How To Series, Remarkable: Associate A Notebook With A Document

[@zubairakbar9937]

You are putting much more effort in selling their product than they themselves. Nice tip 👍🏼

[@cobeyguy5532]

I m gonna do this! Great tip. One thing I've been doing, that I will combine with this: For longer or more specific notes... I will write my note on the PDF, so I can reference and/or quote what I need from the pdf. Then I cut my note and paste it into my notebook. :)

[@garkeinen7034]

I thought about writing a program on PC that would put a blank page every other page or so that would be run before transfering it to reMarkable. Assuring that you'd always have enough space for your notes even with densly written or packed documents

[@ChristiaHall]

Great idea!

[@cobeyguy5532]

@@garkeinen7034 installing "Remarkable Hacks" allows you to swap back and forth between two documents/PDFs by swiping down on the screen with two fingers!

[@alanspence1716]

This is a very useful series, thank you for making it. Most of the reservations people have about the reMarkable are easily overcome and take very little time, and you’re showing how! I really appreciate the excellent production quality of your videos.

[@dierlammart]

Hey, super! That's exactly what I need! By the way, your Videos are great!

Svaka čast Vojo, za sve klipove i ovoliki trud koji si uložio u sve ove analize i trikove sa gedžetima. Pratim te i sve u vezi s ovim uređajem već neko vreme i jedva čekam da i ja dobijem Remarkable, koji je odložen nažalost skroz do novembra. Uglavnom, samo napred, nadam se da ti se ovoliki trud isplaćuje nekako. Ako ne, samo je pitanje vremena kad će nove ideje da ti se jave. Baš kvalitetno i temeljno radiš sve!

[@MyDeepGuide]

Hvala puno! :)

[@beniguet]

Thanks for this workaround. In the current software version, that you did not have at the time you made the video, there is now a "drag two fingers from the top" gesture, which brings up recently opened documents. Doing this, instead of closing the doc with a one finger drag, avoids having to move documents to the same folder or mark them as favorites.

[@frankboddy2882]

You can also associate documents in different folders temporarily by marking them all as Favourites (star) , and following Voja's instructions :)

[@lazyman1011]

Nice guide series! Until my batch8 arrives I'm a pro on it thanks to your guides:)

[@ChristiaHall]

Batch 8 here too! It'll my first one.

[@lazyman1011]

@@ChristiaHall Same here, I also have no other pen with screen device.

[@ChristiaHall]

@@lazyman1011 How excited are you? I can't contain it.

[@lazyman1011]

@@ChristiaHall I'am not excited at all, because I am still fighting with my self if it is the right device for so much money. Also the delivery is so late, I'am more trying to not think about it.

[@ChristiaHall]

@@lazyman1011 I understand. It depends on what needs it will meet for you. For me it's perfect. I don't really need the features that others are talking about that it is lacking. I am more about the writing and brainstorming experience, without losing anything, keeping it sync'd on the cloud and to my phone. It'll be nice to wake up in the morning and reach for my notebooks instead of my phone and start processing my ideas and dreams, research, etc. again.

[@keithwolf1977]

This was extremely helpful!! Now I only have to wait 5 more batches to try it out! ;) Keep up the great work and education on this product.

[@PanosAnomioum]

That's nice to know. You can name this folder just for writing notes and when you complete with the document you move it to the main folder you want and then you fill the notetaking folder with the next document you want to work.

[@hogleripley]

Very helpful; thank you.

[@virginielloydecrivain]

C'est simple, tellement pratique ! merci !

[@qwertyboguss]

Thanks for this tip, it's a nice gesture :)

[@peggywells8581]

Thanks for the good instructions. Is there a way to insert individual pages between folders and notebooks? How do you do it?

[@mohammedsaid7763]

What a great idea! Golden thoughts!

[@HusoBasti]

Great tip!

[@CookieMonsterPL]

Brilliant idea, thanks!

[@Lilli_Jay]

That's neat. Thank you for that video.

[@HusoBasti]

Something I've noticed while testing your solution is that we don't necessarily need to put the document and notebook under the same folder. It also works if we add both on favorites, and open the document / notebook from the favorites menu. Did you test that solution? The shortcuts work there as well!

[@n3xxus_656]

Thanks a lot, nice tip :)

[@adeodata6364]

That was cool, thanks! :-)

[@carlos.deoliveirafilho]

amazing!!! you should share a final exported file in pdf.. never found one example of it.. just to see how is the final file.. thank you for the reviews!

[@Genegenedtb]

Any help in finding the serial number on remarkable 2?

[@jessnyus]

Great tip! Thanks!

[@latinajadealberto7853]

Great tip ! thanks, more pleasure :)

[@NecroDomoEPI]

I'd love a split view like in the Onyx, but I guess that's wishful thinking if they cannot even get a fast enough page transition with just a single book being displayed.

