similarTo("item",N)
Returns Boolean true if item is amongst the (optionally N notes) most similar to the current note.
The item parameter must be quoted unless an attribute reference. Ways to define item.
In the query creation pop-ups of agent and Find dialogs this function is listed as "is similar to".
This replaces the legacy #similarTo query operator.
Similarity is based on several factors, including:
- the text of the note
- the note title
- any text contained in user attributes
In addition, weighting is applied for:
- notes having the same prototype
- notes having roughly similar amounts of text
This data replicates that seen in the similar tab of Get Info and in the export code ^similarTo()^.
