First Steps With TaskQuark¶
The TO DO project¶
Once you have completed the registration process, you will find a first project called “TO DO” in the project list at the sidebar. This project is the default project. Any tasks or notes with no specific project assigned will be assigned to this project. See Working with Projects
Tip
As you create your own projects and subprojects, you can keep this TODO project and use it as a simple Todo list.
The WELCOME project¶
You will also find in the project list a project named “WELCOME”. This project is a sample project that you can use to learn how to use TaskQuark. Review the tasks in this project to practice creating tasks and notes.
Tip
You can delete these tasks or the whole project whenever you want.
Using the “pads”¶
To work with your tasks, you will need to use the different TaskQuark pads, namely:
the TodoPad, to work on your daily Agenda and your ToDo list,
the WeekPad, to see the tasks scheduled for any week,
the MonthPad, to watch the task events occuring on any month,
the WorkPad, to manage the state of the tasks for your projects,
You can also work with your notes using the NotePad, and create and organize new projects with the Projectpad on the sidebar.
