VS 2010 - cannot add a TODO token - Add is disabled?

Question

Deleting works, but it does not enable the option to Add.

@Oded: Nope, and it works the same for a brand new project. – Victor Zakharov Oct 25 '12 at 20:17 — Victor Zakharov, Oct 25 '12 at 20:17

Follow these steps,

Close the options page
Open it again and go to Environment > Tast List
Before you click on anything fill up the Name textbox with whatever new Token name you want to create.
Add gets activated. And you're sorted.

Close the window and reopen it and don't click on any Tokens. You will see the following: enter image description here

If you click on any tokens before that, ADD button will be disabled.

OR

In your screenshot you have posted, just Rename UnresolvedConflict in the textbox (below Prioity) and ADD button will be enabled.

When I open it, I have `Add` disabled, as well as `Delete` and `Change`. But I got your point - it appears that I misunderstood how it's supposed to work. Thank you - I'll mark it as an answer. – Victor Zakharov Oct 25 '12 at 20:39

It's not the way one expects it to be (clicking on Add is the last step, no t the first one), that's the misleading thing. Good catch. – Alfabravo Jun 18 '13 at 14:19
