In this article, we will discuss how to set draft and active tasks in Plan View. When tasks are added in Plan View, they are by default in draft mode, indicated by the fact that they are grayed out. However, you have the option to manually set the task to be active or mark all tasks as active in your project.

Manually Setting a Task to Active

To manually set a task to active, follow these steps:

1. In plan view, locate the task that you want to make active. You will notice that it is currently in draft mode and grayed out. Double click on the task to open it in edit mode.
2. Toggle the button next to the task that says "Draft" to switch it to "Active". This will activate the task and make it visible in your list of tasks to do.
3. Once the task is set to active, it will no longer be grayed out and will be included in your list of tasks to complete.

Marking All Tasks as Active

Alternatively, you can mark all tasks as active in your project. This is useful if you have multiple draft tasks that you want to make active at once. Here's how you can do it:

1. In plan view, click on the "Mark All as Active" button located at the top of the page. This will activate all the draft tasks in your project.
2. Once you click on the button, all the draft tasks will be converted to active tasks and will be visible in your list of tasks to do.

Keep in mind that draft tasks won't show up in your list of tasks to do until they are active. So, it's important to make sure that you set the tasks to active if you want them to be included in your list of tasks.

Conclusion

In this article, we discussed how to set draft and active tasks in Plan View. By manually setting a task to active or marking all tasks as active, you can ensure that your tasks are included in your list of tasks to do. Remember that draft tasks won't show up in your list until they are active, so make sure to activate them when you're ready to work on them.
