The Power.ME Toolbar is the black bar that appears on the right edge of your iPad screen when you hold it horizontally and along the lower edge of the screen when you hold it vertically. The Toolbar is available from almost all the pages within the app and allows you to quickly add tasks and other items, access help with Power.ME, change your settings, search your Power.ME content, and return to the home page view.
The Home Menu is the off-white bar that appears on the left when the iPad is horizontal and nests into the Home button in the Toolbar when the iPad is vertical. The Home Menu allows you to navigate to your essential Power.ME functions and lists. When you first use Power.ME, the options will appear in the following order: Documents, Inbox, Tasks, Projects, Task Filters, Team Room, Due Date, Priority, Complete, and Trash.
Many pages have an Actions button in one of the top corners of the screen (it looks like a rectangle with an arrow breaking out of it). Tapping the button reveals additional options, such as printing or expanding. Options vary depending on the page being viewed.
Your Documents List will show all of your documents and media files (be they Power.ME notes and drawings or files uploaded from other programs). Documents are organized alphabetically and divided according to the project or folder in which they are stored. (See the Media Files portion of the user guide for more information.)
Your Inbox is where all tasks, projects, and folders that other users assign to you go. It is also where new tasks you create go if you don’t organize them into projects and folders. From the inbox you can view these items and organize them into your existing projects and folders. (See the Inbox, Team Room, & Trash portion of the user guide for more information.)
Your Task List displays all your uncompleted tasks (if you change the default settings, it will also display completed tasks). Tasks are organized alphabetically and divided according to the project or folder in which they are stored. (See the Tasks portion of the user guide for more information.)
Your Project List displays all your projects and folders. Projects and folders are organized alphabetically. To view the contents within a project or folder, tap on its cell. If instead you want to view the project or folder’s details (due date, start date, assignments, etc.), tap on the project/folder icon. (See the Projects potion of the user guide for more information.)
Your Filter List displays all your filters organized alphabetically. From the Filter List you can tap on a specific filter and view all the tasks it’s attached to. (See the Filters portion of the user guide for more information.)
Your Team Room displays all content that others have shared with you and that you have shared with others using Power.ME Sync & Share. Content is divided into items that have been assigned to you and items you have assigned to others. The items you have shared are further divided according to who you shared them with. (See the Inbox, Team Room, & Trash portion of the user guide to learn more about navigating the Team Room. See the Tasks, Projects, or Media Files portions of the user guide for more information about sharing and assigning.)
The Due Date List displays all tasks and projects that have assigned due dates. Items are organized according to the due date, with closer due dates appearing first. Overdue items’ due dates appear in red. (See the Tasks or the Projects portion of the user guide for more detailed instructions on setting due dates.)
Your Priority List displays all the tasks that have a set priority (low, medium, high, or urgent), with the higher priority items appearing higher on the list. The cells of priority items will also be different colors so you can find them easily in your normal Task List. You can edit the priority of a task by editing the Task Details. (See the Tasks portion of the user guide for more detailed instructions on setting priority.)
Your Trash displays all the items you have deleted. From the Trash you can restore or destroy individual trashed items or you can empty the trash to permanently destroy all the trashed items. (See the Inbox, Team Room, & Trash portion of the user guide for more information.)
