Working with entries
Writing entries
Creating a new entry requires only two steps. First: in the title input / search field above the editor, a name for the new entry will be specified. The second step is to write the actual entry in the editor. Note-C then automatically saves this entry, and it appears in the entry list to the left of the editor.
Searching entries
If you want to search for a particular entry or term in the notebook, the corresponding search term must be entered in the title entry / search field. The search is a full-text search, all entries containing the specified search term are displayed in the entry list. To end the search, the search term must be removed from the title entry / search field. The list of entries will be reloaded and all entries available in the notebook will be displayed.
Delete entries
To delete an entry from the notebook, there are several options:
- Remove text
- If all text is removed from the entry to be deleted, Note-C detects this and deletes the corresponding entry. In the entry list, this entry is displayed with the comment "Deleted file".
Note
- Spaces and other "invisible" inputs are recognized as text and thus do not lead to a deletion of this entry.
- Delete menu action
- Via the main menu under the item "File > Delete selected entry" the currently selected entry can be quickly removed. The entry is moved to the trash.
- Delete right-click action
- If a right-click on the entry to be deleted in the entry list is made, a menu appears containing the item "Delete". This will delete the corresponding entry. The entry is moved to the trash.
Note: When deleting an entry, the attachments attached to the respective entry are also deleted or moved to the trash.
Color label
For each entry, a color label can be assigned. To assign a color label to an entry, click on the "Color"-pop-up button in the toolbar.
Assign color label
In the menu that opens, the desired color can be selected. In this mapping, the file in which the entry is stored is assigned a Finder color label tag that is visible in the Finder and all programs that support Finder color label tags. Additionally, the color label is displayed in the entry list next to the name of the entry.
