Document Spy: Admins little helper

When i should choose one thing, that i really hate about Notes i am sure that i will choose the property box with the document items. Not only that the box is not resizable and really very small on todays big screen, the biggest problem is that you can not switch to Designer and still see the items of the document in the notes client.

So i have developed the Document Spy which overcomes some of the limitations of the Notes property box.  It will show you all items of the current document in a nice table so that you can see the values of all items on one look.

You can reorder the table in the Document spy with a click on the column headers. For cells with a value larger then the available space it will show a tooltip when you hover over the cell

 

You can copy the value of an item to the clipboard with a right click on the row, or you can select the row with the left mouse button and then use STRG+C.

You can disable or re enable the automatic update of the document in the spy with a simple click on the Auto refresh icon in the toolbar. This is very handy if you want to transfer multiple values to another document. When you have disabled the automatic refresh you can always reload the current document with a click on the refresh icon in the toolbar.

As a Bonus the document spy can open and view all profile documents in the current database. To open a profile document click on the folder icon in the toolbar and select the document you want to view from the Selection dialog.

To install the Document spy follow the installation instructions on the Download page of the widget.
