Mori1.6.13Adapt, or die.

Out of Your Way, or In Your Face. It's All About You

Adjust the sizing of the three main views of your notebook. Switch from Standard to a Widescreen layout. Or hide the Source and/or Entries lists to give yourself the headroom you need to focus on your thoughts. This is your notebook…make it work on your behalf.

Open several windows on one notebook. Selectively "float" any you want so you can move info between your notebooks and other apps.

Customize the toolbar like you do in the Finder. Only in Mori, you can also add your favorite scripts to have them at your fingertips. Open another window on a note, and you can view two at the same time. Or many more. And note windows can customize their toolbars separately from notebooks, so you stay organized.

Organization Tools

In the Information Age, the biggest problem isn’t whether the information you need is available or not. The biggest problem is being able to find it. Mori not only lets you create or capture very large quantities of information, it lets you categorize and organize them in the way you need them.

Every entry in a Mori notebook has a set of attributes designed to let you organize, categorize and classify your data just the way you want. Define notebook-specific tags to categorize entries or record their keywords. Use the checkbox field to mark off completed items or mark important. Rank entries by their importance or likability with the rating attribute. The flag column is a useful way to identify an entry has a high-priority or is cause for concern. Even color-code entries with Finder-like labels, so at a glance you see what category an entry falls under.

And if Mori doesn’t already know what makes some entries in a notebook more important than others, create a smart folder that does.

Outlines

Mori follows your lead, letting you determine how your notes are laid-out so it’s easier for you to use them.

Mori doesn’t just collect notes in folders, creating huge lists for you to scroll through everytime you need something important. Your notes can be organized into outlines. You can group your notes into folders like some other note programs do if you like. But you can go further. Put folders in other folders. Nest notes into other notes and folders as deeply as you need them to be. And it doesn’t matter in which order you wrote them: you can rearrange and structure entries to suit your thoughts.

Or, if you want an entry or a branch of the outline to be present at several locations, create aliases to the entry in question and move them to where you’d like. Then, any time you change any entry within that branch, the change will be reflected everywhere else you have its alias. You can also copy a branch of the outline, again of any size, if you need to keep a record of it as it was at one time.

When you’re inspired to work on a new idea, write out your thoughts in the source list just as they come to you. Whether you write out the complete outline first or only the big picture, Mori stays out of your way and tracks the entries for you. Your solution determines the structure of your notebook, and it remains pliant as your needs change or become clearer.

Mori even turns your notes into putty in your hands. And not just with drag and drop manipulation of text. Select a part of the note. “Extract Text Section…” Mori will create a child entry with that selection, and you can move it about the outline too. If you later decide you no longer need it as a separate section, just “Inline Text Section” and the sectioned note will be integrated back into its source. Changes and all!

Search

Information Overload. It’s a common occurrence. People get so much data thrown at them, it’s easy to lose track of the info they need to keep track of. Finding it again isn’t the problem: what’s important is finding it when you need it.

Mori’s built-in indexed search will let you search a notebook for the entries you need. You can even match entries based on wildcards. And have them all sorted by relevancy. Save frequent search terms so the results are instantly accessible. Mori even supports Spotlight for the times when you don’t remember which notebook the details are in, or to search your notebooks from any app.

Now, you don’t need to worry you’ll lose track of some detail because it’s buried under too much information. Now, your work is thriving and you’re more productive than ever because you’ve got Mori…and all the information you need.

Customize Mori to Fit Your Work and Life

Sometimes, the columns already set up for you just don’t let you organize your notebook the way you want. If you’ve ever tried to shoehorn your thoughts into off-the-shelf software or pre-printed planner pages, you know how frustrating it can be. That’s why you’ll love Mori’s User Columns. Define the columns you want, to hold the data you want, and act the way you want; Mori will then generate a new notebook with those columns, using the same Core Data technology from Apple that it uses to quickly search through its records, so your own notebook data isn’t treated like a second-class citizen.

You’ll be able to display your columns right next to the ones previously defined by Mori, sort on them, and even use them to search for entries to include in Mori’s Smart Folders, something you can’t do in Finder.

Rich Media Notes

Mori allows you to make notes in the way that’s most meaningful for you, with stylized text, images, audio and more.

Rich text formatting gives you the tools to easily present your message with style, wit, and emotion. Write in multiple languages as easily as using multiple fonts. Use hypertext to link to relevant documents on the web or your network. Embed PDFs or eye-catching lists and tables formatted to perfection. Sophisticated kerning and ligatures for superior typesetting control. Integrated checking of grammar (on Leopard) and spelling while you type. Dictionary-based word completion hints, and more.

If pictures can’t adequately capture the details, then incorporate audio files, or even movies, to better express your creative mind.

Mori’s power means you have choices: multiple fonts, styles, color, kerning, ligature, baseline, height, multilingual support; indentation, spacing, alignment, tabs and margins on a paragraph-by-paragraph basis; style, and attachments such as images, audio, video and even virtual reality.
