Tasks Panel: Focus In / Out
When the Tasks panel is open, these outliner shortcuts let you zoom into and out of subtrees:
| Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
| ⌘⌥→ / CtrlAlt→ | Focus into task’s subtree |
| ⌘⌥← / CtrlAlt← | Focus out to parent |
You can also click the breadcrumb links above the outliner to navigate directly to any ancestor level.
See Task Outliner Shortcuts for the full outliner keyboard reference.
Tips
- Panel management: Toggle panels as needed to focus on what matters. Pin panels to keep them visible.
- Complete + followup: Use > to mark a task done and immediately create a followup task, ensuring nothing drops through the cracks.
- Waiting for: Mark tasks you’re blocked on with w to keep your @today list actionable.
- Focus In: When working on a complex project, use Focus In to scope the Tasks panel to just the subtasks that matter right now.
