I would like OmniGroup to register a feature request: allow some sort
of reasonable "outlining" in notes.
Since I mentioned this in my ATPO column, I've gotten lots of mail
looking for it so it may already be in your database.
Recently, Hog Bay Notebook came up with a clever solution which makes
life MUCH nicer for a certain type of writer. In HBN's case, if the
first line of a note has a dash then the rest of the note behaves in
some ways like an outline: tab and sh-tab indent and outdent and
return enters a new sibling.
Dragging notes to the outline section makes new headers and vice versa.
This is one way of creating something between a "full" outline and
flat paragraphs. I'm sure OG can come up with other even better ways.
Given the user interest and apparent interest from developers, there
are likely to be several solutions.
Best, Ted
