Curio 6.1 index cards video tutorial
Tuesday, October 13, 2009
Curio 6.1 with index cards has been released! And here's a quick video tutorial showing it in action:
An additional note is that if you select one or more index cards and copy them to the clipboard, or choose File > Export Selected Figures As > Text, you'll get a nice text output of all your notes which is great for importing into other applications.
Curio 6.1 includes another big feature for many of our customers: a new Decoration image well on the Flags inspector panel. Just drag-and-drop an image into that image well and it will appear as an adornment next to all your other figure flags. This makes it super-easy to quickly associate an image with another figure without needing to create a new custom flag via Curio > Preferences > Flags.
The key difference between a custom flag and a decoration? Custom flags are searchable in the Search shelf while a decoration is, er, simply a decoration. So definitely keep that in mind.
Anyway, Curio 6.1 has lots of other goodies (color pickers show the currently selected color, exported pngs/tiffs are transparent, smarter table cell pasting, tons of nasty bug fixes, etc) so please read the release notes to get all the nitty-gritty.
More features are coming so definitely stay tuned to our blog for the latest news. :-)

Excellent, just what I wanted. Thank you so much -- Curio just became even more useful.
Thank you for the video too, very clear and explanatory. :-)

Thanks for the Index Cards, but don't stop there! We need to be able to easily put them into piles, spread them and collapse them, sort them and record different sort orders. It would be nice too, if one could have the conceit of flipping them over and writing on the back. But a great start.

they need scroll bars. right now, the text just extends beyond their border...

The lack of scroll bars is on purpose, following the logic of limiting the scope in one card. You can follow this forums thread for all the details. Feel free to join in on the discussion in the forums!
