Note properties: Tree settings

On this tab sheet you can specify tree-related settings for:

1. Active note, if you have opened the dialog box by pressing F4 or using the "Note properties" command, and if the active note is a tree-type note, or

2. All tree-type notes that you will later create in this or any other KeyNote file, if you have opened this dialog box by pressing F6 or using the "Default settings" command.

When editing properties for an active note which is a "simple editor" note, this tab sheet will not be visible.

Default name for new tree nodes

for active note: specifies the default name for all new tree nodes you will add to the tree in active note

as default: specifies default name for all new tree nodes you will add to trees in all newly created notes

TIP: The string can contain special "tokens" which KeyNote will automatically replace with values. This allows you to partly automate the naming of nodes. For instance, current date or time can be automatically added as part of the node name when creating the node. Click the [?] button to display a dialog box listing available tokens and their meanings.

Add sequential number to names of new nodes

for active note: if enabled, whenever yu add a new node to the tree in active note, the number of the node will be appended to its name. For instance, if the tree already has 5 nodes, the next node you create will be automatically named "New node 6" (assuming that you specified "New node" in the "Default name for new tree nodes" field, above.)

as default: preselects the option for trees in all newly created notes.

Show node-level icons in tree

for active note: displays or hides node icons in the active note tree

as default: preselects the option for trees in all newly created notes.

TIP: You can quickly show or hide tree icons by selecting the "Show icons in tree" command from the "View" menu.
