Attaching color-coded notes to specific words

I work a lot in Hebrew and English. I like to attach color-coded personal notes to certain words and phrases. As I attempt to attach a note symbol to a particular word or phrase, the note DOES APPEAR; often in the wrong place. Sometimes it places itself at the beginning of a verse and sometimes with other words that are not relevant to my study.

Does anyone know if it's possible to drag and drop my notes from one word or phrase to another word or phrase in either Hebrew or English? A DRAG and DROP feature would be nice to have so that I can attach my created notes to exact words and/or locations in the relevant verse.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Avinoam,

Here's what is probably happening to you. When you right-click to create a note, there's three possible selections on the top right-hand side of the context menu--

The top one is called "selection." If you create a new note (at the bottom of the left-hand side) while selection is highlighted (in this case, "Jesus") then the note will be attached to the selection (i.e., Jesus).

However, if the third one down, "reference," is highlighted (i.e., Luke 3:23), then the note will be attached to the entire verse and will appear at the beginning of the verse.

Is this what is happening to you?

Absolutely, right on target. That was the problem. Thanks so much!

Still, is there any way possible to drag and drop these little color-coded notes that I create, if I want to link some related concepts?

You can't drag them but you can link them.

Below I have created a demo note linked to the word "love" in 1 John 4:7

If I want to link this same note to the word "love" in v9 I can select the word in the text (outlined in red) and then move my cursor to the top right of the note which will cause a dropdown button to appear (outlined in blue)

Clicking the dropdown button gives me a number of options - you need the "Edit Attachment points" one

Click "Attach to current selection"

which results in the note being attached to this second instance of the word love

Repeat this as required and click "Done" when finished

Does this give you what you want?
