That Text for macOS

That Text App Info for macOS

That Text allows for quick data entry into text fields. Group text content into navigable entries to easily organize content. Click on a Nav Item to bring up previous text entries fast. Edit or reorder content using built-in context menus. Text entries can be shifted left/right to simulate a parent/child tree-like structure. A powerful Filter field allows for fast filtering of content. Filtering can be toggled between filtering by Text entry or Tree name.

Features:
- Editable navigation items.
- Stellar tree view to organize complex checklists.
- Great looking text fields that can be indented to form parent/child structures.

Instructions for app use:
1.) Launch app.
2.) Click + icon to create a new Navigation Item (Nav Item).
3.) Enter in a Nav Item name.
4.) Click newly created nav item.
5.) Main view loads. Click + icon in upper right to add new Tree Item. When pop up shows, enter a name.
6.) Click newly created Tree Item’s + icon. This creates Text fields for data entry.
7.) Type data into text fields. It auto saves content.
8.) Click move left/right arrows to adjust indent.
9.) Click ( - minus) icon to delete a text field. If text field has data, there will be a confirmation pop-up. If no data, the field is just removed.
10.) Right click on text field's buttons to right for context options. For example right-clicking on minus (-) button will show more options.
10.1) Right-click options: Insert New Text Above/Below will insert a new text field either above current right-click location or below. Indentation of inserted items will match current indent of currently right-click item.
10.2) Reorder will show a pop-up view where user can drag/drop entries around in whichever desired order is wanted.
11.) Toolbar Reorder button will perform a similar task as the text field Reorder; although it will only show Tree items in list and they will be reordered to desired order.
12.) Toolbar chevrons for collapse all and expand all, this affects only Tree items under current Navigation item - unless using the "All Items" navigation, then all Tree Items for all Navigation Items will either expand or collapse.
13.) Right-click context options for Navigation items for editing Nav Item name, Reordering list, or deleting.
14.) Filter field at bottom left of main view - clicking the filter icon will cycle between either filtering by Text data or by Tree Item name. Toggle icon to appropriate choice and type into filter field. Data is dynamically filtered. Be sure to clear the filter when complete - changing to another Navigation item keeps the Filter text and will still actively attempt to filter content.
15.) Max Height slider affects only Text fields that have a lot of text content in them (usually a few rows of text). Changing the Max Height slider will "cap" the text content to specified height, triggering the vertical scrollbar to become active.
