formatting palette not showing
hello. i am new to Yojimbo and am loving it so far. I cannot figure out how to show the formatting palette above my notes however. All that shows is fonts and colors which opens those palettes in another window. The screenshots on the yojimbo site show the align, tabs, etc. How do i get this view?
no. of files associated with each tag
Feature proposal: Could Yojimbo list the number of files associated with each tag in Yojimbo Preferences Tags? That way I coul see if I have dead tags (with no files associated). Or is there already a way to ascertain that? -- -- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list yojimbo-talk@barebones.com.

Search criteria
When I'm searching text file contents, it would be very nice to use parentheses to specify a particular phrase. Would that be helpful to anyone else? Or is there already a way to do things like this?

No matter what you use (collections, tags, labels): everything ends up in your one and only library. All that Yojimbo offers is different views, not separation of data.

Re: formatting palette not showing
The according menu entry is Format - Ruler - Show Ruler. I am not a native speaker, but for me a ruler is not very intuitive. The terminology comes from word processors. Originally, the ruler was used to set tab stops and margins. As time marched on, people started sticking things like justification controls, stylesheets, and other formatting things into it. If I hadn't seen rulers evolve over the years, I'd never think that ruler was the right word for that interface element. For what it's worth, most English localized software will call it the same thing. -- -- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list yojimbo-talk@barebones.com.

Re: newbie question
Here's my question about Yojiimbo. If I'm understanding right, there's essentially only one database for the Yojimbo application. Even if I want to use Yojimbo to catalog stuff for several very different things, they will all be together when I open Yojimbo. However, I can tag them separately to differentiate them. Are there other ways that I can keep the various mutually exclusive parts of my life apart in Yojimbo? I've never managed to make any part of my life exclusive from any other part. :-) If I'm surfing the web, and I find something related to work, I don't ignore it: I stuff it in Yojimbo for attention when I'm back on the clock. Likewise, if I'm at work, and somebody mentions a great movie I should see, I don't tune it out: I Yojimbo it. One of the design principles behind Yojimbo was that you shouldn't have to switch modes (or documents) in order to enter data. In my opinion, having to decide which Library to put something in is too much decision making up front, and it reduces the chance you'll put the information into _any_ Library. Tags are one way to let you split information up, and because tags add information to an item instead of segregating items off into separate compartments, you don't incur the Where did I file that? cost when you want to find an item again. Collections are another collating mechanism, but depending on how you enter information, they can be awkward to use efficiently. -- -- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list yojimbo-talk@barebones.com.

Re: newbie question
It took me awhile to get used to the one-bucket system at first, but once I did, it is now second nature. I prefer having everything in one place now. However, I would still like it if you could have more than one YJ library at a time (and sync them all over a single dotmac account) so that my wife and I could have separate buckets. Given that individulal dotmac accounts are probably very often used by families of users, this seems a reasonable idea. I'd even be willing to pay for a second license to do so. aj On Dec 11, 2007 8:32 AM, Steve Kalkwarf [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Here's my question about Yojiimbo.

The way all the parts are wired together, using .Mac and more than 1 Library is a non-starter.

Curiosity
Here's a weird little curiosity - I opened an Adobe Illustrator document just now (by double-clicking on it's icon in the Finder), for the first time since installing the recent 1.5 update, and rather than opening Illustrator my Mac decided that Yojimbo was a better choice and created a new Image entry with the file name as the title, although it seemed unable to read the file contents. Easily fixed with the Finder's 'Get Info', but odd none the less. I've not experienced this with any other file types, any idea what the cause might be…?

Steve Kalkwarf [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07-12-11 11.51 Ah, but the problem (for us) with that is that we want to share calendars contacts, so separate accounts are no good. What we do in our house is cross-publish calendars. I tried all sorts of evil tricks to allow my calendars to be multi-writer, and they never worked out. Same here, we publish some of our calendars to a server and subscribe to each other - not perfect but it has worked well for the last year or so. -- Jan Erik Moström, www.mostrom.pp.se -- -- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list yojimbo-talk@barebones.com.
