Linking Notes

You can link notes in Tomboy by highlighting text in your current note, then clicking the Link button in the toolbar. This creates a new note and underlines the note's title in the current note.

For example, if your current note contains the phrase “resume,” you can select this text, then click Link to create a new note with the title “resume.” A link is also created in the current note which you can click to open the new “resume” note.

If you change the title of a note, the links in other notes to the note whose title you changed are automatically updated.

Typing the name of another note in your current note automatically links that note for you.
