It’s good to know that cmd-m works, though it only works when the sorter itself has focus (not global).
Although that is the case when you just open the sorter some of the time, it isn’t all of the time (say, you open the sorter twice, the second time it will no longer have the blinking cursor can’t be minimized).
It’s not the worst thing in the world, but I’m just making a suggestion.
I’d personally prefer, and would suggest, just having the global hotkey toggle opening and closing.
A bit off the original topic, but I’d also love a global “Show Groups” as well.
Again, neither are essential, though I’ve basically been hacking it through creating macros and scripts to make them “global.” It would be a much faster process with less windows flashing in and out of focus if these were both global functions.
Giving the context I’m speaking from, basically, I love all of the functionality in DEVONThink but want data entry and capture to be as easy as say, Yojimbo, makes it.
The sorter is an interesting concept, though it doesn’t autopopulate and you can’t just put all the groups into it (without it taking up an ungodly amount of screen real estate). Show groups seems like a good intermediary to me.
With show groups and take notes easily accessible, Yojimbo really has nothing on DEVONThink.
