No way to filter works' global view by closed date

I checked and it works ffne.

1) check that your activities have correct closed date

2) if you closed also parent project, take care that this defined some "archiving" mode.
When a project is closed, it is considered as "archived" and so you won't see closed activities for this project.
Only way to see them, is to enter the "archive mode", that you can activite through the Project Selector parameter button.
