Thank you for trying out GTG :-)

In the task description (this window), if you begin a line with "-", it will be considered as a "subtask", something that needs to be done in order to accomplish your task. Just try to write "- test subtask" on the next line and press enter.

You can also use the "insert subtask" button.

Tasks and subtasks can be re-organized by drag-n-drop in the tasks list.

Some concepts come with subtasks: for example, a subtask's due date can never be after its parent's due date.

Also, marking a parent as done will mark all the subtasks as done.

A tag is a simple word that begins with "@".

Try to type a word beginning with @ here:

It becomes yellow, it's a tag.

Tags are useful to sort your tasks. In the view menu, you can enable a sidebar which displays all the tags you are using so you can easily see tasks assigned to a given tag. There's no limit to the number of tags a task can have.

You can drag-n-drop a tag onto another to create "subtags". As an example, if you drag the tag @to_pay onto the tag @money, every task tagged with @to_pay will also appear in the view of @money (but the @money tag is not added to the task).

If you right click on a tag in the sidebar you can also set its color. It will allow you to have a more colorful list of tasks, if you want it that way.

A new tag is only added to the current task. There's no recursion and the tag is not applied to subtasks. But when you create a new subtask, this subtask will inherit the tags of its parent as a good primary default (it will also be the case if you add a tag to a parent just after creating a subtask). Of course, you can modify at any time the tags of this particular subtask. It will never be changed by the parent.

234.

If you press the "Workview" button, only actionable tasks will be displayed.

What is an actionable task? It's a task you can do directly, right now.

It's a task that is already "start-able", i.e. the start date is already over.

It's a task that doesn't have open subtasks, i.e. you can do the task itself directly.

Thus, the workview will only show you tasks you should do right now.

If you use tags, you can right click on a tag in the sidebar and choose to hide tasks assigned to this particular tag in the workview. It's very useful if you have a tag like "someday" that you use for tasks you would like to do but are not particularly urgent.

GTG is still very alpha software. We like it and use it everyday but you will encounter some bugs.

Please, report them on our Launchpad page:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/gtg

We need you to make this software better. Any contribution, any idea is welcome.

If you have some trouble with GTG, we might be able to help you or to solve your problem really quickly.

Learn how to use the QuickAdd Entry

240.

The quickadd entry is the quickest way to create a new task. You can show or hide it in the View menu.

For adding a task you just have to type its title in the entry and press return. The task will be created and selected in the task browser. If a tag is selected in the tag panel, this tag is applied to the task you create.

You can also create a task with the attributes "tags", "due", and "defer" in the quickadd entry. The syntax for these attributes is:

tags:tag1,tag2,tag3
- This way you can apply as many tags as you wish using comma as separator

due:date
defer:date
- This way you can apply a due date or a defer date. date can be yyyy-mm-dd (for example 2009-04-01) or yyyymmdd (20090401) or mmdd (0401, in this case the year is implicitly the current one) or today or tomorrow or a weekday name (due:monday means due next Monday)

Attributes which are added in this way apply but do not appear in the title.

If a word begins with @, it is interpreted as a tag.
