tkcToDo Guide
By
Margot Ross
tkcToDo is another piece of our PIM suite, but goes far beyond the normal concept of a ToDo application and approaches the realm of
project management. The fields supported within tkcToDo are the following:
- Stat/Due date
- Status
- Priority
- Percent complete
- Categories
- Comments
- Recurrence
- Reminder
tkcToDo has a highly customizable list view that also allows for sorting by column and filtering by Status/Priority/Category. You can customize
the sequence of the columns and which columns will display at all allowing you to personalize tkcToDo to fit your style. Other features include:
- Hide completed task in view
- Templates for tasks
- Differents customized colors for different categories
- Purge completed tasks
- Preview task comment
- Import from original Todo list app
- Customizable Reminders for each task
- Alarms with sound and blink the LED (customizable)
- Find task by different criteria
- Allow *quick* edit for tasks directly in list view
It is important to note that for us to be able to provide this level of functionality we had to abandon the original ToDo file format,
which means synchronization is no longer available, however we will provide a small Visual Basic application that will allow you
to get your data from Outlook to tkcToDo.
