An error occurred while saving the comment Jean-Marc Luypaert commented
Hi, an additional thought about links that occurred to me:
Wouldn't it be good if we would have the possibility to alter/change the start- and end-thought of a certain link? Imagine, after setting the colour and the thickness and the type of a link between two thoughts you realize that the end thought should be different... the only solution is to unlink and start all over again losing all property information of the existing link in the process. If the properties-window of the link had a reference to both endpoint-thoughts and it would be possible to change those into another endpoint-thought, then we wouldn't be losing the existing link properties when changing an endpoint... simple so it seems...
Of course pasting link-properties would be a good and fast solution also, similar to paste thought-coulours for example.An error occurred while saving the comment Jean-Marc Luypaert commented
After several months of working with the brain I have the impression that there is more focus on what you can do with the thoughts than what you can do with the links between the thoughts...
You can order thoughts, you can't order links
You can select different thoughts with Ctrl Select or rectangle select, you can't select the links that way
You can paste the (copied) colour of a certain thought onto a selection of thoughts, you can't do that with the links
The general "shaping" of TB (thoughts and links) would benefit from a "match properties" functionality that you find in most programs
Putting the same focus on the links- as there was already put on the thoughts-functionality would for sure benefiting the functionality of TB in general a lot!
Support for these points from other users would be welcome in order to put these higher on the development-agenda of TB!
Kind regards,
