Automate Logos (Notes) with Powershell

Note Automation

Creating Notes from a Template could be useful in some situations. I created this powershell solution to do just that. I tried to keep the implementation as simple as possible.

1. Download and extract all files in AutoNotes.zip file to one directory
2. Drag the "Sample Template.vbs" into Logos to create a Button on the ToolBar
3. Create an empty Note Document
4. Make sure the Active Panel is the Note you created
5. Click the Button you created
6. It will create 7 Notes from the Template

This is what the sample script will generate:

Your own Template

To create your own template:

1. Make a copy of "Template1.ps1" and save it with any name
2. Edit the content of the new file
3. Make a copy of "Sample Template.vbs" and save with a new name
4. Change the "tmp" variable to point to the copy of "Template1.ps1" file you modified
5. Drag and drop the vbscript file to create a button in Logos
6. Create an empty Note Document
7. Make sure it's the Active Panel
8. Click the Button you created

System

• Win 10
• Powershell  5 (10586)
• Logos Bible Software 6.8 (6.8.0.0049)

Notes

I used Keyboard shortcuts to Toggle Bold, so please do not do anything until the template is complete. I'm investigating to use TogglePattern.Pattern.Invoke on all buttons in the Notes Panel.

The syntax for Template creation is in the "Template1.ps1" file.

Enjoy - and please inform me of any bugs
