The Outline → Action Item menu contains commands for tracking action items in cells:
|
|
|
|
• | Add/Remove Status Checkbox - adds/removes a checkbox to/from the page’s selected cells

|
|

| Setting a Cell’s Due Date
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Choose View → Due Dates to hide or show cell due dates, and Outline → Action Item → Set Due Date to display a field for setting a cell’s due date.
|
|
|
|
| With due dates visible you can also click in the due date area next to a cell to start typing the due date ➊. This field understands words like “today” and “Friday.”
Click the calendar icon ➋ to reveal a calendar control for graphically setting the due date.
NoteBook preferences presents options for automatically setting a cell’s due date based on the due date and completion status of its child cells ➌.
|
|
|
|
| Emptying the field clears the due date. A cell does not need a checkbox to have a due date.

|
|
| Setting a Cell’s Priority
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Choose View → Priorities to hide or show cell priorities, and choose a priority setting from the Outline → Action Item menu to change a cell’s priority.
|
|
|
|
| With priorities visible you can also click and hold in the priority area next to a cell to reveal a priority menu. NoteBook tracks four priority values.
You can choose a different priority symbol style in NoteBook preferences.
