Editing a writing using slicing (sliced text editing)

It is often more comfortable to write when there is more text from the same writing visible, as this reduces memory load. In the sliced text editing view a writing is automatically split into several parts at the points where the subtitle is either bold, type of "Header 1" or type of "Header 2". Other two choices are to use empty rows or rows having only two minus characters for points to split at (will be added back to a writing at the time of saving).

Unlike in the picture, such a visual slicing can be done from primary and secondary points. This can be useful e.g. at the phase when one is just preparing to write something and want to keep a large amount of already written text quickly and visually presented. Also useful when there are lots of subtitles like e.g. in a writing that acts as a link directory. There are a few buttons to adjust the height and width of these slices.

If images or other attachments have been attached to the writing, they remain unchanged on save, even if they are not displayed to indicate that they are attached to it. Just a reminder: attaching differs from including. The placeholders stay where they were if they aren't removed while editing text.

If the text content is in a plaintext or a Word file, it can dropped to a "slice" at the point where the cursor is at that moment. The order of these "slices" can be changed manually by first selecting the "moving slices" mode and then moving them as desired. The "slices" can be reversed by using one of the dedicated buttons, which is useful, for example, if user have written things in chronological order but want them in the reversed order.

Editing all the writings of a writing collection (lots of text editing)

Another alternative way of editing text is to use the "lots of text editing" view. It allows to glanze writing collection's writings with less effort and there are a few buttons to adjust the height of these slices. In this view there is a "Show writing particulars (images)" button, which makes the catalog images in writings appear as thumbnails at the end of the writings. Other particulars are not shown, but they are kept in writings even when saving and the quicklook functionality is usable (hovering the pointer over a placeholder). This is one of the views that has a "Stickyness" switch, which allows certain part of the view to remain roughly in its place when the page is scrolled vertically.

Not all writings displayed in this view are loaded at once, but as with the lazy loading technique used for images, writings are loaded and when it is time for them to appear. By using the "Stickyness" button to keep the left-hand side of the view in place while scrolling, one can easily edit or write hundreds of writings.

In both of these views, instead of listing writing collection's writings, they can be listed by writing finding group description for which links can be accessed via the search view.

Editing writings of a whole project (kanbanish text editing)

At one point, a third-party idea management application changed its visual appearance in such a way that it no longer felt so enjoyable to use it, so it was decided to try and see if the publishing application could also have a Kanban-type view. This means that ideas can be moved from column to column (e.g. backlog, ongoing and completed ones). Tags can be used to add something to classify these ideas. In practice, a column contains writings from a writing collection, but as in the lots of text editing view, they are loaded "lazily" (just before when should appear). This view is not specifically intended for managing intentions and ideas, but has simply been given such name because of its similarity. Writings are moved from one collection to another as soon as the drag'n'drop ends. The order of writings of a writing collection can be based on availability time or position, which is selected in the fine-tuning view for writings.
