Pleasant MindManager/OneNote Link Surprise

I am not quite sure if it has always been this way but today when I was setting up a folder link, using the smart map folder ability, I accidentally created a link to my entire macroeconomics folder which includes my OneNote Macroeconomics "notebook" and it's appropriate sections. A smile then rolled across my face when I realized it had also created the appropriate links to the sections in that notebook. Curiosity now flowing, my finger pushed forward and clicked on the link to see if it actually worked and before I knew it OneNote was opening and my macroeconomics notes section was in front of me. Wow....I was impressed.

I was not aware of this ability, however I do remember previously trying to create links to those notebooks sections but had to do it manually in order for it to work. This was automatic and brings us one step closer to eliminating that barrier that currently exists between MindManager and OneNote.

Does this feature require the new plug-in? I am not quite sure but either way I must admit MindManager once again has found a way to make me go "wow" despite my latest efforts to tone down our symbiotic relationship.

Jason,
OneNote's hierarchy is of Notebooks, Sections, and Pages. As you may have realized, they map like this:
Notebooks: folders
Sections: .one files
Pages: page within a .one file.

The OneNote+MindManager add-in for MindManager lets you link to pages, a feature that you cannot do easily without the add-in.

Enjoy the symbiotic relationship with the two great tablet apps.
