How do I use the advanced search?

Advanced search operators are query words or symbols that perform special actions in the tasks search. These operators allow you to find what you're looking for quickly and accurately. They can also be used to set up Smart Lists so you can organize your tasks automatically. Some of the most useful operators are listed below.

To use advanced operators, you can either type your query directly into the search box, or click on Show search options within the search box.
