Re: Boolean search

AND’s precedence over OR is generally the norm and widely expected behavior (except where there are no precedence rules, and it simply parses from left to right). At the same time, use of parenthesis (grouping) allows the user to change the order of operations in any manner desirable. So, if groupin...

[planned] Outline Titles

Hi, I just created my first outline in MyInfo7 (notes with multi-line titles and horizontal pane.) I am generally happy about it as I can see me using MyInfo for creating outlines, for which I was using a different software. I am wondering if it is possible to align the note icon with the first line...

[fixed] Editing and saving Excel attachment having issues

After editing and saving Excel attachments and then saving again into MyInfo, the attachment pops up again in "read only" mode. You can click on the "Don't Save" button to get rid of it, so I have been doing that, but the resulting confusion is not helping. First "Save"...

Re: Backup error (update)

Petko,

I get External Exception E06D7363 when unprotecting the notebook, followed by backup error: "An error occurred while trying to backup notebook." So, essentially I am not able to unprotect the notebook.

Is there a way to disable backup temporarily?

Backup error (update)

Update : I spoke too soon. External exception E06D7363 do occur and they are occurring almost every minute, which is a major disruption. Just before they appear, a message flashes in the bottom left hand corner: "Compacting <notebook>" so it appears that the exceptions are happening when t...

Selecting a line in text editor

In version 6, it used to be able to select an entire line in the text editor by clicking on the left hand margin. It is useful for re-formatting. In version 7, you have to select it manually by dragging through the entire line. Is it possible to bring back the old way?

Re: Web clipping

I am using v. 7.0.5 and Windows 10, and also have a subscription to the NY Times, but my captures are almost instantaneous. I have had a mixed experience with the aspect ratio of images captured that Jon mentions. Torrey, how do you "capture" an article from the web (for example, NYT as y...

Resolved the blank Excel worksheet issue by "repairing" Office 2016. Details of how to do it are here: https://support.office.com/en-us/articl ... b40c5bb88b

Re: Embedded Documents

I deleted the .xls and .xlsx file extensions from the list in Options > Browser. Now, View and Edit links are back. But when I view or edit, only a BLANK Excel worksheet opens.

Re: Location of Embedded Documents

I am experiencing a problem with regard to viewing and editing embedded Excel files. Due to persistent Windows 10 "blue screen of death" presumably caused by a faulty RAM, I replaced the RAM, reformatted my C drive and reinstalled Windows 10 and MyInfo 6. All my data including My Topic fol...

Embedded Documents

Can the default file location for embedded documents (attachments such as Excel spreadsheets) be changed? It's not one of the locations listed under Toos > Options > Save that can be modified? Where are they saved by default? Edit: Ok, I just saw the earlier post discussing "attachments" a...

Re: Problems with USB reliability

Yes, there's a way. Install the portable version in a folder (say, "MyInfo 6 Portable") on your PC and laptop just as you would install it on a USB drive. That is, instead of choosing the USB as your installation location, choose a folder on your hard drive. You can then use it as portable...

Re: Search and replace

Can you replace your line return symbols (\line) with \par and see how it shows up in MI after saving the document in MI?
