tag2find -FAQ - 0 views

  • We plan to have always a free version for homer users.
    • LeisHowI
       
      Oh. Going to get a paid version soon. Usually bad news. Limited capabilities.
  • The NTFS Change Journal is a mechanism provided by Microsoft's NTFS which records all activity on an NTFS volume
  • T2F relies on this log to update its database.

  • The NTFS Change Journal does not effect everyday's use, regarding performance
  • only known small performance implication known to the developers is, if you are deleting huge amounts of small files at once
  •  
    seems like there will be a paid version. Don't know what features free users will have. Last blog post was nov 2009 though.

  • date:2007.6 (June 2007)
  • viewed:
  • ...52 more annotations...
  • Valid words for size: tiny, small, medium, large, huge, ultra
  • size:
  • combine a viewed: query with top:, the query is based on views during that time.
  • top:views results:40 – show the top 40 based on views.
  • is:favorite
  • ~word – look for words that are similar to “word”. Works only in Fast Search and needs word indexing to be enabled
  • remove tags from images, first select them in the browser and open the tag list.
  • Tagging
  • Ctrl + T while viewing the image or having some images selected in the browser view.
  • If you open the tag list while the add tag box is open, you can add tags from the list by left clicking on them.
  • Separate multiple tags with commas
  • Add tags from the list to images by dragging them on images: left drag adds tags to one image, right drag will apply them to a group of images
  • Or, select a few tags and double click on one of them. This will view all images with all the selected tags.
  • Double click on a tag to view all images with the tag
  • added:
  • Deselect (Ctrl + Left click) the tags you want to leave to the images and press delete.
  • You can make aliases to tags by adding both tags and dragging the tags on each other in the list. The draggee will become the alias for the tag you drag the tag on. Every time you add the alias, it will actually add the original tag.
    • LeisHowI
       
      I don't quite get what it means, will have to test out. I suppose it means you can create fake tags, where they are simply placeholders for actual tags. I'm assuming you can do it with multiple tags as well?
  • Let’s imagine you have a screenful of untagged and tagged images. First, press Alt + T to sort images by tags. With the mouse, click on the left edge of the screen to open the file list. You should see a group of files in the beginning of the list marked as having no tags. Right click on the list to select a whole group of images, and press Ctrl + C to copy the files on the clipboard. Press Ctrl + N to open a new view and paste the images with Ctrl + V. Now you have a nice, clean workspace with no unwanted files.

  • press Ctrl + Shift + O to automatically sort all files into smaller subgroups
  • Adding complete directories
  • Use the included program dbtool to add directories recursively with any tags you like.
  • "c:\Program Files\Viewer2\dbtool" add "c:\my photos\kittens" cats cute. This will add everything in the specified directory and add the tags cats and cute to each image.
    • LeisHowI
       
      Nice function. Although a GUI interface would certainly make it easier. 
  • Automated tagging

