Ideas for Arc XP

Keyword search tasks

As an editor I would like to be able to perform keyword searches of task information.

Example - a colleague asks if a task to take a photograph is complete. They tell me the photograph is of a famer called John Smyth from Dublin for an article about carrots. In Websked tasks I can filter using various criteria but I cannot perform a keyword search for this task using 'John Smyth' or 'carrots' for example.

In other Arc apps - Websked planning, Composer, Video Center, Photo Center I can use keywords to find assets, but not as far as I can see in Tasks.

This would be of great benefit in quickly finding a particular task based on expected user behaviour available elsewhere in Arc

    Thanks for the suggestion -- are you imagining that the text is searching the associated story and other content, or only the task?
