Improve display of long hierarchical tags in notes list

Alex Jenter 12 years ago updated 10 years ago 4
Long hierarchical tags take too much space in the note's preview.
It would be better to
1) Display same parents only once
2) Compact long paths etc.

Add "Keywords"("Remarks", "Comments") field to the notes

Alex Jenter 12 years ago updated by anonymous 6 years ago 10
In many of my notes i add keywords to the first line of the text. I use them as a meaning to find notes more easy.

Example:


Title: CintaNotes - great tool for taking notes

Text:
  • Keywords: managing notes pim outlook tasks recommended by ct
  • really fast
  • simple but powerful gui

Tags: outliner software

I use tags to categorize notes. Tags have a generic meaning and can be applied to many notes. Keywords can relate to the circumstances of why i created the note. Keywords might be used for one single note only. Keywords can be different words having the same meaning.

I would like to have keywords as an extra field, that could be placed between tags and link in the note editor.

Editing multiple notes in one edit window

Alex Jenter 14 years ago updated 6 months ago 10 1 duplicate
Would it be possible, after double clicking on a note to edit/view the note, and without going back to the note list, to be able to view all the selected notes in this window, one by one, maybe by clicking on an up/down arrow?

Ability to create links to paragraphs within notes

Alex Jenter 7 years ago updated 7 years ago 11

SAM writes:

"My feature request is that users can insert a bookmark onto text in a CintaNotes note, leave it named that text or re-name it (shorter), and then insert a link to it elsewhere in my CintaNotes such as a the top of the note AND in remarks.

I often find in my research that I want to point to a particular part or several parts of a captured text in CintaNotes elsewhere inside that CintaNote - such as at the top of a note where I often want to summarize what is in the note and place a mini table of contents there so I can get to key parts in a long Note - and also place a link to those key part(s) in the *remarks* of the CintaNote to point to what is most important to me, when I return to use the note later.

Option to start Simplenote sync after any local modifications

Alex Jenter 11 years ago updated by Michael Weiner 7 years ago 10

Add checkbox "Synchronize immediately after local modifications". When it is checked, synchronization should be started after any modifications to synchronized notes.


Changes to notes in non-synchronized sections shouldn't trigger synchronization. This sync should also reset the autosync timer.

As per the following thread, CN does not support multi-level lists without a messy workaround. This would be a nice addition.

As of 1.5.1 CintaNotes retains TABs. However some users still need to autoconvert them to spaces. CN should do this on the go and not on save. Also TAB width should be configurable.

Shortcut to edit focused note while minimizing the main window

Alex Jenter 12 years ago updated 9 years ago 10
Many times i search for one single note. I find and open it. Now it takes three "Esc" to close all cintanotes windows. Over time this is just to many unnecessary klicks. I suggest to introduce "Ctrl+Enter" or F2 for opening a note window. The note window should be opened (as with normal Enter) and the search windows should be auto-closed (new functionality). Now it takes one single ESC to close the note-window when finished editing.

Mark a whole line e.g. bold with one key stroke

ChrisCN 11 years ago updated by Alex Jenter 10 years ago 14

Until now it was possible to hit CTRL-B to mark a whole line as bold (when no character was selected). I used this feature daily to accent headlines within notes.


Unfortunately this was considered as a bug which got fixed now.


So I request to get new key combinations to set the formatting for a whole line. E.g. CTRL+SHIFT+B for bold and so on...
