4.1 - Double-clicking nouns in the Statements List
As you use MindModel, you'll often find yourself browsing the Statements List.
The Statements List is the list at the bottom of the Model Window.
Here's a picture of a typical Statements List.
As you're reading this Statements List, you realize that you want to know more about Dale Ritcey, the subject of the first statement in the list.
The quickest way to find out more about Dale Ritcey is to double-click on "Dale Ritcey" in the Subject column of the list. Remember to double-click directly on "Dale Ritcey". Don't double-click on the column header above or the statement below.
The following picture shows where you should double-click. You are aiming for the area inside the red rectangle. The red rectangle doesn't appear on the MindModel screen. It's just there in this picture to show you where to double-click.
Once you've double-clicked on "Dale Ritcey", MindModel will put "Dale Ritcey" in the Nouns List, at the top of the Model Window. You can then double-click on "Dale Ritcey" in the Nouns List to find all statements for Dale.
Power-User Tip: Before double-clicking on "Dale Ritcey" in the Nouns List, you may want to use the "Clone Model Window" command in the Windows Menu. Doing so will open another Model Window. You can double-click on "Dale Ritcey" in this new Model Window, leaving the old Model Window intact. This way, you'll retain the contents of your original Statements List with information on Allison Morales.
This same double-clicking feature works in the Object column and the Prepositions column of the Statements List.
The following picture shows where you would click to add "Microsoft Excel" or "Denise Santos" to the Nouns List.
