Capture
Jot a line down with Q and turn it into a task later.
Capture is for the thought you don't want to lose and don't have time to file. Write it down now and decide where it goes later.
Capturing a lineLink to this section
- Press Q on any page while you aren't typing somewhere, or click Capture in the header (just the icon on a phone).
- Type the line and press Enter, or click Save.
- The box stays open and counts what you've saved ("2 captured"), so you can get the next line down straight away. Press Esc when you're done.
Where lines goLink to this section
Captured lines show in the Captured section of My work. They're kept in your private Suru Me settings in YouTrack, so only you see them, they follow you to every device, and they stay out of issue lists and counts. Lines captured on two devices at the same moment both survive.
Sorting them laterLink to this section
Each line has two actions:
- Make it a task (the first button beside the line): you pick the project, unless you only have one, and the New task dialog opens with the line as the title, asking for the epic. The line goes away once the task exists.
- Done (the tick): the line is dropped.
An AI assistant can also read, add and drop captured lines (see AI assistants).
