locked activities

[hila]

Many times after I enter an activity and try to return to it after a while and modify it, it gets locked...
It disturbs me most when I try to split the activity, but the remark is that it cannot be changed.
How can I unlock (it is written to 'remove the corresponding activity' but I dont understand which activity...)

Just remove the activity you want to change and then add another one, with a different split.

If you want to change anything else than the split number, you can modify the existing activity.

Thanks. That was what I did before, but since in this generation I suddenly have several activities that I need to change their split categories I thought and hoped there is another way, more simple and elegant.

No, there is no simple way, because of a few reasons:

1) I should take care of the id of each subactivity, which is difficult. For instance, ids: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. Activity A has ids 3,4,5 and you want to split it into 4 instead of 3. Then, I should mode the other ids up.

2) I should take care of min days between activities constraints, because the ids of the activities change.

So, I preferred a simpler approach.

You could try to have a look at the .fet file and change there, manually, if you really want that.
