In JXCirrusDiary, it is possible to create entries anywhere in the tree. In reality, though, you problably have a couple of common places where you want to create lots of entries. For example, you might have a list of jobs for the month, and most of the new jobs are going to end up there.
Bookmarks provide a shortcut way of creating jobs in one or two
standard
locations... If you want to provide a shortcut to your monthly
task list, just
mark it as a bookmark, then you can use on the main page to create a
new task there
without having to find it in the tree.
Any entry can be used as a bookmark as long as it can have child entries. If you have an entry that allows you to have child tasks, and you mark it as a bookmark, then it will be available to the Add Task function. If you have an entry that allows you to have child journal entries, and you mark it as a bookmark, then it will be available to the Add Journal function (etc etc).
Setting them is easy:
This entry will now be able to be used as a bookmark. If you end up with too many bookmarks, then you can switch them off by unticking the check box.
There are 2 ways to use them:
These options for each of the entry types (Tasks, Appointments, Journal entries, People and Addresses) are only available if there is a bookmark in the tree that allows children of that type. For example, if there are no bookmarks that allow child entries which are people, then you cannot use the Add Person function.
If you have just one bookmark of that type, pressing Add ... will create that entry straight away. If there is more than one bookmark, you will have to pick the one you want to use.
