Alphabetic navigation bar for tag sidebar

Alex Jenter il y a 10 ans mis à jour il y a 8 ans 5
When there're many tags, the tags list becomes really long and inconvenient to scroll. It would be great to be able to just click into a letter and have the list scrolled to this letter.

Here's an example (only here it's horizontal, whereas in CintaNotes it would probably be vertical):

Don't discard search history after going back and modifying

Currently "forward" search history is discarded when you go back and change something there.
Instead, keep it in a separate list available in the right-click menu.

System-wide shortcut to paste current clipboard contents as a note

Alex Jenter il y a 12 ans mis à jour par Christof Deininger il y a 9 ans 2

 Currently if you want to copy the contents of the system clipboard into a CN note you have to give CN the focus and then paste.

This is tedious if you have a lot of clipping to do.

For instance, if you are copying link addresses on a web page you can't select the links and copy them. Instead you have to right-click and copy them to the clipboard. Then you would have to move over to CN and paste there. Then move back to the web page and continue.

A single hot-key that would transfer the contents of the system's clipboard to a CN note would expedite the process.

Thanks for listening --

Attaching files as shortcuts

Alex Jenter il y a 9 ans mis à jour par Tomasz Raburski il y a 8 ans 2

The new file attachement feature is great and would be ideal for my needs as I would like to attach lots of pdf files to a note like a small database.

The problem is the file size and as that don’t plan to use Cintanotes portable or need to have the attachments transferred.

So here is my feature request: Could you advance file attachments so it would also possible to only link to the file attached – with all the additional advancements like open with when right click?

I know I can hyperlink a file but please try to add 25 pdf files in a note – one at a time and the note is full of links instead of the the text. And the 25 pdfs have a size of 100 MB so attaching so a few notes what like this would make CN really big.

I also would like to have attached links to files also on the extra space/part like now the attachments. To have the attachment extra is a great addition and very useful!

When I modify the color theme of Cintanotes, I would prefer that the icons in the search text field and the sort by field also adopt the color chosen per the color theme.

Using tags to help with resolving conflicts

Erik Bangsund il y a 13 ans mis à jour par Christof Deininger il y a 9 ans 5
When I go to import a conflicted copy of the notebook file all I can see is how many notes were skipped because they were duplicates and how many were imported.
The suggestion is to automatically tag the newly imported notes, perhaps with Import-New. Then, if any notes have the same title but different contents, the original should be tagged Import-Original and the version from the conflicted notebook should be tagged Import-Conflict.
This way the user could filter for the new Notes to make sure they still need them. They could filter for the original and conflict copies and compare them.
All of this could be an optional setting that the user chooses, perhaps as a "resolve conflict" menu item.

Splitting up the 'initial focus' setting into separate ones for new notes and existing notes

Ron van de Crommert il y a 12 ans mis à jour par Christof Deininger il y a 9 ans 2

I have a small suggestion to tweak the initial focus setting. Could that be split up into separate settings for new and existing notes? I (and I can imagine many users, too) would prefer the initial focus for new notes to be in the title field, but for existing notes in the text field. It would be great if we could make that distinction in the settings.

report view: window to show table like note summary -> get an overview of your notes now!

ChrisCN il y a 12 ans mis à jour par Christof Deininger il y a 9 ans 2
I am still searching for a way to get an overview of all the notes and this is my suggestion:
(note: in my example I will use 'tasks' but the concept can be applied to any kind of note)

Let's assume you have hierarchical tags representing tasks - the status of a task - the person the task is assigned to and a project context.

TASK
TASK/open
TASK/in.progress
TASK/waiting
TASK/closed

assigned.to
assigned.to/Peter
assigned.to/me
assigned.to/Susan

project
project/p1
project/p2
project/p3

Now you want do get an overview of all those tasks:
 - which status do they have?
 - which person is in charge?
 - which project does it belong to?
 
What I want to suggest is that we can open a report view (special window) to show something like the screenshot below shows!
We could define the tags that should be used for the columns (their subtags are the content of the column)
and we could define which tag/column should be the one used for sorting.

How do you like the idea.
At least to me - this would be extremely convenient.

Shortcut to clear tag selection or an option to do it automatically on search

ChrisCN il y a 13 ans mis à jour par Alex Jenter il y a 11 ans 7
my aim: I want to do a search over all notes

my problem: the feature to just start typing to search is often not working because I notice that a previous tag selection is still active. So CintaNotes only searches within the current tags.
Why not hitting the escape button befor searching? >> You never know how often you have to hit the ESC button! (Well, you could figure it out - but that would slow you down.) I often found myself minimizing CintaNotes although I wanted to do a search.

The problem with ESC is that it depends on whether or not the search field contains something AND/OR some tags had been selected.
I have to hit ESC 2 times whenever tag selection AND search field are in use.
I have to hit ESC 1 time when only tag selection OR search field are in use.
Otherwise I may not hit ESC or CintaNotes gets minimized.

___________
Suggestion 1:
ESC button clears search field AND tag selection at once. (This could be an option.)
___________
Suggestion 2:
Option to let CTRL+F not only clear (select) the search field but also clear a previous tag selection.
___________
Suggestion 3:
New shortcut for one of the above mentioned actions.

Allow multiple links per note

jeroen ophetweb il y a 12 ans mis à jour par Alex Jenter il y a 8 ans 12

i would like to be able to have multiple links to a note.

for instance i just was authorized for a certain network application and received the credentials by mail. i saved them to cintanotes and added the server-address to the link section of the note. when i am on the note and hit f7 then the correct webpage is started.

however i also received the documentation and a training powerpoint for the software to start learning the tool.

i do not want to add a new note because for me this information is one. i saved the documentation and the powerpoint to a folder in mydocuments and can access them there but it would be nice when i can also go to that folder using the link functionality. then i have one place to start from theren.

Separate 'initial focus' setting for clipped notes

Alex Jenter il y a 9 ans mis à jour il y a 9 ans 1
Now despite initial focus settings is set to "body", on clipping the Tags field is focused. While it may be convenient for some users for quick tagging of just clipped notes, other users would definitely prefer the focus to go to the same field as when creating notes with the Insert key.
This problem can be solved by introducing a separate setting for clipping, which could be set to "Tags" by default.

(ale) I did some tests with all versions and I had too the export problem, however I think I found a way and maybe a bug :)
To make a long story short... the problem is in the name for the exported XML file: if we omit the .xml extension for the name, in the save dialog, the export fails, if we explicitly set the .xml extension in the name the export succeed.