      Imagine command "Deselect"
  • eature is experimental.
  • Synchronizing IPTC keywords and Viewer2 tags is disabled by default, because it physically modifies image files
  • enable it in the configuration by ensuring the option “Synchronize tags and IPTC keywords” is checked. Viewer2 will then tag every new image with IPTC keywords and set the IPTC keywords to the tags the image has in Viewer2
  • Ctrl + Shift + left drag: Add lasso selection to the selected images
  • Right click on filelist: Select group
  • Alt + C: Sort by color (press Alt + C multiple times to adjust fuzziness) Alt + D: Sort by date (press Alt + D multiple times to adjust fuzziness) Alt + G: Sort by group Alt + L: Sort by forced links Alt + N: Sort by name (press Alt + N multiple times to adjust fuzziness) Alt + O: Sort by original order (e.g. the order of images returned from a query, useful with top:views query) Alt + P: Sort by path Alt + R: Sort by resolution
  • Syncing tags and IPTC keywords
  • Ctrl + Shift + F: Find files with matching tags
  • Ctrl + I: Invert selection
  • Ctrl + O: Order selected images in one group Ctrl + Shift + O: Order images in groups
  • Ctrl + S: Zoom into all files (fit files on screen) Ctrl + Shift + S: Zoom into selected files
  • Delete: If tag list is not open delete selected files from the view, if the list is open the selected tags will be removed from the selected images
  • Ctrl + Delete: Physically delete selected files
  • Home: Zoom image to fit to screen End: Zoom image to original size
  • Inertia The inertia of everything, less means everything will be smoother but slower.
  • ShowDirectories Show subdirectories in the browser.
  • UseSpiral If set to 0, order images in a square, otherwise order images in a spiral.
  • IPTC into the files but they don’t show up in Picasa. Other tools, such as Exifer or IrfanView can display them
  • IPTC export works at least on some programs
  • doesn’t write IPTC back to the images when we set tags – is that by design?
  • (“Synchronize IPTC tags” needs to be checked on the “Database” page). That feature definitely exists but it’s not enabled by default.
  • not entirely sure if enabling the syncing will automatically write the tags that you have added earlier but either adding (or removing) any tag will trigger the IPTC update for the file. Or, you can use dbtool to sync manually (something like “dbtool exportiptc c:\Photos”).
  • a small tool that recursively parse the whole image repository to automatically assign tags would be nice.
  • The new dbtool does this automatically. You can simply add a file in a directory and the tags in the file are applied to all the subdirectories. It can also tag files based on the tags it sees in the directory names, so if you have the tags “2009″ and “holiday” in the system and a directory named “holiday 2009″, dbtool will apply both tags to the images in the directory.
  • Would it be possible integrate this new dbtool inside the “MSWindows explorer”?
  • It is possible to add any program in the menu, as long as the program takes command line arguments.
  • http://windowsitpro.com/article/articleid/13596/how-do-i-add-an-item-to-the-right-click-menu.html (not the best example but you’ll get the idea)

      Copied Over: How do I add an item to the Right Click menu? A. Follow the procedures below: Start the Registry Editor (REGEDIT.EXE)Expand the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT by clicking the plus signScroll down and expand the Unknown subkeyClick on the Shell key and right click on it.Select New from the pop-up menu and choose Key.Enter the name you want to be displayed, e.g. the name of the application. Click EnterRight click on the new subkey and click New. Again select Key and enter the name "Command" and click EnterClick on the newly created Command and double click on "(Default)"Enter the path and name of the executable with %1, i.e.d:\program files\savedit\savedit.exe %1Close the registry editorWhen you right click on a file the new entry will be displayed.
  • The command line would be something like “c:\viewer2 directory\dbtool.exe” iptcadd “%1″.
  •  
    Really long but sounds like it has tonnes of functions. As reviewed in freewaregenius, I think shortcuts will come in handy though you would really have to get used to it.

Manual for KeepNote: Note taking and organization - Documentation - 0 views

  • KeepNote offers a convenient debugging tool for when notes are not saving properly. You can open any note as a raw text file in the text editor of your choice. This is specified with the Text Editor helper application.
    • LeisHowI
       
      eg, using notepad++ instead to edit items. overriding the lack of language support or spellcheck currently.
  • Screenshots can be taken very easily in KeepNote using Ctrl+Insert. KeepNote uses helper applications to actually take the screenshot.
    • LeisHowI
       
