I’ve a gradle project structure and I’m using eclipse. I’ve installed gradle plugin for eclipse.

However tasks aren’t shown in Gradle Tasks Panel, so I’m not able to launch these ones.

```
project/
   build.gradle
   settings.gradle
   .project
   .classpath

```

I’m able to perform any task using command line.

Any ideas?

See [here](https://discuss.gradle.org/t/custom-tasks-are-not-being-included-in-the-gradle-tasks-view/12760/2)

Tasks without a “group” are considered private and are hidden by default. Either give the tasks a group or toggle private tasks to be visible in buildship

This behavior has surprised a few people including me.
