What Is Project Formatting?
Every project is a collection of tasks. A task is just like a bullet point in the traditional sense. You can use the power of outlining to break down tasks into sub-tasks and style them according to your liking. Here's how to do that on Mac, Windows, and Linux.
Format Tasks and Sub-Tasks
Taskade lets you turn your tasks into a checklist, heading, ordered list, or paragraph. There are also several bullet point styles you can choose from.
To format a task/sub-task:
Select the task/sub-task you want to format
โClick the drag icon (โฎโฎ) to the left of your task
โClick the first item on the list and select a format from the drop-down list
You can also Type "/" followed by the desired format, .e.g "paragraph".
Drag to Reorder
You can reorder blocks of tasks/sub-tasks using the drag icon (โฎโฎ) to the left of a top-level task. Use the drag & drop feature to quickly reorganize your lists.
โ
Highlight and Style
Select a task or text, click the three dots (ยทยทยท) next to the task, and select A
You can also use a โจ๏ธ โ + E (Mac) or CTRL + E (PC) shortcut
โAlternatively, type "/" followed by a color, e.g. "red"
To remove a highlight, select a color again or keep pressing โจ๏ธ โ/Ctrl + E.
Multi-Select Formatting
Need to format tasks in bulk? Highlight multiple tasks or lines of text with the mouse cursor and format them using one of the options from the previous section.
โ
Add-Ons Menu
Take your tasks to the next level by creating due dates, writing comments, attaching files, and assigning tasks with the Add-ons Menu. To access the Add-ons menu:
Method 1: Click the โ icon next to a task and choose an Add-on from the list.
โMethod 2: Use the โจ๏ธ "โ" + "/" keyboard shortcut and press a letter:
"D" = ๐๏ธ Due Date
โ"A" = ๐ค Assign
โ"C" = ๐ฌ Comment
โ"E" = ๐ Embed
โ"T" = โฑ๏ธ Timer
โ
Method 3: Type "/" followed by the name of the Add-on, e.g. "timer".
