Search and 'hoist' text

I'm not sure if this is what you want, but TreePad Business has this (from the help file):

Scapple
11/27/2012
Scapple's ability to work tightly with Scrivener is its appeal. I like VUE quite a lot and use its ability to visually display relations contained in csv files. It is also a wonderful brainstorming an...

Mac only. Bummer, because it looks quite useful.

RightNote vs. NoteCase Pro
11/12/2012
Andrew:
I'm pretty sure this will complicate your life, but you might want to think about tools that could better meet your needs. I'm thinking of InfoQube and Ultra Recall, but these could be overki...
RightNote vs. NoteCase Pro
11/2/2012
Dr. Andus:
No, I continue to use WhizFolders for writing chunks of text to be refined (re-organized) in WhizFolders later. I continue to rely extensively on UR and InfoQube for storing, organizing an...
I use ClipMate, but the mention of NoteTab Lite made me think of Brainstorm and TreePad. Both can do the same thing but perhaps in a more organized way than NoteTab. However, if you need to manipulate...
RightNote vs. NoteCase Pro
11/2/2012
I should also point out that while tagging is extremely cumbersome in NoteCase, filtering the tagged items is a breeze. There are multiple ways of doing this, and there is a tag cloud which can be dis...
RightNote vs. NoteCase Pro
11/2/2012
I have purchased licenses for both and have formed opinions about which suits me better. NoteCase Pro is deceptive in appearance because it is surprisingly feature-rich. It works on multiple platforms...
Windows 8 Pro, outliners and PIMs
10/26/2012
From what I see and based on direct experience, I would say that under the conditions you describe, there is no reason to move from Windows 7 to 8. There are many reasons not to, some of which may be ...
Database based PIM programs?
10/25/2012
If I understand your request, Ultra Recall would be worth a look. It is highly configurable and can be made to mimic InfoQube. There are others but I think their databases are proprietary (Zoot, MyInf...
Conversion from Pdf to txt file
10/15/2012
You have the pro version of UR? I'm surprised that you don't see text in the pane. All pdfs (not scanned which are just pictures unless you perform some OCR) are displayed as text and are searchable.

Thank you Bill. That is encouraging. Please post any additional experiences.

The Rightnote UI
10/8/2012
I have no clue. I tried to duplicate what you did and used a scanned document that was OCR'ed. It worked fine. I then used a complex pdf (pictures, tables, columns) that was just short of 20MB. Again,...

The developer is on vacation and is supposed to return tomorrow, October 9.
Can you tell me the problem you encountered with PDF indexing?

cintanotes 1.8 is out
10/2/2012
Primarily the former, BUT it has proven wonderful for keeping complicated to do lists. I imagine one could use tags to be compliant with GTD methodology, but I never liked that system. I have simplifi...
cintanotes 1.8 is out
10/1/2012
I completely agree. It is a joy to use. Simple, intuitive, responsive, and very effective. It gets the job done precisely because there are few distractions. I was productive from day one.

Thank you Stephen, Dr. Andus and tradercclee. Your guidance has been both instructional and created some consternation for me. Stephen's emphasis on the ability to be productive while keeping it simpl...
Unless I am misunderstanding you, Ecco Pro allows you to create styles for different levels. I think NoteMap does too.
Jon
Thank you Dr. Andus and Stephen. Your comments shifted my thinking about CT.
Stephen, I accept your point about collecting information. For this reason and because I can have everything in one portab...
I suppose that at the core of my question is whether Ultra Recall or InfoQube (the tools I rely on most often) duplicate most of the capabilities of CT. That would make CT redundant for me.
I've read quite a lot of positive things about ConnectedText on this forum. I have a license for version 3 and am considering upgrading. I never really used version 3 because I really didn't get it. U...
That's good and encouraging. Thank you for the information.
Jon
Have you contacted the developer? What was the response?
