Sorter panel

DEVONthink Tips

I’m new to the software, but have started to find my way around it.

The Sorter Panel appeals to me, but I am having difficulty setting it up in a sensible manner. I understand that I have to drag a database from the main window to a blank square in the Panel, but the only icon that seems to allow me to do this is the “Inbox” (for each separate database). Sort-of fine, but… I now have three pigeonholes labeled “Inbox” in the Panel, where I would prefer to see “Global Inbox”, “Psychotherapy” and “Tinder”. I can remember which is which - that’s hardly taxing - but shouldn’t the labelling assist me more?

Should I be dragging something other than each database’s Inbox to the Panel?

Many thanks.

You can also drag any group to the Sorter and you can rename the inboxes of databases.

Great - thanks. Sorry - said I was new! I didn’t have any Groups set up, only Inboxes per database. I see how to achieve what I thought was going to be possible now…

Thanks for the swift reply.
