Missing TabsOutliner features for copy-paste and organisation of links #77

Open staalman opened 1 year ago

staalman commented 1 year ago

Description

Currently one can't copy sub trees across multiple instances of Chrome running on different machines. The clipboard content seems not to be used or interpreted when pasting in another Link-Map window. I regularly do a quick copy-paste of sub-trees between chrome instances running on different machines. It should be possible to simply copy a subtree from one Link-Map window, and paste it into a LinksMap window of another Chrome instance on another machine, especially as the multi-machine/account collaboration featured I requested before isn't implemented (yet... :-).

Copy-paste of structured content to the clipboard should be interpreted in the LinkMap window and copied to the currently highlighted Node in the tree.

Also, in TabsOutliner it is possible to open multiple Cloned windows of the tree, which greatly help in reorganising very large trees. This is undoable in one single sidepanel as one needs to scroll up and down all the time. Allowing >1 (so also more than 2) sidepanel clone-windows to be opened will greatly help reorganisation activities.

Your issue seems related to the missing TabsOuliner ability to drag and drop tree nodes to an external app that I raised back in April 2023 [Feature Request] Add the ability to drag and drop the nodes name and embedded hyperlink to an external app

There is a very unsatisfying/inefficient workaround using a "bridging" markdown app to get from Link Map to your desired app. I described that process in a further post to the issue https://github.com/GarinZ/link-map/issues/34#issuecomment-1521579876

I would like to use Link Map, but I use the missing feature a lot, so I'm stuck using TabsOuliner.

PS

Thanks for sharing the two additional features of TabsOutliner that I didn't even know were possible! Opening multiple cloned windows and copying sub trees across multiple instances is going to really help me get my TO trees better organized. Those are amazing features that I hope Link Map can someday implement.

FYI - Playing around with your shared TabsOutliner feature

Another way to organize nodes and links using TabsOuliner (and hopefully someday Link Map) on a single desktop device.

Wow. I keep looking at Link Map wondering if I should switch over, but every time I do, I notice something new about what TabsOutliner can do that nothing else can.
