Task flow view in plans

You can now manage plan tasks by using the task flow view.

On the Plan tasks tab, you can switch between the task list view and the task flow view .

In the task flow view, you can create tasks and define task dependencies. When you create a task in this view, the task is shown in the Tasks pane. To define the task dependencies in this view, drag the tasks from the Tasks pane to the Task flow pane. Then, hover the cursor over the task rectangle until you see a dot in the rectangle sides. Starting from the dot, draw a line toward the dependent task, linking the two tasks. A visual task flow diagram is created. You can rearrange the position of the tasks in the diagram. The diagram is saved when you save the plan.

The changes in the task flow view are reflected in the task list view, and the opposite.
