Pierre,
The idea about the images inside the outline was just a passing remark about what I think is a neat trick in Ecco Pro. If you think that's a good idea for IQ, I'd probably use it but I don't...

Pierre,
I use Faststone, too, but have it set to copy the image to the clipboard. That way I can quickly paste images into different programs. I know I can set Faststone to automically save the i...

I have another question for Pierre. Maybe I should switch to the InfoQube forums but I'll go ahead and post it here in case others find it useful for understanding IQ's capabilities. I'll try to not...

Thanks, Pierre. I had found that but it wasn't having any effect when I changed it. That explains it.
Since justifying is a pretty standard formatting option you might consider making it a toolbar ...

Based on discussions in the Ecco Pro thread, I'm giving IQ another try. Could someone answer a simple question: how do you justify text in a grid column? I've tried everything I can think of and lo...

OK, that's better than nothing. I haven't kept up with all the enhancements. A while ago I posted a question about it on the Ecco Pro forum and was told it wasn't possible.

Ken,
Yes, I use colored text, too There are only three that work well: red, dark blue, and dark green. I sometimes use gray italics in place of strikeout text for completed items. I still miss hi...

Pierre,
Yes, thanks. I downloaded the latest version a couple of days ago and am giving it another try. I know that it's capable of doing that and a lot more,and the fact that it's somewhat modeled...
Yet another Ecco question

I've been using Ecco Pro since 1998 and it's still my main program for notes, though I use several other PIM's to varying degrees. My biggest frustrations with Ecco are two pretty simple things that ...
MindMup - New mind map app

I tried it out for about 15 minutes and worked through the menus and help files. Nice tool for quick mind mapping. It reminds me of Scapple.
I was puzzled by your comment that it has lots of format...
PhraseExpress is 50% off today at BitsDuJour. I was going to post my experiences on BJD but I see they're screening posts for this offer, which means no negative comments will be tolerated.

I downloaded the trial thinking this might be something that would provide a different slant for organizing research. All I can say is, be prepared for a serious time commitment to figuring this thin...

I use Swift To-Do and recently paid for the upgrade to 9.0. It's pricey, no doubt about it, and I did hesitate about the upgrade. It's a very nicely put together program with excellent support. I f...

Can anyone confirm that XLNotes is out of business? They're still for sale at BJD but the website address brings up "Server not found". I was unable to find any other information on what happened.

22111,
I was excited when I saw the many columns available in Xplorer2 but you can't modify any of them except the comments attribute, so they're worthless. At least I don't think you can. I didn't...

Based on what I've seen so far, I've concluded that its better to stick with mainstream file managers based on the following.
1) Even if you find software that offers better handling of attributes/co...

22111,
When I said I wasn't too worried about proprietary I was referring specifically to file managers, not PIM's. I see it as less risk because we're talking about the possible loss of attributes ...

Achim,
Thank you for the additional details. You're right about the gridline option; I missed that. Regarding editing the columns in place, I tried it again and it worked at first, but try this: c...

You say "Where Is It" can't add columns. That's what I said. You can use the columns provided, but can't create your own columns. Having a description column is hardly a feature since even Windows ...

Jon,
Ultra Recall was another program I found unintuitive. Again, that may very well be my fault. I'd be willing to take a look at it again. Can you get it to display the files in a spreadsheet-li...

Yes, I'm referring to attributes displayed as columns that allow you to organize your files. At this point, I don't care if it's proprietary...I'd be thrilled with something that worked. It's really...
