(3) Since TB10 now provides nested tags, you might also be able to use these nested tags to further refine the thought types recommended in option #2 above. This would essentially group the children into collections that are all still visible, but sitting in distinct groups, under the original parent. (2) Instead of using a container thought to create a new generation of children, use thought types (with distinctive icons and/or colors) to sort the large collection of children under their original parent - and then set TB to display thoughts by types. This would allow you to maintain the parent/child relationship and then, when desired, view the smaller subset/collection (1) Use the intermediate parent (container) thoughts to gather the children into collections, but also keep the original parent/child connection. Again, Outline View comes close but it doesn't show all the songs in one place. I'd prefer just linking the song to the album which is linked to the performer and then click on the performer to view all the songs from all albums by that performer. How are you dealing with organizing, selecting and displaying various levels/categories of connected thoughts?Įdited: I realize that multiple levels of thoughts are a fundamental aspect of TheBrain so it seems like I'm asking "How do you use TheBrain?"īut, geographical locations (especially countries of origin) are used in many contexts and I'm having a hard time organizing thoughts in TheBrain to maintain and view connections to those locations.įWIW, there's a similar problem with performer/albums/songs: I want to know which songs were recorded by a performer and which songs are on an album by that performer but I don't want to connect every song to the performer and to the album. The problem is worse if there are several levels below the parent thought. Outline View is better at displaying deeper-level relationships but it is difficult to work with if there are many child thoughts. If I create "container thoughts", then I can easily view a subset if I start from "France", but the connection to France is not as obvious if I'm starting from the child thought. performers, creative artists, historical figures, sports stars) but those are just more levels of the same problem. It gets even more complicated when considering different kinds of famous people (e.g. I could connect all of them directly to "France" but then I have no easy way of displaying, say, famous people from France. If I create categories or "container thoughts" below the parent thought and then link child thoughts to each category, I lose the direct connection to the parent thought.įor example, I have "France" as a thought and I have many related thoughts: regions, cities, famous people, historical events, companies, and various products from France. If I link all the thoughts directly to the parent, it's not easy to view subsets of child thoughts. In my megabrain, I have several thoughts with many different kinds of child thoughts.
