| BrainBox Hints & Tips

The current BrainBox design (version 12 | July 2021) is not integrated within TheBrain's plex. As a result, the contents within the BrainBox are not searchable, and cannot be added into TheBrain's selection box.

For this reason, it is important to periodically transfer the contents of the BrainBox into the plex.

• Click on the BrainBox to open it.
• Items within the BrainBox can then be dragged and dropped into the plex (as new thoughts) or onto any of the visible thoughts (as attachments).

Additionally you can open the BrainBox into a static window, which helps immensely when gardening multiple items within the BrainBox:

• Right click on the hamburger menu in the upper right corner of the BrainBox window
• Select "Open BrainBox in New Tab"
• Then click and drag this tab into a new (floating) window

Thank you, Pat McNamara, for this helpful tip!

Alternatively, you can use Quick Drop Thoughts as a complete alternative to TheBrain's BrainBox.
