as mind map user I like to jot idea with parent, children, sibling hierarchy.
I am not satisfied with the present method of creating the three above as need to do a lot of adjustments ex option+ enter to create a new sibiling then ,Shift+<, or Shift+> to adapt the sibiling as a parent or sub. As I am in a creative process would like a faster way to achieve this.
For long list of sibilings I resolved writing in plain text the list and then shift+V and jjjj to select the list and then i launch toggle-heading, but this does not work if I add myself spaces in the plain text.
Please do you know a fast way to open a parent/children/sibiling node, I see a shortcut could be a solution, but do not know if is a good idea because should combine more commands
Depending on what it is that you are looking for – and how you like to brainstorm – org-mode may not be the right tool for you.
The simplest way to think about it is: org-mode is for structured text. Brainstorming suffers from too much structure.
Yeah, I have a plain scratchpad.txt file that I open with C-c s for when I just need to jot something down, take quick notes, etc. Then later I can think about where to store what I just wrote, if I even want to at all.
I do that, but the file is still named .org :) Just write without headings, guys.
By the way, I just learned about
M-x remember-notes
. Can be used with org files. ;)as a mindmapper i would be totally fine with this way of working in org mode
