Use / commands when adding a task

Set priority, due date, people and attachments while you type a task.

While you type a new task, type / to open a list of commands. You can use several in one line.

  1. Type the task name.
  2. Type / and pick a command, or keep typing its name.
  3. Press Enter to add the task.

The commands

  • /high, /medium (or /med), /low: set the priority.
  • /due: pick Today, Tomorrow, In 3 days or Next week, or type a date such as "sep 12" or "in 5 days".
  • /paper and /doc: attach a paper or a document.
  • /member and /lead, followed by a name: add a member or set the lead.
  • /goal: create a goal instead of a task.

If a name matches more than one person, nobody is added; type more of the name. Goals accept /due, /member and /lead.
