Exploring and Finding

These topics help you move around a brain and find things in it. They cover the Plex and its layouts, the other ways to view a brain, the windows and panels you can arrange, the quickest ways to go back or return to favorite thoughts, and searching.

• The Plex and Its Layouts — Read the Plex, choose a layout, expand and sort its thoughts, present it full screen, and change how it draws thoughts.
• Views and Windows — Switch between the Plex, Cards, and Tree, arrange the split between the Plex and the content area, float content and tools, and use TheBrain on a phone.
• Getting Around — Go back and forward, revisit recent thoughts, jump to pinned thoughts and the home thought, and open brains in tabs and windows.
• Searching — Find and create thoughts from the search box, narrow or widen a search, search the web, build reports, and fix the search index.
