Tips and tricks
- You can copy tasks into different projects and projects into different clients by dragging and dropping.
- Right-clicking on the task plus-sign button opens a drop-down menu of all the exisiting tasks. If you want to add a task similar to an already existing task, just choose it from the drop-down menu and the name, rate/hr, description, whether it's a fixed rate and whether it's an expense.
- If you want to add a task identical to one already in use, you can use the Duplicate function (Command-D).
- When you add a project or task through the plus-sign buttons on the main window, the application will always ask you for a name for the newly created project or task. If you want to avoid that, use the menu with its corresponding keyboard shortcuts: Command-N for New Task and Command-Shift-N for New Project.
- Control-clicking on the column headers lets you resize the columns to their default size and add or remove columns.
- Checking the 'Expense' box inside the task drawer means that on some invoices/HTML templates your expense tasks will be separated from your other tasks. If you want to separate all your expenses from your tasks, you could create a whole new project and name it 'Expenses'.
