Tag sidebar: display only related tags on double-click

Alex Jenter 13 aastat tagasi uuendatud 12 aastat tagasi 9
If I double click on a tag in the tag sidebar, make all non-related tags disappear from the list. A click on "All" would restore the normal view.

Empty notes are not deleted automatically

Alex Jenter 14 aastat tagasi uuendatud 14 aastat tagasi 3
Sometimes, I hit CTRL-N to create a new note, then change my mind and hit ESC to cancel. CN will then create a totally empty note.

I suggest deleting those notes automatically.

Make all the text in the search field selected when pressing "Ctrl+F".

When I want to search for another word I have to backspace the previous word by one character. It is slow. If it is selected, I could just click delete.

See how it works in Firefox. Press "Ctrl+F" in FF several times. You will see what I mean.

Tag sidebar ordering modes

burrum 13 aastat tagasi uuendaja Alex Jenter 10 aastat tagasi 5

The following tag sidebar order modes could be added:

  • Most used tags first
  • Manual (custom) order

This assumes introducing some UI control that allows to toggle ordering mode.

Sorting tags by count was also suggested here:

http://cintanotes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1017#p1017

Manual order allows me to arrange tags in the order I like by dragging them in the sidebar. This order is saved, and even if I switch to alphabetical order and then back to custom order, my custom order is preserved.

This feature would automatically cover this request: http://roadmap.cintanotes.com/topic/16170-pinning-favorite-tags-to-the-top-like-in-win7-taskbar/

Use CintaNotes to search and edit it's own settings

burrum 13 aastat tagasi uuendaja Alex Jenter 13 aastat tagasi 3

I got blown away when this came to me.


In short, the idea is to edit CintaNote's .settings file using CintaNotes itself, and searching settings using CN's great 1-key search.


To better understand the idea, please install and check out latest versions of these two programs: Opera browser and Miranda IM. In particular, check out their settings/options managers. They both have so many config options that they HAVE to have search over them. In case of Miranda, it would take very long to locate a setting of interest without search. In case of Opera, it's literally impossible to create GUI for every option it has, so they created a big categorized html+js page with handy 1-key search over them. Type opera:config in the address bar and check it out!


In case of CintaNotes, it could be a main menu option like "Edit settings", toggling CN from notes mode into settings mode, where user could start entering a setting of interest, like "title" to set focus title option. The mode could be made visually distinguishable by drawing wrench or gear icon, or making main area of different background color.


Benefits?

1. Search. CN already has plenty of options, and don't know about you guys, but when I need to edit an option, I open cintanotes.settings in notepad and use search anyway. And I expect the count of settings to grow.

2. Value "strong typing" using UI controls. If a setting is a boolean (0 or 1), the value can be set by a checkbox, if its a number - via numeric field (with up/down arrows), if it's a selection from a fixed number of values (enumeration) - a dropdown list, and if it's a color - via color dialog with #hexacode displayed. This way user has a very low chance to enter a value of wrong type. See Opera's opera:config as a reference.

3. Help tips. A small '?' icon can be displayed near every setting, that on hover (no clicks!) shows a brief hint about the setting. There's no place for this thing in a strict .settings file (unless it has comments). Again, check Opera for a better overview (although they have help tips loading from the web).

4. No more need in designing UI for various settings, and no need in considering which options deserve a UI block, and which are minor and could be left as text-only settings. The mechanism is easily extensible when new options appear.

It depends on how the vote on corresponding ideas goes. Right now they are not at the top of the list.
But if CN is a commercial success in the future, I can very well imagine making CN for other platforms.
