Since information can flow both ways, the second Notes window might simply lock to edit the note of your choice, while the the first one works as it presently does, editing either the active or hovered thought's notes (via shift key), based on navigation and user pref setting.
Same principle here as the fixed row capability in Excel, the split window in Word, or pinned thoughts in the Plex.

Dys, there's no great need to change the display of child thought names in Normal View as they're typically in two columns and won't truncate unless overloaded. Parent names are brief. The crunch is at center, where truncated Active, Sibling, and Jump thoughts share a single plane. That's where PB should seek opportunities to wrap rather than truncate. Wrapping Active in fact frees sibling width.

Others had the same idea, and I long ago zeroed this one out. I've found it's easy enough to check for new entries and follow progress via RSS. More importantly, Harlan takes up the good ideas, not just the early ones with dozens or hundreds of votes. Terrific improvements to PB in the past few months, in response to user feedback. So Uservoice's top-heavy display hasn't held PB back at all.

Fixed in 5.0.1.5. But I sent a bug directly to Support which wasn't. (Changing event display order on a daily calendar as you move the cursor.)

Sorry, in third paragraph: workaround is to maintain a special Node, not Note.

Even on a single PC, we'll have several favorite layouts. I like my notes in a small box on the upper left, but move them for multiple thought selection. A tiny calendar window split to show two events, no date grid, usually. Dragging, sizing, splitting, docking each time is a nuisance. Brain should be able to remember our favorite layouts and cycle among them on one button.

Found a decent workaround: Create a "Utility Node" with a bunch of thoughts named "--" or "New" and create pins for a few of them. Now you have a place onscreen to click and jot your thought. Then link and rename it. That green pulsing sphere when you create a new thought is distracting anyway; it's quicker and much more pleasant to click, jot, link and rename an existing one.

You're right about needing quick notetaking, but I wouldn't want to litter the plex with disconnected thoughts. F6 instantly creates a new child of whatever node is selected. I'd like an even faster F-function that goes right to the Notes window and lets you jot, creating a linked node from Home with a timestamped name. You can find it easily, rename it and link it up correctly later.

This is a vital enhancement. Analysis finds connections between two data sets, i.e.: present issue against past experience, principles, examples. Pin the present issue, expand its elements as a tree, and go exploring in the center plex for thoughts to be linked.

Ah, you're right. Excellent, I didn't see that. Withdrawing my votes. Thanks

Twospoons, try Pinning the Smart Thought. I use a tag called "Pin Tag" as a secondary Pin area. Don't really see why thoughts should ever be unnavigable, but where frequently-needed thoughts are deeply nested, I can reach them on two clicks by tagging them "Pin Tag."
