Re: [MLO] Re: Formatting notes

I would fine bulleted lists and strikeout helpful. Sometimes I may have a 
task where I only need to enter one or two items and don't feel that a new 
subtask is really necessary. Using bulleted points and being able to strike 
them out would clean up my task list a bit.

[MLO] Re: Formatting Notes

[Metta Zetty]

Dwight, as always I appreciate your thoughtful and articulate feedback.  In 
this case, I share your question about what meaningful distinction there is 
between formatting being optional versus having it available and simply 
not using it.

Also, my interest in formatting has nothing to do with artistry and has 
everything to do with clarity. 

For example, for me, the bold, red and yellow highlighting options (along 
with manually created bullets) help in:
-- managing lists
-- segmenting chunks of task-related data, 
-- identifying questions related to the task at hand and
-- flagging critical task related issues.

For this reason, formatting actually *increases* the efficiency with which 
I can quickly scan and process the info in my task notes -- and, in the 
end, I suspect that those of us who value formatting features may simply 
have a more visual approach to processing information than others who 
feel no need for it at all.

[MLO] Re: Formatting Notes

[Metta Zetty]

Thanks for your prompt feedback, Dwight.  I do appreciate your confirmation 
since I had not found a way to make the cut-and-paste work  (FYI, I didn't 
spend much time on it at all after the 1st attempt didn't work.)

Also, FWIW, I have created a work-around for the plain text notes that I'm 
testing now, and so far it seems to be working pretty well.  

I am a huge fan of TheBrain software which includes a web-based option for 
accessing all the data in any brain (database) you create.  TheBrain also 
includes the option to create notes with full text formatting, tables, etc
-- http://thebrain.com/

What I've been doing is this:
-- For MLO tasks that don't require any note formatting, I simply use the 
plain text editor provided in MLO.
-- For tasks that include more data and require more complex formatting 
(including bullets, tables, highlights, color and bold text), I simply 
create my formatted note in TheBrain, and then put a link to this brain 
note in my MLO.

Because TheBrain provides both local and web-based URLs for every note you 
create, I could actually use either type of link.  However, since I run MLO 
from within Dropbox and I access it from 2 different computers, I've opted 
to use the web-based version of the brain links and this allows me to 
access my formatted notes in TheBrain from whatever computer I'm on.

I realize this work-around may not be an option for some people given the 
cost of maintaining a webbrain account:
-- http://thebrain.com/store/version-details/

However, for me TheBrain, and access to it from the web, are both 
indispensable -- and, paired now with MLO, this is now, without a doubt, 
the very best task and information management solution I've ever had. 

Hope this helps others who are looking for a formatted note work-around! :-D
Metta

Wow, what an expensive workaround for having formatted text!  219 $ once 
and extra cloud costs each month.

Re: [MLO] Re: Formatting Notes

Andrey, hint, hint. How about bringing MLO to the present and include RTF. 
I've been wanting formatted text for some time now and it would actually 
prevent me from having to create so many tasks for one task.
