TeXlicpse TODO-Comment doesn't show in Task-List

I am using the TeXlipse-Plugin for the first time.

There is a Todo/Task-Support as you can see in the Manual.

But if i do a comment like '%TODO: Do something' in my file, the task is not shown in the task-view of Eclipse.

Do i have to activate the todo-support somewhere?

It works for me with % TODO test. I would check for the following things in your case:

  • Check whether the corresponding annotation is displayed to the left (next to the line number) - it looks like the icon of the task view. If not (and be sure, that there is no other annotation - e.g. a warning - because it can hide the task annotation), then the annotation is not created, and then I would follow Robs answer to define your own todo tag in Preferences on the General/Editors/Structured Text Editors/Task tags

  • Check the settings of the Tasks view - open the view menu (small triangle at the upper right corner), and choose configure contents. There try to validate the displayed task tags. I attach a screenshot that sets the TODO tags to be displayed only on the current project.

My content settings that display the task tags only from the current project

The manual at the link states "In the Eclipse Java Editor, it is possible to place TODO, FIXME and XXX keywords in comments, [...]", so it's not actually promised by TeXlipse.

Anyways, I'd try % //TODO .., maybe it's just supported that way.

If that won't work for you, try defining your own todo-tag under "window" -> "preferences" -> search: "todo"
