- Right click on a scene to switch between the 3 views very fast. E.g. a right click on a scene in the chronological view shows the entries "Show in Book View" and "Show in Manage View". Not only the view is switched, it also scrolls to the chosen scene.
- Right click on a scene in the tree to show the chosen scene in one of the 3 views.
- Right click on a location's name in the tree and choose "New location". The country and city will now be filled in for you.
- On the tree, press the first letter(s) to jump to the desired character or location. This works on the sidebar tree as well as on the lists shown if you edit a scene.
- Want to know the age of a character depending on the scene's date? Move the mouse cursor over the character abbreviation label. The age is shown on the quick info window. If a character is dead, the reached age is shown marked with a "+".
- Want to see a location in Google Maps? In the tree, right click to a location and choose "Google Maps" from the context menu! The URL used for Google Maps can be set manually for those outside the USA. Open the preferences, select the tab "Internet" and enter the Google Maps URL of your country.
- Troubles with wrong characters (e.g. German Umlauts) after a CSV import in Word or Open Office? Choose "Unicode (UTF-8)" as character set.
- Most text fields have Drag and Drop support. To move text from Word or Open Office, just select it, then drag it to the desired text field and drop it. You can also move text the same way from one scene to another of course.
