Description Breda McColgan 2003-09-04 09:50:44 UTC 
Description of Problem:
All menu options should be available from the main
menubar. Some items, such as Assign Task and
Forward as iCalendar, are available from the
menubar after you open a task. Others, such as
Open task, are available from a right-click popup
menu only.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Invoke Tasks.
2. Create several tasks.
3. Review the main menu. Right-click on any task
to review the popup menu.

Actual Results:
Several menu items are available on the
right-click popup menu only, or are available in
the menubar after you open a task.

Expected Results:
All menu items should be available from the menubar.

How often does this happen? 
Every time.

Additional Information:
Evolution 1.4.

Retargeting 1.5.3->1.5.4 bug reports. Sorry for the spam.
Comment 4 Rodrigo Moya 2004-03-04 17:05:31 UTC 
In evolution 1.5.x, the only missing one is 'Assign task' which should
probably be placed in the 'Actions' menu.
Comment 5 André Klapper 2004-07-20 10:36:24 UTC 
in evolution1.5-1.5.90.0.200407090432-0.snap.ximian.8.1 i the right 
click menu has got "Assign task" and "Forward as iCalendar" which are 
both not available from the menu bar.

btw: "Mark as finished" is in the "Edit" menubar - also think about 
that if you add those two missing items to (perhaps) "Actions" in the 
menu bar, i'm pretty sure that many users cannot distinguish and would 
search in both drop down menus... [to avoid the "usability" word ;-) ]
