I keep track of my work through our various ticket (email) queues with a few notes under the task for each queue. This means you can create deep levels of subprojects and still edit them comfortably, instead of seeing a bunch of leading whitespace everywhere. The difference is when you focus a project like this you’ll no longer see all the leading indentation. To fold and item click the blue bullet point to the left of the items text.įocus projects – You can now truly focus projects instead of just filtering to show a single project. Two days at work alongside TaskPaper 3, and I’m digging these two features:įolding items – You can now fold items, hiding the items indented under them. I’d like the ability to designate a project for each TaskPaper file, but I imagine using a different setting for separate files would be tough to implement.Įven though I’ve gotten comfortable with Things, I’m pleased with TaskMator! If you enable the badge number, and the most recent file you opened had over 250 tasks, your mind would go numb. I’m not certain if the purpose of Taskmator is to use a one or two huge TaskPaper files. 2 Or, using two fingers-tap and hold the bottom menubar, then proceed tapping the other tasks you’d like to manage-I can add the relevant tags, then move it to the correct project. When ready to clear my “inbox” at the top of the file, and on my iPhone, I can tap each task, and move it to my desired “project”. I might create two dupes that include notes for more detail.įor adding stuff to my TaskPaper files, I have several actions in Drafts that prepends the chosen draft.įor the second and third, those are for instances where I only have a single-line draft.

All from my keyboard, loving it.) With the above syntax, that means done tasks aren’t displayed even though the notes under those tasks are technically not marked as done.Īnyway, the goal is to narrow the scope of my tasks. (In the TaskPaper app, I collapse these quickly. Same with search from the home screen, which seems fast. I’m also fiddling with saved or or and not (type = note or tasks <= <= 15 and not (type = note or the moment, I omit the notes in some saved searches because I use often include notes. This morning, I also listened to Episode 026 - Old Stock Ale and Task Management from Nerds on Draft (an episode from a year ago), which includes some discussion about TaskPaper and TaskMator.

Getting messy after four days in!ĭaily work “projects” means that the Archive projects displayed in the sidebar will be extremely long if I don’t do something. When migrating some stuff to TaskPaper, I created those two projects from Things as projects in TaskPaper-which are also shown in the sidebar. This is a hold over from an idea in my previous post, “ Things: Repeating Projects!“ 1

I’ve been using a couple of “Projects” for grouping daily work in various ticket queues: one for triaging, and the other for regular ticket smashing.
