## Create Inline Task Command
## Create New Inline Task Command
The `Create inline task` command allows you to create a new task from the current line in the editor. This command is available in the command palette.
The `Create new inline task` command opens the task creation modal from the editor and inserts a link to the new task when it is saved. This command is available in the command palette.
When you run the command, the current line is used as the title of the new task. The line is then replaced with a link to the new task file.
When the cursor is on an empty line, the link is inserted at the cursor. When the cursor is on a line with content, TaskNotes inserts a new line below it and places the task link there. The command does not use the current line as the task title.
To turn the current line into a TaskNote, use `Convert to TaskNote` or the instant conversion button next to a supported line. That flow uses the current line as the task title and replaces the original line with a link to the new task file.

## Fixed
- ([#1750](https://github.com/callumalpass/tasknotes/issues/1750)) Fixed generated default Bases filters for property-based task identification when the identifying property name contains spaces. Thanks to @Igorgro for reporting this.
- ([#1745](https://github.com/callumalpass/tasknotes/issues/1745)) Clarified the inline task documentation so `Create new inline task` is distinguished from current-line conversion. Thanks to @yvos for reporting the mismatch.
- ([#1759](https://github.com/callumalpass/tasknotes/issues/1759)) Advanced stale due dates when recurring tasks move to their next scheduled occurrence, so work-window tasks do not remain overdue after completion. Thanks to @MattPryze for reporting this.
- ([#1766](https://github.com/callumalpass/tasknotes/issues/1766)) Fixed Calendar Bases date navigation from custom note properties, so embedded calendar views can open on the date stored in the selected property instead of falling back to today. Thanks to @chrabia for reporting this.
- ([#1767](https://github.com/callumalpass/tasknotes/issues/1767)) Aligned the start and end time rows in the timeblock creation modal. Thanks to @loiveli for reporting this.
