Keywords

Bonsai Outliner for Windows > Keywords

Bonsai maintains a single list of keywords that is shared by all outlines. When adding keywords to items in an outline this list is displayed.  Keywords are assigned to categories for grouping.

The keyword list is global to all outlines.  Keywords are inserted into outlines as text, and not as references to the global keyword list.  Changes you make to the global keyword list are not reflected in the outlines.

Icons can be assigned to the keywords. The icons can then be displayed in the outline instead of the keyword text.

Keywords for items are shown on the Links tab of the details dialog.

When all keywords are shown (see desktop example above), the category is appended to the keyword for display. When a category is selected, as with the handheld example, the category is not appended to the keyword.

Note:

During synchronization the most recent set of keywords (desktop or handheld) is copied over the other set.  For this reason, perform keyword maintenance on one side between each synchronization.
