The + priority level can be varied from P1 through P5 which is used for sorting + and filtering the Task List. A task can be set to complete by right clicking + and selecting "Mark Complete". The completed tasks appear in the + Task List + with light gray font to distinguish it from incomplete tasks. More detailed + information such as notes and related links can be added to the task by + double clicking on the task, which will open an editor. A task can be + activated by selecting the glasses icon in the first column, which will + initiate the monitoring feature of mylar to store the task context. The + active task and its category will appear in bold on the task list. The + context stored for each task can be cleared by right clicking the task and + selecting "Clear Task Context".</p> + <h3>Categories</h3> + <p>A category can be created to organize the Task List. If a category is + selected during task creation, the task will be added to that category. The + drag and drop feature of the Task List allows tasks and bug reports to be + moved from one category to another.</p> + <h3>Bugzilla Reports</h3> + <p>Bugzilla reports can be added to the Task List via two methods. An + existing bug report can be downloaded from a bugzilla server or a new bug + report can be created on a bugzilla server. The Task List shows the same + details for the bug report as it does with tasks, but the icons are + different. When the bug report is double clicked, the bug report will be + opened by a bugzilla editor or an internal browser, which can be toggled in + the preferences. A bugzilla report can be activated in the same manner as + tasks.</p> + <h3>Bugzilla Query</h3> + <p>A bugzilla query is a category that is made up of all bug reports that + match a specified query. When it is created, the user is presented with a + dialog that presents query options similar to the search page on the + bugzilla server. All hits form the query are added to the query and can be + used like standard bug reports.</p> + <h3>Filters</h3> + <p>Filters are available to manage the Task List. There are two filters, one + for filtering completed tasks, and one for filtering based on priorities.</p> +<table cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" width="600" id="table2"> + <tr> + <td width="30%" valign="top" align="left"> + <p align="right"><b>New context menu actions</b></p> + </td> + <td width="70%" valign="top"> + <span style="background-color: #FFFFFF">The task list now contains + actions for collapsing all nodes, navigating, and specifying + preferences for file closing behavior on task activation.</span><p> + <img border="0" src="../../org.eclipse.mylar.doc/doc/images/0.3/tasklist-actions.gif" width="264" height="185"></p> + </td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td colspan="2"> + <hr> + </td> + </tr> +</table> + +<table cellpadding="10" cellspacing="0" width="600" id="table3"> + <tr> + <td width="30%" valign="top" align="left"> + <p align="right"><b>Focus on a single task category</b></p> + </td> + <td width="70%" valign="top"> + <span style="background-color: #FFFFFF">To see only the tasks for a single category + select the "Go Into Category" action from the context menu.
