Hi sapanshah83,
It's not currently possible to search for tasks with negative time periods (such as "within the last 3 days"), sorry.

Using dueBefore: and dueAfter:, you could narrow in on a specific date range using absolute dates. For example:

dueAfter:4/28/12 AND dueBefore:5/2/12

Hope that helps!

dueAfter:"-3 days" AND dueBefore:today
would be perfect, I vote for negative time!
That would also open up for smarter weekend task lists.

Thanks for the reply Brendan.

I can do it with absolute dates, but I would have to update it every day. That would defeat the purpose of smart list.

If you haven't done so already, please vote for this suggestion in our Ideas forum as well.

Thanks for your feedback!
