Keep it simple and quick. It's brilliant! Don't do combine which so many. It's so great thing!

When the line wraps, text in the new line should appear with indent, e.g.

* This is line one and it wraps now,
__and the text starts correctly indented.

Wrong - 1.5.1

* This is line one and it wraps now,
but the text starts at pos 1.

Add a feature to exclude notes from the default view.

The link icons in the top left corner of the note's preview should have a tooltip displaying the target link.

This would allow individual parts of a note to be shuffled about, moved or copied from one note to another and deleted without leaving the main window. Useful for to-do lists and large projects.

Enable source code syntax highlighting, such as java , C#

This idea is 'stolen' from an application called 'find and run robot' that uses a score rule system which again is used to get the most important search results on the top of the list.

The idea behind this rule system is that you can assign a 'score' to each tag and/or note. This values can then be used to calculate the final ranking for each note.

The result is an addition to the manual sorting feature because many notes could be auto-sorted based on the score a tag got from you.

Let me give you an example:
In CintaNotes I store - amongst other kind of notes - tasks and hints. If I show a list of notes limited by a tag selection I want the tasks to occur first in the list. (Hints are not that important because I would do a specific search to find them).
Another example would be a list of task where the already finished ones go to the end of the list (of course: this example only applies if you don't delete finished task but keep them for later reference).

What you could do is assign the tag 'task' a score of 2000 and the tag 'finished' a tag of -4000. The tag 'hint' gets a score of -200.
The sorting of the search result would lead to list like this:
---------
    - this task is still open (score=2000)
    - this is another open task (score=2000)
---------
    - this area is where we have all notes that have a calculated score of 0
      (or all other notes that have no score at all)
---------
    - a hint (score=-200)
    - another hint (score=-200)
---------
    - now a finished task (score=-2000)
    - and another finished task (score=-2000)
    
As you can see:
If a note is assigned to more than one tag with a score -> the scores of all its tags are summarized.

I suggest to use the existing criteria in addition to the new score:
The priority of this criteria should be:
 - manual set position is most important (just like it is now in manual sort mode)
 - score (has second priority)
 - date (should have last priority - like it is now in manual sort mode)
   -> those notes ('no manual position' and 'no score') should be aranged around the position where score=0

Some additional thoughts:
In a first step I think it would be sufficient to implement this score system only for tags. In a later step notes could be included (the only benefit of assigning scores to individual notes would be that you can make this note 'very importang' or 'not important at all'). But I think the greatest benefit comes with the tag based score.

Why is this idea different to a priority?
A priority (e.g. 1-5) will lead to many notes with the same priority (e.g. 1).
The scoring system leads to a real ranking and with the use of negative values is much more flexible.


The explanation may sound confusing at first but it is very simple:
The higher the score you asign to a task - the higher the ranking of it's notes.

Like this:

when i have a email address in a note, e.g.
xxx.xxx@xxx.com or xxx@xxx.com
only xxx.com is highlighted

There's currently no way to see what's the ending of a long tag which doesn't fit into sidebar.

In the editor it looks fine, but in the article list columns are not properly shown.

Add a new view, similar to the tag-sidebar, but grouping the tags automatically. It is the tags that should be shown as a group-relation. This is different from regular filtering a tag and showing the notes as a group. The result is a virtual tree where you can navigate tag relations, where notes themselves define these relations. The tag-tree-explorer is like a report view. The view is useful for navigating, grouping notes and when printing is available, allows them to be printed nicely as a hierarchical group. This is without the need to explicitly define a tag hierarchy.

There are couple standard windows shortcuts with Ctrl for word-level navigation in text editors:

* Ctrl+Left/Right -- jump to previous/next start of a word

* Ctrl+Backspace -- delete back till nearest word start

* Ctrl+Delete -- delete forward till nearest word start

I got used to these, but it appears CN 2.0.1 binds "Delete current note" action to Ctrl+Del. Could we use another shortcut for this action, getting back word deletion function?

P.S. Help says Ctrl+Del "Clears currently selected text of any formatting.", this could be outdated.

I like to use cintanotes with zero (0) rows visible in preview mode.
When there is a link in the note an arrow will be visible before the note title to indicate that. When there is no link in the note, this arrow is missing and the note title is moved more to the left.

Could you align the note titles for all note (with or without links) so they are presented nicely under each other?

See also : http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/521/testje.png for an example.

When more than one note is selected (for example all the notes for a certain tag), pressing F7 should open *all* the selected notes' links. Perhaps also any links inside the note itself.
There should be some kind of confirmation when trying to open a large number of links.

It is painful that after program restart one has to search for the note which was focused.
