Description
(as in Hogbay Notebook)
Updates
| Version: | » 1.1.2 |
I wish I knew what this was
You select a section of text in the text view. And choose "Extract Section". The selected text is then replaced with a link to a new child entry that contains that text. It's a quick way to break a large body of text up into a set of linked bodies of text. This is a feature that I like and will add back, I'm just not sure when.
Geez, I never used this fuction in HBN! I look forward to using it in Mori! Thanks for explaining it.

This was one of my most favorite features in HBN. If you find yourself deconstructing large, complicated documents like specs it's a must have.
My two acid tests when I was evaluating outliner/notebooks was:
1. Create three entries called "one", "two", "three" with associated text "one", "two", "three
hands off the mouse. Bonus points for indenting and outdenting (is that a word?) without the mouse.
2. Take the HTTP spec (text) and paste it into an entry (should be completely readable) and then break the sections into an outline. Bonus points if there's a mechanism for doing this automatically.
It's amazing how many notebook/outliners just absolutely fall over on these two things. Especially with pasting in the HTTP spec. The only thing the old HBN couldn't do was define section break patterns so that the HTTP spec broke automatically into entries. But that was bonus points anyway :)

Added in Mori 1.3
That's brillant and a killer-feature I think!
Forget OmniOutliner ... the real "professional" app is Mori.
