Task 1

Task 3

Task 3 is dependant on task 2 being complete and cannot be started until this is true
Task 2 is dependant on task 1 being complete and cannot be started until this is true
I'm not sure what you call this, but UR does not provide a method for defining a "conditional event".

What I want to hide Task 2 until Task 1 is complete and hide task 3 until task 2 is complete. This way I only get to see what can be done, one task at a time.
Also you can't hide Items.

About the best you can do is base the your Task Item on the Task Template (or a user created Template derived from the Task Template - then use the (Item) is (Template Name) search expression) - and use the Flag Attribute (Completed -red check).

In Tools | Options | Trees - Appearance, select Show Item Flag Icon in Tree (requires restart).

Otherwise, you could Search on the Flag Attribute for a given value (flag), restrict the search to a named folder, and Template.

See attached file (screen - Wokflow Flag.zip) for some screens that illustrate this.

If I've misunderstood we can try again.
