Greetings,

I notice there is an option to categorize documents, but I cannot figure out how to create categories. Can someone help me out?

Thanks

In file list many bugs. Category not recomended. In "Catalog" tap icon "New" on bottom toolbar. Enter category name in dialog.

I have managed to create some categories OK, but whenever I tap 'send items to "category"' button, I get a message saying 'fatal alert DataMgr.c, line:11444, Index out of range' and have to do a soft reset.

Is there a way to make this work? I'm running PF 0.14i on a Tungsten E2.

Ian.

P.S. Thank you for making Palm Fiction!

There may be some confusion about terminology. As far as I can tell, a PalmFiction "category" isn't the same thing as a Palm category. PalmFiction can navigate the file system on the card, and view documents in any directory.

It appears to use directories on the card as categories, and Category/New will attempt to create a directory on the card below the one PF is currently looking at.

I find it simpler to use a Palm file manager like FileZ to create the directories, and place the documents I want in that directory there with it.

I essentially don't use PF's catalog function.

Categories was broken since PaFi 0.08, any bugs was not accepted. Do not use it, use directories on memory cards, directories in ZIP.
