  • A negative index removes tasks at that index – 1 (-1 removes task 0, -2 removes task 1, etc.).
  • Note: xsTaskAmount should now be used to set the task type, the object/class to target using:
    • cTaskAttrTaskType = 28; // the task type
    • cTaskAttrObjectId = 29; // the object ID
    • cTaskAttrObjectClass = 30; // the class ID
  • These ModifyTask functions should be preferred over xsTask moving forward, as they do not have the same insertion/search-related limitations as xsTask.