[@forpascal5890]

I saw the company Einkpads.com proposes apps for the ReMarkable. What do you think of this offering? Why would we need this?

[@ChristiaHall]

Thanks for the tip! Are you able to select and copy text from the document and paste it into the notebook?

[@MyDeepGuide]

Unfortunately, no.

[@jips123]

Good tip!

[@yazdansyed8319]

Appreciate it! Thank you ;)

[@emanuelmaiavet]

Supernote make a score with the dedicated swap sensible bar.

[@MyDeepGuide]

Well and the ability to actually have directly associated notes and a split screen function. Far more superior.

[@lymancopps5957]

An elegant solution to this would be a feature to toggle and hide layers. You could toggle between several different markup contexts. This feature would be so easy to add. Most of the code is already there.

[@MyDeepGuide]

Yeah, layers are already there in the document, however it's not possible to export a marked up document with the base layer hidden, unfortunately.

[@PooleyX]

Wouldn't it be easier to create a layer on document page and write your notes on that?

[@MyDeepGuide]

Yes, if you want the notes to be a part of the document. However, people often want a separate notebook where their notes are, and it's not possible to export the document with the background (document) layer hidden. Also, often times, you won't have physical room where to write your notes on a normally filled up document page.

[@frankboddy2882]

@@MyDeepGuide there is a workaround to hide a layer when exporting, which is to insert a "white layer" above the layer you wish to hide. Messy, but effective, I've done it myself.

[@emanuelmaiavet]

Is there possible mark a text from a document, copy and past it?

[@MyDeepGuide]

Handwritten notes yes, parts of the document, no.

[@emanuelmaiavet]

@@MyDeepGuide are there any other device capable copy-past from document?

[@etienneportail5122]

Thanks for all the good content! It is very useful, and I continue to hope that you are independent and that the only ‘bribes’ you get are maybe a few gadgets to test from the manufacturer.. Apparently, the software of the reMarkable 2 is not at the same level as the hardware.. In your opinion, what are the chances that the software will be significantly updated with new possibilities (e.g. the missing function you point out in your video)?

[@MyDeepGuide]

I don't know yo be honest. These missing features have been missing for 3 years, and apparently a calligraphy brush (cool as it may be) seems to be a bigger priority than standardized and more complete functionality of the device. Do I think they have the capacity and capabilities to fix all of those issues, absolutely. Do I think they will? Absolutely no idea. It's equally plausible to me that they continue ignoring their users and just do their thing, or they could turn around and consider the benefits of actually listening to the customer concerns.

[@emanuelmaiavet]

Voya if you gonna sell your Rm1 I would like buy it. Thanks for yours videos

[@tinyentropy]

Why do you keep your reservation for a Remarkable 2? I mean, you see all it’s limits plus you went through all that pain already with the Remarkable 1 - which you could stick with as a cheaper alternative.

[@MyDeepGuide]

Could you elaborate what you mean that I "keep my reservation"? I'm not sure I understand what you mean? EDIT: oh, you mean pre-order? If that's the case, then it's because it absolutely kicks ass as a writing device. I don't know of anything that comes even remotely close to it as a direct paper replacement.

[@tinyentropy]

My Deep Guide yes, sorry. Pre-order ;)

[@tinyentropy]

So... why?

[@mago3871]

Good to know.

[@muddassirmoinuddin3405]

Thanks. Great video. Voja, i'm not sure how I can reach you. I messaged you on instagram a few days ago but haven't received a reply. Do let me know if you have a preferred mode of communication. Thanks :)

[@MyDeepGuide]

Hello, I receive and keep receiving a lot of messages on a lot of different platforms. Some I manage to get to, some I don't. I've found your message and answered on Instagram :)

[@Ace_Of_Bace]

It would be better if they would have it like Kindle where you can make a note by holding down a word and it gave you the option.

[@MyDeepGuide]

Well, anything would be better than nothing :) This is a simple workaround the fact that reMarkable doesn't have any of those options.

[@Ace_Of_Bace]

@@MyDeepGuide Did you see the job announcement I left in a message in the group for you?

[@7darkgames764]

Cool

[@garkeinen7034]

Couldn't you simply use the "recently"-button?

[@MyDeepGuide]

Which recent button?

[@cpaco1]

two gestures or three gestures? because many times you have had to repeat the gesture of lowering your finger, because it did not respond to the first time. hummmmmm

[@MyDeepGuide]

Gesture detection is not a command. It's two gestures: 1. Swipe down to go back 2. Tap to open a document/notebook

[@cpaco1]

@@MyDeepGuide ok

1:45 only once, 2:11 once but in 2:13 twice , 2:26 twice, 2:32 twice, But it doesn't matter..., disculpa no molesto mas.

It seems that Remarkable 2 is really great hardware, but the software is the detractor. Remarkable needs new software.
