Add to Projects the "Showing 100 Tasks..." option next to the Filter | View | Grouping area

When most of your projects have more than 100 tasks, it would be convenient to avoid having to always scroll down a project to select the option to show more than 100 tasks. A duplicate of the option at the top of the project within the menu bar that hosts the Filters, Views, and Grouping would save time and be always within reach.

Better yet...standard screen header "frozen", which includes page/object "counter". I spend way too much time scrolling up/down to get to "header" icons/fields. I"m going to attach screen shots of something I submitted as a request a year and a half ago.

I agree we both David and Geoff.

The "All tasks" should be default because it can lead some users, especially those new to Workfront, to think that all tasks are displayed. Since task selections and filters will apply only to tasks that are displayed and not all tasks on the whole project, mistakes can easily happen.

Additionally, I think an option in the user's profile settings to activate/deactivate the ability to Display All by default could benefit everyone.

This is one option but I would rather that the default be for ALL tasks to be shown, and not have to remember the selector. Many new Users do not realise the '100' default exists, leading to frustration when tasks are not visible.

Hi - this is a great suggestion. One additional thing is, to make sure that you can see the selector within the normal screen width, without scrolling. Currently if you have columns that are wider than a normal screen, you have to scroll down to the bottom and also across to the far right to see it.
