Hi.,
You mean the "horizontal" axis, i.e. the timelines? Don't remember how many you can create but it is more than the 4 you seen on the screenshot.

Outliner for redacting?

Hi Dr. Andus.
I would use Scrivener for Windows for that job.
The only point it may not fit your requirements is (2): You'd have to break the original text up into slices - Scrivener does not do tha...

Graham.

Experience I'd say. I started with Sidekick and TornadoNotes in 1988, and still have Infoselect on my main computer.

Well, if I am only to name one application, then it's OpenOffice.org (Writer and Calc). That's what I use to produce my newsletters and magazines, blog entries and website text.

The same here: Internet Explorer can't display the page, Firefox can, though.

No "if", Steve. The review is really great: It is a meaningful review plus an informative tutorial on top.
