Task Edit

This dialog allows editing and deletion of a task.

Action List

• Click on an action to edit it
• Long-click on an action for options
• Click-and-drag at the right hand side of the action to move it around e.g. to the trash bin

On the right of each action is an icon stipulating whether the action is a setting or not. See here for more information.

Condition and Block Colours

If an action has had a condition set for it, the condition is shown with a red or green bar next to it; green indicates that the condition is currently met (the action will execute), red indicates the opposite. Of course, when the task is executed it could be that it changes things so that the condition is then met.

If an action is within an If / End If block it is displayed indented with a red or green margin. The colours have the same significance as for individual action conditions described above.

If an action is within a For loop it is displayed indented with a grey margin. If the For action has a condition on it which is not met, the margin will be red (because the actions in the loop will never execute, like an If / End If block).

Task Control Row

• Add Action: add an action on the end of the task.
• Task Properties: show extended properties for the task.
• Task Icon button: shows the icon associated with the task. Clicking on it allows changing of the icon.
