Press Select project to see an overlaid list of all available projects on the Authoring Platform. Pick one from the list by moving the cursor to its title and pressing it, or using the keyboard up-arrow / down-arrow buttons to scroll the list and then press Enter on the desired selection .

Enter some further descriptive text in Task Details and use the text formatting options menu to enhance readability if desired (select some text within the field, then press the desired option button in the menu). This field is optional and can be left blank but some additional background information on the task can often be useful, particularly if many tasks end up with similar titles.

  • Task title field (required).
  • Select project drop-down list selector (required).
  • Task Details optional multi-line rich text field, with a sub-menu for formatting selected contents as bold font, italic font, button list, and numbered sequential list.
