Custom Tab

DayNotez Desktop user interface > The main screen > The Tab views > Custom Tab

The Custom tab contains the user customizable list and preview pane. It is the "powerhouse" of DayNotez Desktop, allowing custom grouping, sorting, and printing, and multi-selection action based activities. Those of you familiar with Microsoft Outlook and it's flexible lists should feel right at home here.

Custom View

Custom Entry List: This is the user customizable entry list. It allows you to sort and group DayNotez columns however you please. You can also perform group actions on multiple entries from here. Just select the entries you want to deal with, and right click to bring up a context sensitive menu of actions you can perform. For example, you may select multiple entries and choose to set their categories all to "Business", or you might want to mark them all for archive.

Note: Printing while on the Custom View allows you to print all selected the entries. Having no entries selected means you will print all the entries.

Hint: Standard windows selection rules apply here. To select a random set of entries, hold the control key down while right clicking. To select a range of entries, select and entry, the shift click on the last entry. This selects all entries from the first through the last. You can use a combination of these two methods to select the entries you want.

Preview Pane: This pane shows the "Current" entry selected in the custom view. It is usually the same single entry that is displayed on the Entry List. Although you can select and copy text from this display, you can not edit your entries here. For that, switch to the "Entry Tab". For Pocket PC users, this data may be shown in Rich Text format. It is always plain text for Palm users.
