Could you suggest how to create an everyday writing counter.
(I’ve found an old topic about this, but I can’t make codes from there work).
I would like to create a container that can count how much symbols added in containers on current day.

Easy enough!
Two steps:
-
Write an agent that collects today’s additions. The query might be as simple as
$Created==date("today")if by “today” you mean “this calendar day” and not “the last 24 hours…” -
Give the agent a rule that sums the number of characters in its children:
$MyNumber = sum(children,$TextLength); $Subtitle=$MyNumber;.
I personally think $WordCount is more useful than $TextLength, but either will do!

Fascinating! Thank you very much!
Also, if you have writing targets, take a look at the Dashboard concept and see Note progress bars.
The general idea used in the above links above can be used in the narrower context of the daily total, in terms of making the calculated number more easily seen in the vbiew pane.
