Upgrade StorageArranging notes into a writing outline
Hello all,
I think I may be missing something, but so far I've not been able to assign an arbitrary order to my notes (at least without renaming them, which is an ugly hack). I like to organize my notes into an outline from which I write, and of course this means that notes from many sources are mixed at random. However, Zetoro seems to insist that all notes from a particular source be bunched together, and it only allows sources to be sorted by pre-defined criteria such as title, date of creation, etc. By the way, the tagging system is too cumbersome for my purpose; I want to be able to drag and drop notes into whatever order I will use them in my paper. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Kent

And this is what is on the F A Q page:
How do I back up my Zotero library?
How can I access my library from multiple computers? Can I store my Zotero library and associated files on an external drive?
I have bibliographies in Microsoft Word documents, PDFs, and other text files. Can I import them into my Zotero collection?
Why doesn't Zotero work with other browsers like Internet Explorer or Google Chrome?
Why don't I see a Zotero icon in the address bar while viewing a web page?
How do I add an edited volume or a book chapter?
Where does Zotero store my references and notes?
Can I save a page that does not have a Zotero icon in the location bar at the top of my Firefox window?
I have a question about Styles
