Need to keep a useful passage without stopping to write it out? CintaNotes Portable turns selected or copied text into notes, then lets you organize and find those notes with tags and search.
Selected text becomes a note with Ctrl+F12
When a passage is selected in another application, press Ctrl+F12 to create a note from it. CintaNotes also lets you create a note from text on the clipboard. These capture options suit quick saves of excerpts, facts, and other text you want to refer to later.
The captured note includes a URL link to the original source. That gives the saved passage a way back to the page it came from, which is handy when you need to revisit its context.
Tags group notes without a folder plan
Apply tags to sort notes into topics such as work or personal projects. No folder structure has to be planned in advance: the collection grows around the tags you choose.
- Use tags to categorize saved text.
- Search the note collection when you need a specific passage.
CintaNotes Portable keeps the capture workflow compact
The program focuses on collecting and retrieving notes made from text. Its portable form is intended to run without a conventional installation, while clipboard capture and the Ctrl+F12 shortcut keep note creation close to the text you are reading.
A typical workflow is to select a passage, create a note, add tags for its subject, and later search the collection or browse by tag. The source link remains with the captured text for follow-up.
