Using Contexts

Contexts (formerly called Views) in voo2do are groups of projects and tasks. You can use contexts to:

• separate out your projects for home and work
• divide tasks for different teams or clients
• track work for different places or moods

Each context you create will have a set of projects; tasks you create within those projects will be visible in that context automatically. You can also move a task to a specific context using the menu. Contexts apply to all the tabs in voo2do, so it's almost like having separate voo2do accounts for each context, only more flexible and easier to manage. The dashboard shows an overview of tasks organized by context, and other tabs can show one context at a time.

You may have noticed a drop-down box on the tasks, projects, notes, deadlines, and history pages:

This lets you change your currently selected view. When a view is selected, you see only the projects in that view. If all tasks is selected, there is no filtering. If you're on the tasks page and have all tasks selected, you'll see all incomplete tasks— possibly a lot of stuff.

To create a new view, select new view... from the drop-down. First give it a name:

In the next window, select some projects to include in this view. Then click Save, and you're done. You can edit this list later by selecting the view in the drop-down and clicking customize.
