Display set default in project tab

This thread is similar in content, but the ideas are different.

It would also be nice to have this feature on the My tasks page to be able to quickly switch between different views. For example, I frequently need to flip between my current tasks and completed tasks. But how I need to view that information is very different, requiring me to change the Filter, Group by, and Sort options each time I switch back and forth. Being able to save the Filter, Group…

Hi, @Bastien_Siebman

Yes, I understand that.

Personally, I tend to look at tasks in projects more often than I do in My Tasks.  
So maybe because I’m used to using the default tabs in projects, when I click on My Tasks it feels strange that the same tab (for example, List) doesn’t always open.

So I requested a default setting for My Tasks as well.

If I can make you change your mind and work from My Tasks, potentially your whole perspective on things could change 🙂 just a sidetone, I am intense about My Tasks
