Tagging Tasks

A tag is a simple word that begins with the @ sign.

When you type a word beginning with @, it is displayed with yellow highlighting, which is the indicator that GTG considers the word to be a tag. You have the option to associate tags with custom colors. Tags are displayed with any associated custom color in the Task Editor. See Editing Tag Properties for more information. You can select a tag while working in the Task Editor to view all other associated tasks in the Task Browser.

You can use tags to sort your tasks. Tags are viewable in the Sidebar. You can enable the Sidebar from the Main Menu on the Headerbar. This displays all of the tags that you have created. When a tag is selected, all tasks that are associated with that tag are displayed. A task can have an unlimited number of tags.

See the following sections for information on how to create and personalize tags.
