Filter Obsidian tasks by folder in frames

I want to make a frame to time-block working on my active projects. My project directory is organized as follows:

Projects/├── Active projects/│   ├── Project 1/│   └── Project 2/└── Upcoming projects/    └── Project 3/

Within a project folder (like "Project 1"), there are several notes related to the project, and several of them might include tasks.

What I would like to be able to do is to have a folder-based frame filter that so that the frame would consider all tasks from notes within any of the projects in the folder "Active projects".

      Ingmar We are looking into adjusting the frames experience but haven't settled on a solution.

    I second this request. Currently Morgen allows frames to filter by Obsidian task status, note, or tag. I have a pre-existing logic for distributing tasks across notes that doesn't map well onto how I want to organize frames, and it would be arduous to add special tags to each task individually to allow filtering by tags. However, in my use case it would be easy and convenient to accomplish frame filtering by grouping the relevant notes into a folder. Presumably it would be pretty straightforward to add this filtering option.
