[chandler-users] 0.7.6 Featured Feature: Independent Detail View

[Mimi Yin]

Yay 0.7.6!

Andre has been testing out the new independent detail view for the  
past few weeks and wrote up a short description of how he's made use  
of it, which I turned into a blog post here:

independent-detail-view/

Try it out and let us know how you're using it....and as always,  
report back with bugs and other feedback.

Chandler 0.7.6 features the ability to keep multiple items open in  
separate windows.
You can access this feature by clicking on theicon in the upper  
right hand corner of the item details pane or by going to  
View>>Separate Item Details. (You can also select an item and hit  
Ctrl-I on Windows/Linux or Apple-I on Mac.)

User Andre Mueninghoff has already been making use of this new  
feature for a few weeks now, helping us track down bugs and providing  
feedback. Here are 2 uses he’s found so far:
Andre keeps two items open all the time in separate windows:

The first is something he calls a “Bucket” item:

>     …to capture those random thoughts and bits of information that  
> appear during the day.


The second is a GTD Projects List. Andre consults this list  
repeatedly throughout the day. In his words:

> This saves me the trouble of having to leave the Chandler item I’m  
> working with, find the GTD Projects List item, and then find my way  
> back to the original item.
