Moving text (sentences and paragraphs) within a text file

DEVONthink Tips
1

Hello,

I’d like to be able to move text (e.g., a paragraph block of text) up and down a line in my rich text documents in DEVONthink using keyboard shortcuts. The usage scenario is that I write out a series of sentences that I know to be true (arguments, evidence, implications etc), and then I quickly organize these lines or paragraphs. In Scrivener or OneNote I can hit a keyboard shortcut to shift the current line up or down, and so I can keep hit these keyboard keys to quickly sort the lines within a document.

I’m all in on DEVONthink (every app/all platforms), and I appreciate that it is vastly superior to OneNote and Scrivener (which I still use to write articles). But I’d really love to replicate these keyboard shortcuts in DEVONthink, even if that involves some kind of automator hack (which I’ve tried, unsuccessfully).

Thanks for reading.

Cheers,
Paul

This is not possible but the request is noted.

Thanks Jim. Would also be helpful for the quick reordering of lists etc (essentially any organized text).
Cheers,
Paul
