I have on container-note that contains 3 project-notes.
I would like to:
show the names of the 3 project-notes in $Text of the container-note and
would love to have the names (within $Text of the container-note) being automatically linked to the respective 3 project-notes.
In other words: I’d like to create a rule that automatically creates Table of Contents-entries in $Text of an container-note of any project-note that will be added while working within the container-note.
Devonthink, for example, has the feature “Creating Table of Contents” of any beforehand selected items.
In Tinderbox, it would be cool:
to have this feature, too, and
even better: having a rule in the background updating this Table of Contents as new items (here: new project-notes) will be added.
Note that, in the left pane, you already have access to a list of the children of each note, and that clicking on one of those children will let you visit that note.
I get your point, @eastgate. But I’d prefer to have it working the way I described it above - since monitoring a lot of dashboard-notes in Map-View I’d prefer it to not having to switch every time to Outline-View in order to being able to “click on those children”.
And then I do remember having read a cool sentence … somewhere:

So true, isn’t it, and that’s why desperately needed!
I have a similar wish right now as useful to summarise contents of children in the container $Text fields. I can get close to the desired behaviour by collecting all the URL of the notes using the $NoteURL attribute and a stamp along the lines of
