I’m on the evaluation version of Tinderbox and tried to create a few notes in map view and realised that it is possible to control from which side a link leaves a node and which side of the target it enters. This pop-up was accessible via the round i icon visible when the source note is selected. However, this icon, as well as the icon to control the curvature and the placement of the curvature can easily be drawn behind other notes. I could only reach these icons by moving around other notes. In this case I wanted the notes to be lined up in a special way so having to move them to control the link also means I have to move the notes back, which is a bit fiddly and time consuming. Is there some other way to have these control icons been drawn a top other notes?
I don’t believe so. The icons have to go somewhere.
But, with the link’s source note selected the same Browse Links dialog can be opened via Cmd+Opt+L.
