Depending on the task and your assigned role, this menu tab will vary in items.&#x20;

## Take a break

Stop your work manually by clicking on this option. A pop-up dialogue will appear to confirm that the active working time has been paused. *This option is **not** available in viewlinks.&#x20;*

## Pause task

Pausing a task lets you start a new task without submitting your current work. This is helpful if you're waiting for someone's help and can't move forward otherwise.

:::hint{type="warning"}
You can only have three tasks paused at a time. If you have paused three tasks the "Pause task"-button will be disabled.

### Making sure you recognize the task you paused

When pausing the task you are required to write a note. Use this opporunity to write something that makes it easier for you to recognize the task when you want to resume it.&#x20;

### Resuming the paused task

When you have achived the help you needed and are ready to resume the paused task, you can find it paused task on the page "My tasks". You can read more about how to resume the paused task via [🙋🏼‍♀️ Guide: Pausing tasks](docId:9YWwhEurxWn0RCLcpe2TH).

## Review summary

Opens the **Review summary** window, giving you an overview of the sampled-object review for the task. This option only appears in correction tasks that use sampled-object review.

## Task information

View the project title, request title and batch titel in this window.

## Scene information

Some tasks include metadata about the scene, such as recording location, weather conditions, or other contextual details. You can view this information in the **Scene information** window.

The **Scene information** option only appears in the menu when scene metadata is available for the current task. If you don't see it, the task has no scene metadata attached.

## Task history

Opens the **Task history** window, which shows the chain of tasks that led to the one you are working on. This option only appears when the task is part of a task chain (more than one linked task) and you are reviewing it.

## Copy filtered view link

When you create a filtered view link you get a link to the most recent version of the assignment that includes:

- **Source:** The source you have selected when creating the link.
  - If you are in the 2D view and have multiple cameras, the selected 2D camera is set as the source.
  - If you are in the 3D view the 3D view is set as the source. This means that the selected 2D cameras will *not* be specified in the link.
- **Frame:&#x20;**&#x54;he sequence frame you are in when creating the link.
- **Object:&#x20;**&#x54;he object you have selected when creating the link. If you haven’t selected an object when creating/copying the link no object will be linked.

## Copy unfiltered view link

The unfiltered view link is a link to the most recent version of the assignment without any specification of an object, frame or source.&#x20;

## Copy assignment id

Copies the assignment id to your pasteboard. The assignment id is an internal reference to a specific task.&#x20;

## Copy external ID

Copies the external id to your clipboard.

## Copy scene UUID

Copies the scene UUID to your clipboard. The UUID is a unique internal reference to the scene you are working on.&#x20;
