[Zim-wiki] Zim VS Android

[Yahoo]

Hi everyone,

I have 2 questions about Zim VS Android :

1. Is there an android application that can recognize the Zim format
(other than simple text editors)? By recognizing the Zim format, I mean
: titles, bullets, numbering, tasks, etc.
2. If I want to share/export my Zim tasks with Android, is there a way
to do it? Any suggestions?

Thanks

[Zim-wiki] line separator in ToC

[Yahoo]

Hello there,

Don't know if it's a new feature or a bug on my computer, but does
anyone have noticed that, recently, line separators appear in the table
of contents of pages?

Running Zim 0.73.1 on Budgie-Ubuntu 20.04 (focal).

Thanks

Renaud Levesque

Re: [Zim-wiki] How user can see completed tasks in the task list?

[Yahoo]

Hi Nick

There could be a couple of ways to do it.

1. Simple, but not so elegant, is to use the Task List but never check
the boxes.

Instead, use a tag like @completed or @finished (but not both), so you
can filter tasks on those tags. This way, you could have @cancelled also
or @delayed or whatever you want.

Tags are very useful with tasks as you can mix them. For example, I
often put an estimated time in the form of a tag (@d2 for 2 days, @h3
for 3 hours, etc.), so I can again filter based on time.

2. Use Task List and check the boxes as usual.

Since Zim files are simple text files, you can seach them using tools or
commands.

For Windows, I know a tool called Copernic that can do this job, as it
indexes files and their content.

On Linux, DocFetcher does the same.

On Linux, for the current directory, the command "cat *txt | grep
"\[\*\]" will find all completed tasks, as "
cat *txt | grep "\[x\]" will give all cancelled ones.

Hope that helps.

Hi Joseph,

With the latest versions of Zim, you can now do it in Preferences > Key
Bindings.

Hope this helps.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Zim 0.73 released !

[Yahoo]

Hi/Bonjour,

Yes, thank you very much for this wonderful piece of software!

I've made the switch from Tomboy about 10 years ago and never regret it.
Used it at home on linux and at my job on linux and windows (just wish I
could use it on Android). When I left my job, a couple of years ago,
coworkers asked me to leave them my Zim notes, because they knew how
useful these notes were.

Thanks again/Merci!

Re: [Zim-wiki] Attachments management

[Yahoo]

Hi Alessia,

If I remember well, you can search files inside Thunar, which is the
default file browser of Xubuntu.

If not, you can install Catfish which will do the work fine. With
Catfish, you can even copy the paths of the files found and paste it
in... Zim!

I now use Nemo on Budgie Ubuntu and there is also a way to find files
from it.

Hope this helps.

Bye

Re: [Zim-wiki] "Go to date" shortcut broken in Zim 0.72 (Ubuntu 19.10)?

[Yahoo]

Hi Roberto,

I got the same configuration as you (Ubuntu 19.10 with Budgie desktop
although, Zim 0.72.0), and alt-d is working fine.

Maybe you could take a look at the key bindings now available in the
preferences and see if you got the following entry :

/journalPageViewExtension/go_page_today            ALT-D

Hope this helps. So long.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Using start AND due date

[Yahoo]

Hi there,

I also got some problems with disappearing tasks from times to times. I
think it comes from syncing my notebooks to/from USB key. Running "zim
--index ..." or forcing reindex from tools menu don't solve it.

The only way I found of /really/ reindexing is to change the sections to
index in the task list preferences, validate, and change back again to
its old values (i.e. retyping the sections to index).

Hope it helps.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Daily due dates for tasks in weekly journal

[Yahoo]

Hi Bruno,

Just a suggestion : it looks to me as your goal would be acheived if you
change the journal page setup from weekly to daily. Task list can be
sorted by date due then.

That's how I set up mine and it works very well. In the task
configuration page, I've set up index pages only on "Journal" and
"Actions" and I use tags to filter tasks.

Re: [Zim-wiki] Is "Labels marking inactive task" still working for Task List plugin in 0.67?

[Yahoo]

Hi there,

I just hope the "inactive labels" will still be usable, at least by the
"preferences.conf" file, because this is a feature I use a lot in
combinaison with the journal that sets dates automatically.

There is allways some tasks that I don't want to see right now. Future
tasks in the journal are marked this way (@inactive), which look like
the same behavior with a starting date, but also some tasks in the past
are also not actionable right now, being @suspended or @in_waiting for
exemple (plus, I can still display all the tasks and filter them by
their status).

Just wanted to share how useful the feature is.

Thanks
Renaud
