In Pensiv, tasks are
not a separate checklist. A task is always
an action that comes from a specific file.

​
Where are tasks managed?

You can work with tasks in two places.

​
1) Tasks in the navigation bar

From the top navigation bar
you can open the task icon to see all tasks. There you can:
  • See the full task list
  • Group by inbox (or other groups)
  • Add tasks quickly (+)
  • Check off and change status
This is where you
manage execution for the whole project.

​
2) Tasks in the file header

In each file’s header
you can see tasks linked to that file. There you can:
  • See only tasks from this file
  • Check off and complete
  • Work on edits without losing context
So tasks
are always tied to files.

​
What tasks mean for structure

A normal to-do
only records “what to do.” In Pensiv a task
always carries where it came from.
  • An edit that came from a document
  • A follow-up from a plot card
  • A deadline for a specific scene
When you click a task
you go straight to that file.

​
Main idea

A task is not just an item to do.
It’s an action point with a place in the structure.
In the navigation bar
you see the big picture.
In the file header
you act in context. When both are in use,
tasks become more than a list —
they become the execution layer of the project.
