My Views
Choose the area of this screen on which you want help:
The main area of the My Views page lists each of the views you have created,
and lets you perform a number interact with them in different ways:
- Customize
- This button takes you to the page where you can customize the chosen view.
You can change the name, the description, the number and placement of the
lists in the view, and what each list shows.
- Delete
- If you no longer want this particular view, clicking delete will throw it
away for you.
- The view's name and description
- These are here so that you can see which views are which, and what all
their names are. The name of the view is also a link which will display that
particular view.
And below the list of views, there's a link to the "Create
a view" page so that you can add a new view.
Linkbar
The linkbar across the top and bottom of each screen is there to help you
navigate around tedium. A few of the links are always shown, but most
of them are ones that you choose. To change which links are displayed, you
need to go to the customize the linkbar
page, which you can find linked from the My Settings page.
From left to right, the links on the linkbar are as follows:
- tedium logo
- As well as making the top-left corner of the page look pretty, clicking
on this will take you back to the Welcome page that you first see when you
sign into tedium
- All tasks
- Does what it says on the tin. Takes you to the list of all of your
uncompleted tasks.
- Due lists
- If you've chosen to show some of the "due" lists in the linkbar, then
they'll be displayed here. These are links which show you the tasks that are
due today, or by tomorrow, or this week, or next month, or...
- Tag lists
- This section lets you jump to the list of tasks tagged with one of the
tags you've chosen. Set it up to show the tags you use the most, so that you
can quickly get to see what needs to be done for those tags.
- Views
- If you're getting into the more advanced parts of tedium, you'll
probably have started creating special views to show you more than one list
of tasks at a time. If you want them to only ever be one-click away, then
configure the linkbar to show them here.
- My Tags
- This link takes you to where you can manage your tags. It will let you
see all the tags you've defined, and how many tasks there are which are tagged
with each tag. Plus you can change the name of any of the tags, and delete
any tags which no longer have any associated tasks (but only if you don't
want them anymore - tedium doesn't care how many tags you have!)
- My Views
- This link takes you to a list of all the views you've created, and also
where you can create new ones
- My Reports
- This link takes you to a list where you can see all of your reports and
change their settings.
- My Settings
- This link will take you to the settings page. From there, you can
customize the linkbar, and change your email address, timezone or
password.
- Help
- Clicking "Help" will open a new window and show you the help page that
goes with whatever page you're viewing at the time. From there you can
also browse round the rest of the help pages, and tutorials.
- Logout
- This link will, surprise, surprise, log you out of tedium. Use
it when you're done using tedium and don't want anyone else using
the computer to be able to see your tasks.
