OmniFocus Default Contexts

Assuming you have been using OmniFocus for a while, here is a reason for setting default contexts for your projects. Notice, in the image above, that I have a bunch of “Media” projects where one is called “Books”. This is a catch-all for the various books I want to read. More often than not, I am reading a book when I’m at home. Therefor, my default context for my “Books” project should be the “Home” context as shown being set here:

With a default context set, any new actions that fill up in my “Inbox” will pick up the default context by using the Tab button as shown here:

(click to view)

NOTE: Using Tab completion with default contexts leaves the Inbox actions grey (as shown within the green rectangle). Those actions where I specifically selected a context will be black instead.
