The Libraries List pane has the following parts:
The Libraries List
The Libraries list is displayed in the left pane of the base Memento desktop window. Like the window title & tool bars, it is always present. Its content includes:
- library groups — that display as folders — and libraries. When a group contains libraries, a dropdown button appears, allowing users to click to make the group the current group and view the libraries within it.
- Libaries shared with the user
- Public libraries
- A search function
- A list of the user's templates in the Online Template Catalog
v=== Text below is TO BE DONE (TBD) ===v
A list of the Libraries in the current library group is displayed. The Group can be selected by panning left or right or by selecting the group from the Group/Main Menu.
Library Tiles & Icons
Touching an icon or tile opens the library. Each tile has a Library Menu and possibly also an Add Entry Menu.
Icons or tiles may be moved (reordered) within the group by dragging.
The Action Menu
Touching the 3-dot icon in the upper-right corner of the screen opens the Action Menu, allowing the user to perform one of the following actions:
- Add Library
- Opens the Library Edit screen for a new library in the current group
- Add Group
- Accepts the name of a new group and adds a new group with that name
- Open by URL
- Accepts a library name at http://libs.mobi/ and opens that library
- Rename Group
- Presents the name of the current group, allowing the user to alter that name, and accepts the new name as the name of the current group
- View
- Allows selection of the desired Library List view. The available views are: Large Tile view, Small Tile view, and Icons view
The Group/Main Menu
Touching the 3-line menu in the upper-left corner of the screen opens the Group/Main Menu, which allows selection of the Group to be displayed. The developer occasionally refers to this menu as the slide menu. Some people like to call the 3-line icon a hamburger icon and thus the menu as the hamburger menu.
Below the list of groups, the following menu items are displayed:
- Favorites
- Show an Entries list of entries marked as Favorites across all libraries
- History
- Show an Entries list of entries across all libraries updated in History
- Recycle Bin
- Show a Libraries list of the Recycle Bin
Below that, the following menu items are displayed:
- Catalog templates
- Show a Templates list of catalogued library templates
- Cloud storage
- Show a Cloud Libraries list (not a normal Libraries list) that are synchronized with Memento Cloud Storage
- Sync with Google
- Initiates the synchronization process with Google Sheets on Google Drive. This starts immediately and may continue for a while, depending on how many libraries and entries are to be synchronized.
Below that, the following menu items are displayed:
- Settings
- Show and allow update of Memento settings
- Help
- Open the Help menu, containing the following menu options:
- Help Contents
- Initiate the Internet browser at the Memento Database Wiki Web site
- Forum

- About

The Library Menu
Touching the 3-dot icon in the upper-right corner of the library tile opens a menu of actions that may be performed on the Library.
- Protection
- Create a matter password for Memento libraries, if not already created, and set this library to require the password before opening

- Upload this library to the Memento Cloud
- Link or Sync To Google Sheets
