Title: Case activities are not shown in activity tab but appear in the filter
ThreadText: # Case activities are not shown in activity tab but appear in the filter
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2016-11-10)
  
  In the Activity tab for a contact, case activities are not shown. I would rather they were, but I can live without that.
  
  But in the filter for including and excluding activity types from the view, the case activities appear. Surely this is a bug. Since case activities are not shown in the tab, it makes no sense to filter by them.
  
  In an organisation with a large amount of case activity types this makes the filter pretty much unusable because the list is so long and largely irrelevant.
  
  I found the offending line of code, it is line 40 in CRM/Activity/Form/ActivityFilter.php
  
  `$activityOptions = CRM_Core_PseudoConstant::activityType(TRUE, TRUE, FALSE, 'label', TRUE);`
  
  It seems to be the first parameter being set to TRUE that makes it include case activites.
  
  Should I file a bug, what do you think?

  Me too! And After a lengthy process I've had this [PR 1630](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/16360) merged into core, should be released in 5.24 I think.
  
  It adds an option (**Administer » CiviCase » CiviCase Settings**) that, if checked, will include case activities in the activities tab (and other activities listings that they were previously hidden from).
  
  I felt that not having these exposed in the normal way led to some really strange situations - like if a case activity is assigned to me, I would not be able to see it from my record at all. You may want to [read my rationale](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/16360#issuecomment-582904647) for why this option made sense.
