The latest update of iThoughts HD (simply the best mind mapping app in my opinion) incorporates some additional buttons at the top of the standard iPad Keyboard which make editing an entry MUCH simpler.
The interface is simple and clean
On the Left Hand side there are buttons for:
- moving to the start of a word - press multiple times to move one word at a time.
- moving to the end of a word - again press multiple times to move along a sentance.
on the Right Hand side are little arrows for doing the same thing one character at a time.
Compared to the hassle of selecting and moving the cursor in the traditional way on an iPad (anyone else got fat fingers?) this is a huge productivity improvement. Any chance that Omni could licence and/or re-produce this keyboard addition in a near future update?
BTW - iThoughtsHD exports in outliner format (via a script) as a project into OF for the Mac. This approach can be very useful in 'first cut' project planning. Simply create the mind map on the iPad and then import it into OF for fine tuning and GTD.
