Hello everyone,
I have a question about my workflow with Supernotes. I frequently generate notes that aren’t yet organized hierarchically. When a note exceeds the soft character limit by 150%, I realize it needs to be split. I then select a logical point to cut and paste the content into a new note, making it either a child or sibling of the current note. Additionally, I create a new parent to house both the current note and its sibling (or child).
How do you handle this situation?
Currently, my process involves many clicks, disrupting my writing flow:
- Close the current note, open it in the noteboard, create a child, and paste.
- Close the current note, create a new parent, open it in the noteboard, create a sibling, open the original note, assign the new parent, reopen the parent, place it in the noteboard, and continue writing a third note.
- Close the current note, create a second note in home, then a third. When concepts start to escape, I stop and create a parent for all of them.
If I’m not in the home view but within the tree, I also need to adjust parent connections, adding more steps.
These numerous clicks interrupt my writing flow. Does anyone have a more streamlined approach?
Additionally, I noticed a “similarity” popup suggesting related forum topics before posting. This inspired a new idea: if a similar feature were integrated into the note-taking interface, suggested notes could offer options like “link,” “make parent,” or “make child.” This could streamline structuring to just one click.