      Since it asks for the launch link in the preferences. It works well with picpick as it runs with parameters as well.
  • Additional notes: To be specific, KeepNote expects the screenshot program to take a single command-line option: the output image filename.
  • ...45 more annotations...
  • filename is a tempfile managed by KeepNote
  • After the screenshot program finishes, KeepNote will un-minimize, attempt to read the saved screenshot, and insert the image into the currently open note. The tempfile will also be removed.
  • KeepNote maintains an index of each notebook to facilitate faster navigation and linking. This index is stored as a SQLite database and its file is located at your_notebook/__NOTEBOOK__/index.sqlite.
  • if you happen to create/modify notes outside of KeepNote (which is not guaranteed to be supported in all cases), you should let the index know about these changes by choosing the menu Tools > Update Notebook Index.
  • If you use backup software or a network filesystem with your notebook, you may experience performance issues with the index
  • If this becomes an issue, you can specify an alternative location for the index file (say a location on a local disk). To specify an alternative location, use the option Edit > Preferences > This Notebook > Alternative index location.
  • can use drag and drop in either the treeview or listview to rearrange your notes.
  • envision KeepNote being used in a research setting where you have notes that follow both journal (time-sensitive, linear organization, pictured on the left) and reference (time-insensitive, hierarchical, pictured on the right) styles.
  • istview also allows sorting by both creation time, note title, and manual sorting.
  • Another feature that I have focused on is image manipulation.
  • Notes are most valuable when you can easily access them. That means accessing your notes on multiple platforms
  • All notes are stored in UTF-8 HTML files and nested in ordinary folders on the file system. That means you can read your notes with nothing more than a web browser.
  • Portability.
  • KeepNote can easily save notebooks to a USB drive. The KeepNote application can also be installed to a USB drive, so that moves with the notes.
  • At this time KeepNote does store some user preference information in the Application Data folder, but this should not prevent using KeepNote in a portable way.
  • because KeepNote does not store any information in the Windows Registry
  • shortcut keys Ctrl+N (New Page) and Ctrl+Shift+M (New Folder).
  • KeepNote can store any file as an "attachment" to the notebook.
  • Autosave. Notebooks are automatically saved every 10 seconds. This interval can be changed or disabled in the Edit > Preferences menu.
  • Nesting in listview. Another subtle feature is that the listview can display nested folders and notes as well. The collapse state of folders in the listview is saved separately.
  • listview, you can sort notes by many criteria (e.g. title, creation time, modification time, etc) by clicking on the column headers.
  • For very large notebooks, a treeview (the left side of the window) becomes overwhelming, a problem I have run into with many other programs. In these situations, a listview (top portion of the window), becomes important.
  • none of the columns are activated for sorting, the listview goes into "manual" sort mode, which displays the notes as they appear in the treeview and allows you to drag and drop notes into any order you wish.
  • One very subtle but convenient feature is that the listview sorting is saved on a per folder basis
  • KeepNote also supports links between notes in a notebook.
  • Simply start a link with Ctrl+L or clicking the link button and start typing the name of a note. An auto-complete drop down list will appear allowing you to pick the note you wish to link to
  • Another way to create a link is to use copy-and-paste. First, select a note in the treeview or listview that you wish to link to and copy it (Ctrl+C or the menu Edit > Copy). Next, navigate to the note in which you wish to make the link, and paste into the text editor to create a link.
  • Note: note-to-note links will never break (unless you delete the target note). Feel free to rename a note or move it around. Links will still point to the right notes.
  • Custom note icons
  • Each note can have up to two icons associated with it: a normal icon and an optional open version of the icon. If the open version of an icon is set it will be used when the note is expanded in the treeview or listview
  • After you select a new icon, it will be added to the Notebook-specific Icons list for future reuse. A copy of the icon image is now stored in your notebook.
  • several options for images in their right click menu
  • Resize Image...
  • KeepNote will display the image at its new size, while keeping the original image file unaltered (original size).
  • Double clicking the image or choosing the View Image menu option will display the image at its original size in the image viewer of your choice.
  • feature is convenient for shrinking large images into thumbnails within your notebook.
  • Sorting.
  • Spell checking is available only on Linux and Mac OS X at this time
  • can add/change a keyboard shortcut to any menu option in KeepNote.
  • Simply place your mouse cursor over the menu item which you would like to customize and press your desired shortcut combination (e.g. Ctrl+I)
  • To remove a shortcut altogether, press Ctrl+Backspace
  • Backup and restore
  • Currently, the only format implemented is HTML
  • The hierarchy (as seen in the treeview) will be exported and all note-to-note links will be translated from KeepNote's format (e.g. nbk:///nodeid...) into relative file links that will work in all web browsers.
  • Helper applications are other programs installed on your computer that KeepNote can use to perform certain operations, such as image editing, web browsing, text editing, etc. These applications are chosen from the KeepNote Preference dialog,
