To move or copy within a project you have a few options. Move a task by drag and drop or using the move &amp; copy tool\u00a0available\u00a0in the task page. To move a task up and down in the task page, just grab the up &amp; down arrow to the left of a task and drag it where you want, this reorders tasks\u00a0according\u00a0to their importance. If you want to change a task level, like make a level 1 task into a level 2 subtask, then click on the inverted triangle on the right of each task. Here you can change a task level by moving or copying it to any place within a project or to another project in your workspace. This\u00a0flexibility\u00a0allows the user to rearrange his or her projects any time and with minimal effort.<\/p>\n<p>Remember you can move or copy tasks which have subtasks in them. All subtasks belonging to the task plus \u00a0comments and attached files are also copied or moved. Below I have attached 3 images, the first one shows how to get to the Move and Copy tool, the second &amp; third are boxes which open to let the user select the task&#8217;s destination for move &amp; copy.<\/p>\n<p>We are constantly improving the task page to help you better maintain and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.binfire.com\/blog\/2015\/07\/the-best-way-to-estimate-tasks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">estimate your tasks<\/a>. Soon you will be able to\u00a0drag\u00a0and drop both vertically and\u00a0horizontally. This will allow you to change a task&#8217;s level using drag and drop or change its postion in the task list.<\/p>\n<p>David Robins<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-642 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.binfire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Open-copy-move-tool.png'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.binfire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Open-copy-move-tool-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.binfire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Move-Window.png'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.binfire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Move-Window-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.binfire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Copy-Window.png'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.binfire.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/Copy-Window-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Binfire is one of few project management applications which lets users move and copy tasks within a project or to another project in their workspace giving you all the features&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[7],"class_list":["post-642","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-project-management-2","tag-project-management"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Move &amp;
