Scheduling & staffing · Schedule
Task details
The side panel for one task: flags, color, assignees, tags, notes, progress and its change history.
Click a task in any view to open Task details on the right. Click ✕ or press Esc to close it.
Task actions #
The row of buttons at the top of the panel:
- Move up and Move down: change the row order. Dates don't move.
- Hide: hides the task from the views. It still schedules and still pushes the tasks that depend on it. The Hidden chip in the filter bar shows hidden tasks again.
- Delete: asks first. Undo brings it back.
- T (temporary): marks a stand-in, like a placeholder date or an interim step. The name turns italic with a circled T. Scheduling doesn't change.
- Star: marks what matters. A starred task is bold, ringed and a little brighter. You can also click the star next to a task's name in the Gantt or table.
- Duplicate: a copy with the same group, dates and dependencies lands just below.
Color and outline #
- Color: pick a bar color, or ⌀ for the default (blue for a task, red for a milestone).
- Outline: a ring inside the bar, in one of the colors or a contrast color that is dark in light themes and light in dark ones. Use it to tell two same-color bars apart.
Assignees, tags and notes #
- Assignees: names, separated by commas.
- Tags: labels to filter by, like a building or a discipline, separated by commas. Tags aren't case-sensitive: "Admin" and "admin" are the same tag. See Views and filters.
- Notes: free text.
- Name and Group are here too. See Groups and codes.
Progress #
Progress records status. It never moves a date.
- Done: tick when the task is finished. Done tasks show filled in, and done milestones show a check. Hide done in the filter bar hides them.
- The slider sets the percent complete. The done share of the bar fills in.
- Actual: the dates it really started and finished. They're a record next to the plan, not constraints, so a late finish doesn't push anything.
To change the plan itself, edit the start, the duration or the dependencies.
The table has a Done / % column, and an Actual column you can turn on under Columns.
History #
History lists recent changes to this task, with when and who. Changes made by an AI assistant through the AI connector carry an AI badge with the app's name.
