When exporting the file tags not sorted
So you can not compare the XML file with the previous version in WinMerge.
Please add sorting tags in the exported XML file.
- Sort tags by "name"
- Sort sections by "id"
- Sort notes by "uid"

To use CintaNotes as a long-text writing tools I propose to add 6 functions in the context menu which handle with notes as text blocks.

The first 5 functions are applied in the view mode. These functions change only the creation-date-and-time of notes to which they are applied. They do not change the content (text, title, tags, and so on) of these notes except creation-date-and-time. The seventh function <merge> handling with text blocks has already been included in CintaNotes.

The function <insert before> inserts a new note "before" the current note. "Before" means that

creation-date-and-time of the new note = creation-date-and-time of the current note - 1 second.

The function <insert after> inserts a new note "after" the current note. "After" means that

creation-date-and-time of the new note = creation-date-and-time of the current note + 1 second.

The function <move before> moves the current note "before" the target-note. The target-note is chosen after calling this function from the context menu.

The function <move after> moves the current note "after" the target-note. The target-note is chosen after calling this function from the context menu.

The function <exchange> "exchange" two chosen notes. "Exchange" means that creation-date-and-time of these notes are exchanged.

The sixth function <split> is applied in the edit mode. It splits the edited note into two ones at the cursor location. The first note has the same creation-date-and-time as the edited note. The second note is placed "after" the first note. The texts of these notes are first and second parts of the text of the edited note, respectively. The content (title, tags, and so on) of these notes except text and creation date-and-time coincides with the content of the edited note.

The functions <move before> and <move after> can be applied to a group of notes. For example, for three notes Note1, Note2, Note3 (ordered by creation-date-and-time) we obtain:

for the function <move before>:

creation-date-and-time of Note1 = creation-date-and-time of the target-note - 3 second
creation-date-and-time of Note2 = creation-date-and-time of the target-note - 2 second
creation-date-and-time of Note3 = creation-date-and-time of the target-note - 1 second

for the function <move after>:

creation-date-and-time of Note1 = creation-date-and-time of the target-note + 1 second
creation-date-and-time of Note2 = creation-date-and-time of the target-note + 2 second
creation-date-and-time of Note3 = creation-date-and-time of the target-note + 3 second

I think that implementation complexity of these functions is easy.

I would like to view and edit the full text of a composite notes (including notes-components which are displayed in more than 50 lines) without excess tags.

For the convenience of viewing and editing the composite notes it is necessary to create automatically generated table of contents of composite notes that allow to jump to the necessary part.

This Idea linked with http://roadmap.cintanotes.com/topic/3224-editing-multiple-notes-in-one-edit-window/.

Showing note's title only in one line makes it difficult to read and write long note's titles. It is necessary to duplicate them in the beginning of the notes. So I have to duplicate long note's title at the beginning of the note's text.

I often use long tag names that do not fit into the tag sidebar. I would like to see whole names of my tags, not a scraps which is not always allow to guess at what the tag they point to.

In case of parent tag having child tags, other notes that are tagged with parent tag but not tagged with child tag are difficult to be found. A solution may be to use "untagged" or "other" tag under parent tag having child tags to collect these notes.
