TRANSCRIPTEvery word of the video, as text.

Everything about an activity lives in one panel, which is convenient, and in eight tabs, which is thorough.

Details is the whole activity on one panel: eight tabs, from General to the Log. Pop out floats the panel as a window; Dock puts it back under the grid.

Each tab is a subject. Progress holds the actual dates, suspend and resume, and percent complete. Show only what is set folds the empty sections away, so a long panel reads short.

Collapse all folds the schedule to its top row. Expand all, in View, opens it again.

That was the Details panel. Next in the Guide: how scheduling works, and why the dates are what they are.
