| Description | Specifies a priority between 1 and 1000. A task with higher priority is more likely to get the requested resources. Don't confuse the priority of a tasks with the importance or urgency of a task. It only increases the chances that the tasks gets the requested resources. It does not mean that the task happens earlier, though that is usually the effect you will see. It also does not have any effect on tasks that don't have any resources assigned (e.g. milestones). This attribute is inherited by subtasks if specified prior to the definition of the subtask. | ||
