What is a Task Button?
A task button is an item in graphical user interfaces (GUIs) that allows users to issue commands by clicking it with a mouse, touching it, or using the keyboard Enter key. Task buttons are usually small and rectangular, and on pop-up menus they allow users to perform tasks such as "cancel," "save," and "print". This important component of GUIs makes navigating and executing tasks simple even for people with limited computer skills.
