Felix, thanks for that. Shift + return, I think, is the solution. I'm somewhat lazy so it would be nice to have a pre-defined set of outline styles, as one does with, say, Open Office. But I will look at that also. Thanks for the suggestions. Daly Daly, I hope I understood correctly what you mean. P...

Petko, there are times when I have the topic property selected for multi-line display of titles in the tree that it does not work immediately. In such cases, I need to play around with the vertical line which adjusts the width of the tree pane, moving it right (widening the tree pane), and then movi...

Petko, I gain, I cannot remember whether we discussed this before or not. Is it possible to extend the mutli-line title property so that it applies to information in column cells? There are times when it is helpful to have a multi-line display in column cells, and often it is easier than having to s...

Petko, I cannot recall whether we've discussed this before, so please forgive me if we have. I am currently preparing a special MyInfo topic for a client, which will involve the client using MyInfo to track activities related to executive function issues, and to achievement of his life goals and pro...

Hey Fred, thanks for the kind words, and the benefit of the doubt. First, I must say I was unaware of your being unwelcome at outlinersoftware.com - or if I had once been aware of it, have forgot whatever brought it about. I think you could make a worthy contribution to the group there. With regards...

Fred, greetings. You wrote: "Thus, wasp, please, leave your perfect anonymity, and we'll respect you for your scholarly credentials; have a look at professor Manfred Kühn, the leading (? = one of the leading without any doubt) Kant specialists worldwide (another born German, but Canadian by his...

Petko, The ability to have multi-line titles for documents and subdocuments was a step forward for MyInfo, one I appreciate, especially as I use columns a lot, and have to keep the tree column relatively narrow to accommodate the metadata. However, on three different computers now, I have observed t...

Karl, I agree. The balance for some will be with multiple windows open, and for others, it will be with split screen. Either way, it would be good to safe specific arrangements as "views" which could be re-established with a mouse click when coming back to a project. If MI offered both mul...

I agree with everything suggested in the quoted post, except one thing, and that has to do with split window versus multiple windows. I like the ability to move multiple windows around - to size them as I want, and place them where I want, in relation to each other. It is part of my creative thinkin...

Hey Fred, happy Fri 13th - here it is still the 12th. I may remain a CRIMPER, in the sense I have an interest in this kind of software, and will probably always keep up to speed on what is happening in terms of development. I have used MI before, and had got away from it - perhaps the crimping had g...

Hoisting is beneficial - it helps to focus the attention.

Fred, as I noted on another thread, just now I do believe MyInfo will be much more use friendly for writers and researchers and students of all kinds when it has the ability to open multiple windows - this feature is one lacking in virtually all other information programs. When Eric Somer was develo...

Fred, I see we both read outlinersoftware.com ! Re the MAC: It is going back to Staples. I love the hardware, and the stability of the platform. With the possible exception of DevonThink, the information programs are over-rated, and/or poorly presented, and/or poorly explained, and/or have feature s...

Petko, my apologies - I missed the announcement.

That is very good news!

Thank you.

Petko, as presumably we're drawing closer to a version 5, I noted that in your update there wasn't a mention of having more than one item open from the tree at one time. The idea of having multiple items open at a time in separate windows is to facilitate the work of writers and researchers who can ...
