to do. I dont see how the scheduling tool can be used with out it unless you only have one schedule.
- I need this as well. When you have multiple projects on the same table it is really difficult to find the correct predecessor task without a filter of some sort. It would need to work similarly to the dependency when working with multiple choice fields - it this field matches that field.
Just found this one post and would like to see if it has been resolved. I need this filter also.

Granted the App Predecessor button is not really useful. I find that the best way is to have the child table of Tasks on a Project record in Grid Edit mode and show the [Record ID#] as a column and just hand type the Predecessor(s) separated by commas.
Yes it's a bit of a pain but typically, you will have Template Projects with Templated Tasks, and the result of the Copy Master Detail is so powerful it's worth the hassle.

Mark,
Too bad, I was hoping maybe they fixed this after all the years since it was first discovered.
Going with your suggestion plus some help text on the page.
