Comments on: Next Actions to Go http://www.activityowner.com/2006/12/30/next-actions-to-go/ Implementing GTD for personal and team productivity using MindManager, ResultsManager, and GyroQ Wed, 07 Jan 2009 01:16:48 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.5 By: ActivityOwner http://www.activityowner.com/2006/12/30/next-actions-to-go/#comment-402 ActivityOwner Sun, 11 Feb 2007 13:20:40 +0000 http://www.activityowner.com/2006/12/30/next-actions-to-go/#comment-402 Hi The "cna" GyroQ tag takes care of opening your daily actions map and its "next action" branch for you. The generic approach would be to have a tag that copies the currently selected MindManager topic and the subtopics displayed below it. This can be done using a subset of the tag above: {run:macro:'activedocument.selection.copy'; notes:'_today_ _time_':add; notes:'_clipboard_':addline; clipboard:'_notes_';} You need to expand the subtopics of the selected topic to the extent that you want them to be included. For some destinations (e.g. notepad), you can just do the copy/paste manually, but for most others (e.g. gmail), the above macro is useful. I went ahead and added it to the tag library as "clp". Hi

Adding date/time to the top is a good idea. To do that you would just replace the notes line: notes:'_clipboard_'; with notes:'_today_ _time_':add; notes:'_clipboard_':addline; I've incorporated this into the tag in the library.
