You can sort of do this in Zoot, but I think you're restricted to putting your fields at the start of the line, like this:
Distance: 3
The data would appear in the columns of the grid, if you have s...
iPad Mini and outlining
11/9/2012
A note this morning to the developer of iThoughts regarding hoisting on nodes brought a quick response that it is on the list of things to do. Good news.

Hi, Julie,
Glad I could recommend iThoughts. The only thing it lacks (that I've uncovered so far) is the ability to drill down to show just one node and its sub nodes.
I'm glad to see on its roadmap...

I just want to correct something I wrote about Cotton that was wrong. I said that when I tried to send a document from Dropbox to Cotton, it didn't work. Actually it did. I was expecting to see the do...

Ken,
I have the Awesome Notes app on my iPod Touch. It's a nice application, but it is a bit of hybrid with a lot of task management and calendar features, which is redundant to PocketInformant, whic...

Hugh,
Yes, I do find the screen large enough for the types of tasks I'm trying to do. The smaller form seems to me to be better in for mobile note-taking than the regular sized iPad (which I've never...

Looking for a "notebook" style app to do what I was hoping Notebooks would do, I tried ProjectBook and a couple of other notebooks. These seem like good applications, but they weren't clicking for me,...
which solution do you suggest?
11/7/2012
That's a tall order.
If you're working on a PC, I think the only thing that comes close (and nothing, I'm aware of will do all you want) is OneNote. If you're working on a Mac, try Curio.

Seems like there are a few funky things going on with the forum. In the topic "iPad Mini and Outling" it shows on the Topics page that Franz was the latest poster on November 5, but if you go to the e...
iPad Mini and outlining

For the first time in my life, I bought a new Apple gadget as soon as it went on sale. Some how I feel a little ashamed of this, but I'll get over it. Anyway, my iPad Mini arrived on Friday (actually,...
In a standard wiki (if such a thing exists), hyperlinks would be the number one means of providing structure to and navigating among your notes. In ConnectedText, however, there are so many other way...
I've finally gotten my review of ConnectedText as an outliner posted. Since it has been so long since I was writing the other reviews, I decided against using the same format for this review, as I've ...
FoldingText for Mac out
10/22/2012
Another issue with this early version of Folding Text is the very limited export options. Basically (unless I'm missing something), you can export to HTML or... that's it. You can also cut and paste t...
My experiment: InfoQube on HP Slate 2
10/19/2012
I'm not trying to make a sales pitch for Zoot. The program is terrific, but it has its failings, chief among these right now is that it still has no Help File for the new version. Also, the interface ...
My experiment: InfoQube on HP Slate 2

Airways,
I remember Stone Notes... if I recall properly it was a nice little program.
I don't use InfoQube, but I've been generally impressed by Pierre's ambition for the program.
If you decide IQ ...
FoldingText for Mac out
10/17/2012
I bought my copy yesterday and I have to say that I'm a bit disappointed so far with limited use.
First of all, there's not much that Folding Text can do that you can't already do with TaskPaper and ...
Curio 8
10/13/2012
There are some quirks that take getting used to, but it is really a quite remarkable, versatile notebook application. And that's "notebook" almost in the old sense of the word: a place to keep notes a...

This is a nice update, mostly an interface improvement, but lots of nice new features too. I'm working on a review for Mac Appstorm, which will probably be posted in about three weeks.
Steve Z.
Interesting case. If you were on a Mac, I'd say Tinderbox would handle this pretty easily. Do you use Scrivener for Windows? If so, you might find the Binder vs. Collections views useful for this exer...
Noteliner 3.5 now available

Just a heads up to Noteliner users that Sam has posted the latest version:

Looks like some nice improvements.

Yes, this does look interesting. Not sure from your comment, Hugh, if you're aware that FoldingText IS the work of the guy who developed TaskPaper.
Info Select UI vs. The Window Tree

Razorboy,
If I understand what you're saying correctly, I agree with you. I have appreciated the main interface of InfoSelect... it's just the rest of the program that needs work. IS could get away w...
cintanotes 1.8 is out

I'd be interested in learning how you use CintaNotes. Is it your quick in box for notes before you transfer to a more robust information manager, or do you use it for all your notes -- or something in...
Outliner/PIM roll call: Fall 2012

Sorry to be a little late to the conversation. I was on vacation the last two weeks, and while I was reading the forum, I just couldn't bring myself to write a long (winded) response.
My honor roll o...
To answer your question, it would help to know what your primary purpose is. If you're storing clippings and documents from other sources, my feeling is that you're better off with Zoot or UltraRecall...
