Quick table creation (like TAB in OneNote)
e.g. one starts to write, then press the TAB key, immediately a table will be created with the sentence before in the first cell and the cursor on a 2nd cell (which is empty) and ready for further writing. CTRL+Enter creates another row, etc.

General link concept
==== Rationale ====
Currently there are several suggestions regarding links. They could probably be handled smoother by a single uniform concept. (Not talking about implementation here, but really about usability and enabling smooth work flows.)
==== Initial Thoughts ====
For ex. there is the need to keep links contained in clipped or pasted HTML. As these links contain both, a link target and an anchor text, CN would have to support formatted links. The obvious follow-up feature is to let a user enter links manually in the editor [1].
Another request is to support note interlinking. While this reminds of wiki-style interlinking, and even if I prefer a workflow that does not force me get my hands off the keyboard when I'm typing, having to enter something like "[some very long note title]" may not be the perfect work flow for CN, especially if default titles are kept when clipping stuff from the browser [2]. An intellisense-style dropdown in the editor, or "copy note link" / "paste note link" commands (with keyboard shortcuts) may be more appropriate.
Once there, the same concept could be applied to tag links. (Both, a drop-down and a "copy tag link" / "paste tag link" seem appropriate.)
OK, nuff thoughts. :-)
==== Footnotes ====
[1] The question is, how would the user enter such links? IMO, the usual link dialog with two fields (title, url)... sucks. It is much more convenient to enter something in wiki style like [see foo|http://example.com/foo] than go through a dialog. But, seeing the raw form of the link in the note would such, too. (A note with many links would be practically unreadable.) Coming up with a smooth concept here won't be easy, but well worth the intellectual efforts.
[2] When clipping a note from the browser, CN presets the title with the browser window title. That, unfortunately, is not only pretty longish, it also often contains some characters that you can't type on the keyboard. Example: "WordPress › Akismet « WordPress Plugins - Mozilla Firefox". Note the cute little "›" and "«" characters? Go find them on the keyboard. ;-)
No character input possible under Wine (Ubuntu)
Sorry but we don't know how to debug this issue.
Generally CintaNotes is supported only on Windows.
Work under Wine is not supported.
Open note in external editor. Save changes back to note.
Add menu item 'Edit Ext.' , to export selected note contents to user defined editor (such as Sublime Text, WriteMonkey, Notepad ++, Q10, etc). Not intended to replace default editor, or the regular export. Simply a way to streamline the process when you need a little more power.
Highlight all occurrences of a given word in a note after double-clicking on it
Like in Notepad++
Calendar view for notes
Maybe the notes could be shown in a calendar,and the calendar could be shown as a day or a week or a month in one page.
Maybe you can consider that make the CN be the plugin to the google calendar.:)it's a joke.
Add 'new note' to right click menu.
"Backup now" command
Analogous to existing hourly, daily and weekly backups, these backups should be named as ".manual.db".
Multiple highlight colors
"Browse" button in the Link field
It should be great if the linkfield in a note can be filled with a 'browse' button, so de link does not have to be typed in by hand.
Line numbers in note editor
Shortcut (and/or context menu item) to insert current date- and timestamp into note's text or title
Licensed version is not portable
In the portable version, it would be more convenient for the license.key file to be stored near the cintanotes.exe file.
Apply indenting to all pieces of wrapped line
I very like how Notepad++ renders indented wrapped lines. It is best explained with a picture below
Note that althoug I used line breakes to demonstrate desired behaviour in CintaNotes, last paragraph on the picture should be a single line.
I use monospace Lucida Console 10pt as a text font in all of my notebooks.
