Table viewPRO

The Table view (available on computer with Pro Mode) shows items in a table, one row per task. Turn it on with the Table button, next to List and Control Centre.

Columns of your choice

In the Columns button you choose what appears: Section, Note, Label, Assignee, Steps, Start, Date, Time, Recurrence, Status, Status since, Reminder and Link. The Title is always visible. Widths can be adjusted and your choice is saved per list.

Sort, filter and edit

• Sort — click a column header (arrows ▲▼).
• Filter — the magnifier in each column opens its own filter.
• Edit in place — click a cell (section, label, assignee, date, status, note…) to change it right there.
• Add — the last row lets you type a new item and press Enter.

Export

You can export the table data (visible columns) to CSV or Excel. The export respects the active filters.

Import from a spreadsheet

The Import button brings tasks in from an .xlsx, .xls or .csv file — handy when the plan already exists somewhere else. If the list is still empty, the button shows right in the middle of the screen.

1. 1Download the template offered in the window: it comes with an example row showing the format of each field.
2. 2Fill in one row per task. Only the Title is required; leave the rest blank or delete the columns you do not use.
3. 3Choose the file and check what is coming in — the window tells you how many tasks it found.
4. 4Read the warnings, if any: they tell you what wasn’t recognised (a label, an assignee, a badly written date) and will be left blank. You still have time to fix the sheet.
5. 5Press Import.

• Sections that do not exist yet are created; existing ones are reused.
• Label, Assignee and Status are matched by the name they have in this list. A value that does not exist is skipped, and the task still comes in.
• Steps go in a single cell, separated by semicolons.
• Rows with no title are skipped, and so are columns Totil does not recognise — the window tells you about both.
