Tasks

Is there a simple way of moving a task to a different place in a task list which does not require using the priority function?

RE: tasks

Hi Steven,

This was not something I had come across before but have tried it and eventually found a way of doing it. What you need to do is change the view that tasks are shown in from simple list to detailed list. Once you have done this click on the task symbol on the left and then drag it up or down. When you drag it up or down you will get a red line appear showing you where the task is going to be placed. You can then change it back to simple list of you want.

Hope this helps
Kind Regards
Martin

RE: tasks

I looked again and my list was already "detailed", but didn't allow dragging. Changing to a simple list did. I think if tasks are arranged by category it interferes with this function.

RE: tasks

Thanks Martin I will try this.
