inheritance on copied thoughts with comma
when using copy and paste function the comma trick is copying the previous parentname into the new thought instead of inheriting the new parents name. If this would be fixed, it's easy to, on your own, create template thoughts, wich you can copy and paste within the brain.

Fix Import Outline to allow use of the "comma trick"
Outlines are useful for when you have the same children under many different parents. (i.e. I have 20 accounts, each has on Account Manager, etc. Outlines let me easily set each new account up.)
The "Comma Trick" is useful to help identify which parent a child comes from. This is particularly useful when I have, say, 20 accounts, each with an Account Manager, etc.
Since I want to be able to tell which Account (Parent) any given Account Manager (Child) comes from, I use the "Comma Trick". Since I want all of my Accounts step the same way, I use…

Reports to include Forgotten Thoughts
This would permit us to do a lot more with them, such as subfilter them according to Tag, Type etc. Naturally they would only be displayed when Show Forgotten Thoughts is enabled. See here for full discussion:

Make it possible to have several brains simultaneously opened
I would like to be able to open several brains simultaneously in a tabbed interface. I want to use Personal Brain for keeping track of my to do list, but I don't want to mix them with thoughts related to projects. Being able to open several brains at the same time would allow me to keep them separated.

Report Subselection by starting letter(s)
For those of us with very large Brains, report selecting by Thought Type seems to freeze the program for all but the smallest types. If we could subselect with a masked starting letter(s) it would allow us to use the reporting like we used to when the Brain was still small. Example: Within a specific thought type, or other selection criteria, be able to subselect by F, Than, or perhaps A-C for a range.

Better support for Spaces and Dock on Mac
Being able to drag a URL to PersonalBrain icon on the Doc, and have it switch to PB and add it as an attachment to a thought (same as Windows), even when in a different Space. Always clicking on PB icon switches to the assigned Space.

Assign separate color to highlighted links
In v5.5, "Links retain their assigned colors even when they are highlighted". This will make it even more difficult to identify and cut links buried in a dense plex.
The only reason I'm wasting a vote on this is that we had this feature in 5.0 but it was taken away from us without any user consultation, as far as I know.

Word count for all thoughts (names + labels + notes)
It would be nice if I know how many words in all thoughts (names + labels + notes).

Recover more screen space on Webbrain
The Comments pane is taking way too much screenspace. A Comments button could be added to the menu, possibly replacing the Upload button as that could be done from My Accounts.

Unify PersonalBrain feel (button consistency)
This feature request is for a unified theme for PersonalBrain.
Currently the toolbar buttons are grey on dark grey. However the buttons on the reports (specifically the refresh), and the tags, and the calendar bar don't match this theme.The first part of this request is that the theme is carried over to the Calendar, Reports, Properties & Attachments and search windows. Perhaps also to a lesser extent to the Notes window also.
The second part is to have a unified colorized version (s) of the buttons for those that prefer color for their buttons.
This way, those who prefer…

Restore highlighting link in different color in 5.5
In 5.0 we could not only display a link thickened when it was highlighted but assign a different color to it if we wanted to, to make it stand out from the others when we need to edit or delete it. The present situation is very confusing. For more details see:

Anchor all Thoughts when Expanded View opens
1) Options > Preferences to display all Thoughts anchored (i.e., turn Auto-arrange off) when Expanded View starts. If Old or New Expanded, still start with all Thoughts anchored.
2) Toggle switch on Menu to Anchor All / Release All Thoughts.

Use an Accelerator to open an Expanded View
I hate having to navigate every time through the following steps which is currently the only way to view a Saved Expanded View:
- Click on View.
- Navigate with the mouse cursor all almost all the way down to the end of the pull-down-menu.
- Click on Expanded View to show available saved Expanded Views.
- Click on the desired saved Expanded view.
I hate it for a good reason! Because I'm becoming a heavy user of the expanded view since I'm on the urge of migration from Windows Explorer!
I want to set an Accelerator to be able to use it as…

Requesting an option: don't show hidden attachments!
I've just imported a small part of my massive OneNote Notebook collection. OneNote uses a HIDDEN file with the name "OneNote Table Of Contents.onetoc2" for what the names suggests. That file is shown as an attachment, even though it's hidden.
I want a preference checkbox to change this behavior to HIDE files which are hidden in the thought folder!
