How to edit predecessors without having to scroll through an entire list of all tasks?

I have a project with 100s of tasks and want to figure out a quick way to add predecessors without having to scroll through the entire list. Is there a way to add a predecessor by typing in the desired predecessor “ID” or “Name?” When I try to type in a specific name now it seems to select the first thing it finds without much control.

At the moment there is no such option in the predecessors pane, sorry. You can edit the predecessor list directly in the task table, though (in the basic format, it is just a comma-delimited list of predecessor task ids), or draw the dependencies on the chart using a mouse.

Great, editing directly in the task table with a long click works just as well. Didn’t realize that was an option until now, thanks!
