Editing a Task

To open and edit an already-created task, you can perform one of the following actions:

  • Select the task in the Task Browser and double-click it or press Enter.

  • Right-click the task in the Task Browser, and select Edit from the context menu.

  • Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+E to open a selected task from the Task Browser.

Enter a task description and content in the Task Editor window. You can paste links, add tags (start with the “@” sign), and add subtasks (start with a dash “-”) inside the Task Editor. You can also add a detailed description with subheadings. Type # Subheading to create a new subheading in the description. See the Subtasks and Tags sections for more details about the syntax.

Remember that you do not need to save changes that you make to a task as GTG does that automatically while you write.
