New user here, a refugee from Evernote.
Now that I've imported all my Evernote notebooks into Joplin, I need to organize them. This turns out to be surprisingly tedious. I hope a future version can implement better ways to move notebooks around.
Here's the problem. I now have a flat Joplin database consisting of about 150 Evernote notebooks. In order to organize them into subnotebook collections ("stacks" in Evernote terminology) I must drag and drop each one individually. Often that means waiting while the list of 150 notebooks scrolls far enough to make the target notebook visible.
Given enough time and patience, I will eventually finish this tedious task. But you should realize that the time spent scrolling scales with the number, N, of notebooks. That means the total time to finish this task scales as the square of N. I pity the poor user who wants to organize, say, 500 or 2000 notebooks in this way.
I can think of at least two ways to improve matters. 1) Implement an option to select multiple files for drag-and-dropping. 2) Implement an option to move each notebook into a target parent notebook without drag-and-dropping (perhaps with right-click). Both ways would mitigate the long wait for scrolling during drag-and-drop.
Any thoughts from other users?
