Task Marker ( )

Task markers designate items that have tasks assigned to them. Tasks generally refer to something specific needing to be done for the item bearing this symbol.  Tasks and their corresponding (modifiable) description texts can be viewed in the Task List window of the Miscellaneous bar.    Double-clicking on a task entry in the Task List window will move the focus to that specific item in the Text Table view.  Toggle the status of the marker (blue = to do, white = done) by checking/unchecking the checkbox next to the item.

Figure: Task markers in the Miscellaneous bar's Task List window.  The second item has been selected for editing the task's description text.

Task markers can be added to/removed from an item by clicking on the Task Marker toolbar button (Item State toolbar) or by selecting the Task Marker command from the Edit menu.
