User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:33.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/33.0 Build ID: 20141013195847 Steps to reproduce: Install the Lightning add-on, add a CalDAV calendar. Add a diary entry and add a task. Go to Calendar view, deselect calendar, go to Task view and Tasks have disappeared. Reverse is also true Actual results: Calendar items disappeared from view (correct), tasks from same calendar also disappear. Expected results: The Select list on the tasks tab should be different to the select list on the calendar tab. I should be able to filter out tasks from other calendars, and vice versa, without having to constantly change the select list.

I really do need this enhancement to make use of the tasks in Thunderbird.
I share several calendars with colleagues, but I do not want to see their tasks. I make frequent use of their calendars, so enabling and disabling them all the time makes no sense for me.
This fills the task overview so much I can't make use of it for my tasks. So I have to use calendar items or a separate list for my workflow....

Is there any workaround / add-on known?

Severity: normal → S3

I can confirm this is still an issue in v108
It is quite frustrating to have to unselect/reselect calendars/tasks every time I swtich between calendars and tasks.
Ideally the tasks view and calendar views would each remember which task lists and calendars were enabled/hidden.
