How to Use Inline Editing

With Task Master, you can edit task items directly in the grid view, called inline editing. This feature allows you to save time while you manage your tasks because you can quickly edit task items directly from the Web Part interface without having to click to access the edit form.

4. When using inline editing in a filtered view, such as My Tasks, the tasks may not line up correctly. Refresh the browser using CTRL + F5 to resolve this issue. Doing so will refresh the page to the All Tasks view. Select the desired filtered view again.

Note: If you use inline editing to modify a task item, click Save before editing another task item using the edit form. Otherwise, Task Master will reload the page without the changes that you made using inline editing.
