Chapter 7: Working With Actions; What Are Actions - IBM TransNote User Manual

Working with Actions

What are actions?

In the Getting Started Guide and in Chapter 1 of this book, you
learned how to mark words as a Keyword, To Do item, or
Message on the digital notepad.
This chapter explains how to mark actions in Ink manager Pro
and how to create lists of your actions to locate pages and follow
up on tasks:
• What are actions?
• Marking a Keyword, To Do, or Message on the computer
• Searching for a page
• Managing To Do items and Messages
• Narrowing the search
• Verifying Keywords
• Creating a Post-it Note
Ink Manager Pro supports the following actions:
• Keyword—Identify terms or topics that will help you search
for pages in your notes. Keywords appear in blue on the
screen.
• To Do—Identify items "to do," such as assignments or
action items. Create an To Do list and assign priorities and
due dates for yourself. To Do items appear in red on the
screen.
• Message—Identify words and phrases that you jot down
from phone conversations or voice mail. Create a Message
list and assign priorities and due dates. Messages appear in
green on the screen.
To change the default appearance (color and line width) of actions
on the computer screen, select File > Preferences, and then select
the Actions tab, described in Chapter 2.
