Hello, I΄ve started using this program couple of days ago, and find it very usefull and well thought out and done. So, I would like to complement a member΄s suggestions some posts ago, or even make new ones:
---------------------------Quote-------------------------------- - I need a bit better way to manage the "excluded words" list. I keep adding words, and I would like to be able to edit them as an alphabetized list so I can add extended forms (plurals, etc.) - Set up a synonyms list, where I would input a "canonical" word and its synonyms. These synonyms would be lumped together under the canonical word in the word cloud, and the search function would return search results for all of the synonyms when one of them is entered. For bonus points - this is probably tougher than the rest of it put together - allow for a multiple-word synonym. ------------------------------End Quote------------------------------ I think the first suggestion could be implemented by using another prog, capable of sorting, and copy-pasting the ¨excluded words¨ list to this prog and re-copy-pasting back to the field of the list in preferences. Of course, it would be better to let RedNotebook do that by itself, it΄s just a workaround. The second suggestion is maybe the most interesting: I too find the need to lump together words, not neccessarily synonyms, but let΄s say ¨groups¨, and the rule of the colection could be arbitrary. So these ¨group-words¨ should appear in the cloud, and maybe clicking on them could on first click open the colection as a ¨sub-cloud¨, and then either choosing the whole ¨sub-cloud¨ or specific items from it. That would mean an introduction of a double cloud hierarchy, searchable of course. Another missing feature (or one I could not trace myself) is to be able to import a page or a whole journal to another journal. By this I mean to add the contents of the first journal to the corresponding dates (pages) of the second *and* the categories etc (annotations) of this day(s)/page(s). This would immensely useful, by adding for instance the contents of the first journal at the end of the corresponding page of the second, after a double seperator line. Another suggestion would be rather secondary but obligatory: Please when changing views, from *Edit* view to *Preview* view, keep the place of the Edit view in the page, when returning to it, ie when returning to Edit view from Preview, I should find myself in the same position in the text where I left, not in the beginning of the page. The cursor should be visible at the same position. Then, I woulf very much like to be able to copy and paste annotations of any kind to another page (date). Maybe I΄m asking too much, but these are my suggestions anyway. Oh, and please add some more keyboard shortcuts, for example a shortcut for ¨annotating¨, then maybe a letter shortcut for ¨Adding¨ an item, ¨Deleting¨ it or ¨Changing the text¨, so as to not to be forced to use the mouse for these jobs. Thank you for this valuable program.
