This request is for DEVONnote and DEVONthink … because I use them both.
I would like to have an option in Preferences that would allow me to choose a Single Window Mode. I work exclusively on a PowerBook, and because of the screen size, would prefer not having multiple windows opening on top of one another.
I mostly work in Note Pad view. When I double-click a folder, the application presents the contents of that folder in a new window. I would prefer that the application present the contents of that folder in the original Browser Window. I would then navigate back with a "Home" or "Back" button in the Toolbar, a Menu selection, or a Keyboard shortcut.
This would be similar to what’s called “Hoist” in outline programs like OmniOutliner and Circus Ponies NoteBook. I like working this way. It removes from view all other folders and documents … allowing me to focus only on the folder (project) contents I need to work with at that time.
Or … instead of having an option in Preferences for Single Window Mode, you could have Toolbar/Menu/Keyboard choices for "Hoist" and "Un-Hoist".
Is this possible?
