Bug report: dueBefore x hours of now
mcipold says:
Hello there,
in the last days I tried to reorganize my tasks and add a feature to hide tasks until a special time before they are due. On day level this worked fine but I realized that I need a more detailed model (I do not want to see all tasks I will have to do in the evening already in the morning) and so I decided to use the search for "dueBefore:4 hours of now" (4 is just an example).
I could see then that dueBefore is working fine until the moment you cross midnight with the hours. For example: now it is 15:30. I have a task due on 22:00. Searching for dueBefore:"6 hours of now" does not show the tasks because it is not yet 16:00. Searching for dueBefore:"7 hours of now" or dueBefore:"8 hours of now" does show the task as I expect it to be. But then if I type dueBefore:"9 hours of now" the task will not be shown in the result list.
I think this is a bug because everytime I cross midnight with the "x hours of now" tasks with detailed due date won't be shown. Tasks with due date today "without hours" will be shown.
I hope you understand my problem!
