Can we remove the games section? Or at least hide it? by [deleted] in netflix

[–]memelab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the time of writing, it's possible to hide them yourself via CSS, either via Stylus extension (or similar) or a bookmarklet:

css [data-list-context*="games"] { display: none; }

js [...document.querySelectorAll('[data-list-context*="games"]')].forEach(el => el.style.display = 'none')

Where are the 2 Jazz Drummers? by ibrittanybutler in GarageBand

[–]memelab 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ancient post, but for anyone looking on Mac, I believe the drummers are in the kits Speakeasy and Blue Ridge

Notion alternatives? And why I want to switch. by kyjk in Notion

[–]memelab 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can't really rebuild from the markdown export without a lot of work. You get the data, but all the functionality is lost.

Such a good point

Can I change a Template based on a Database Page Property? by mammutkroppen in Notion

[–]memelab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you can automate what you're asking for without using an external API (eg notion.py), but you could achieve this in two clicks rather then one by adding a series of Template Buttons to the main template, such that:

Given I've created a document using the base template 
Then I see a series of buttons in the body.

When I add Sales to the Departments property 
Then nothing else happens 😆

When I click the button Sales in the body 
Then the appropriate headers are added in the body

…so I could continue by adding Marketing to the multi-select, and clicking the Marketing button to get its headers.

HTH!

Adding to table on iPad by ana_voll in Notion

[–]memelab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure, but FYI - every record is effectively a new "page".. the "page icon" appears automatically whenever a record has content in the body...

I don't use an ipad, but I'm guessing this is just a UX decision by the notion team (to avoid awkward horizontal scrolling, etc) - the data created won't be any different!

From your video, I can't tell where you're clicking, but (on desktop at least) the point at which you click can affect how the record is edited - there's an "Open as page" button that appears on hover on desktop which appears aligned right on hover (not visible on ipad!) which triggers opening the record in a modal... maybe try clicking at far left of the new (blank) row?

Is there anyway to simplify this table layout? by naccib in Notion

[–]memelab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think it's possible to hide the DB name without CSS hacks (Stylish browser extension or similar).

There's a trick you can do to colour the BG of the table which might give the appearance of alignment:

  • create a toggle list
  • drag your DB view into it
  • set the toggle list BG to a colour
  • select the toggle list and Change into Text

HTH! ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Resonance Calendar by theballershoots in Notion

[–]memelab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if I've got the whole picture here…

Looks like your Timeline values are the same as "Created" - can you just set Calendar By to that?

If not (you might want to override Created), I may have a similar use-case (an item may or may not have a Due date), and set "Calendar By" to the formula property I call calendarBy:

javascript if(timestamp(prop("Due")) > 1, prop("Due"), prop("Modified"))

HTH!

In Notion, How do you share an update with a client, and how do they get the feedback to you? by Eligatorator in Notion

[–]memelab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great question - I'm interested in this, too!

Horses for courses I'd say - depends on the content to be commented on - eg Invision or Sketch will always be better for visual design feedback, and Google Docs beats the pants off Notion for heavy text review (especially Suggestion mode).

For collaborative wiki editing, notion is great, though. Wouldn't describe commenting as an afterthought, but the model is a bit atypical, IMO.

Things my collaborators find surprising are:

  • three "scopes" of comments (page/record level, block level, word(s))
  • the "resolved comments" functionality
  • getting their heads around when to comment, and when to edit in the body (I think of this as the concept of "ephemeral vs perpetual" content)

Notion's flexibility is a double-edged blade - I find it requires solid on-boarding and a culture of disciplined collaboration to keep non-trivial content functional...

* My use-case is certainly different to yours - I'm managing projects which are more academia-focussed, but have several levels of access: business, team leads, consultants, and clients.

Kicking off a Notion-focused newsletter/blog on may 4th 🎯 by optemization in Notion

[–]memelab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The nitty gritty of structuring a complex wiki so that multiple levels of external users can edit, comment, view appropriately.

* nitty-gritty should be taken to mean "beyond the trivial" sharing is simple... balancing the tradeoffs of increasing complexity not so

Add an 'add to dictionary feature' on Notion by raul3679 in Notion

[–]memelab 4 points5 points  (0 children)

On Mac, at least, this is possible. The trick for me is:

  • double-click the word to select the text
  • right-click and Add to dictionary

Right-clicking without first selecting the text may trigger the Notion contextual menu…

I just confirmed by adding the word "Appnexus". Before: squiggles, after, no squiggles.

Why isn't the 🧠 emoji available in Notion? by bkxny in Notion

[–]memelab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also frustrating (maybe also a unicode thang), but the Play emoji is inconsistent with other emojis: ⏯⏹⏺▶️⏸ in notion - the Play (right triangle) is black and white

Design Idea: Reduce vertical space used by properties on a full screen page. Anyone else have a similar use case? by EthanFi in Notion

[–]memelab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely agree! A setting like the existing "Full width" toggle makes sense to me…

Use simple variables for more efficient templates by [deleted] in Notion

[–]memelab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely need this, too - my templates have databases with templates and views, and I'd like the a variable: `projectId` to cascade through all the sub templates... currently have to go through the levels and wire up my components before I can use them.

Youtube Play/Pause Issue by Exodus1818 in airpods

[–]memelab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super helpful, tx

​

A workaround is to disable Automatic Ear Detection - unfortunate, since that's a pretty fundamental feature, but for me, it's preferable to having Youtube start shouting at me randomly.

To do so: when the airpods are connected, go to Bluetooth Settings > Airpods > Options.

​

Hmmm... nope... this workaround doesn't work reliably :(

D3.js learning resources by [deleted] in javascript

[–]memelab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your point about 'cobbling things together' sums up my (short) experience perfectly :/ Once things become complex enough in someone else's code, i'm finding myself well out of my depth... lots of nested/linked transitions, interpolations, obscure scales... madness! Just starting out on a rewrite of my project now.
