Workflow with multiple attachments

Open zoechi opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

It seems if I add notes to one of multiple PDF files attached to one org file, all notes are stored in the org file without additional information which attached PDF they belong to.

If I first open the attachment and then org-noter, I get asked where to store the notes. Because I don't want to store it in the attachments directory (~/Org/data/4c/...) the suggested paths are not helpful. I had expected to at least get a file in the org-noter-search-path suggested, but that's not in the list.

What workflow or configuration setting would you suggest for this situation?

I'm new to org-noter. I searched quite a bit, but couldn't find an answer. Thanks in advance.

with papers for which I want to also read the supplementary info, I just create a new subheading in my notes file that has a different NOTER_DOCUMENT property, pointing to the other pdf. This just allows me to create two independent sessions for this one "document".
