General ranges to filter by (prio, date, time, etc.)

Noah 10 years ago updated by Alex Jenter 10 years ago 1
First of all: I love CintaNotes; the GUI with its surface feeling, the stable way it works. Great!

When You work with this tool You get really quick the idea storing things there that are more dedicated to be stored in a knowledge base tool (exp. ultra recall; good but not far so good GUI and not updated).

To come a little more closer to this, I suggest implementing tag ranges.
Like a tag belongs to a parent tag (hierarchy of tags), it could belong to a range.
Programmers know ranges very well: they are called enumerations.

So, consider a tag enumeration group "A, B, C, D" which is a classical priorization from A to D (s. GTD).
I give each tag an order no. like A=1, B=2, C=3, D=4.

Please, this is an easy example with only 4 items; think about some more items;-)

Now, there are some ways to filter by enumeration: in the search bar by expressions and in the tag bar.

The search bar is easier to imagine; for the tag bar I suggest a right click on a tag "start here" and "until here", so that for example tags B to D are used in filtering.

This implementation itself could be helpful: select a tag by clicking first and last; but search in search bar would not work this way. Maybe using the shift key to select multiple elements at once like in an explorer.

The tag folder "prio" with "prio/A"-"prio/D" could itself have the property "enumeration".

A tag enumeration is not possible when filtering a date/time range; there are other suggestions for this.
Merging the ideas together would be nice.

I think complexity may be hard for this as some more things may to be thought about...


Thanks a lot for CintaNotes!

Multi-Level Lists

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

Recognise URLs without http

Chris Moore 10 years ago updated by Alex Jenter 10 years ago 2
This may already be in the roadmap, but I couldn't find it. Currently CN only recognises www URL's if they include the http:// at the front - so if you just type www.example.com for instance, CN won't recognise it as a URL. Would be nice if CN would recognise URLs without the http:// as a valid link.

Hi Chris, 
Thomas is right - you can assign the URL manually. In the past CN recognized even 'cintanotes.com' as the URL, but this lead to a lot of problems. Since 'www' is nowadays seen as a rudiment, I see no compelling reason to implement this asap. But of course all will depend on number of votes!

Natural Sorting for Title

Chris Moore 10 years ago updated by Alex Jenter 10 years ago 13
CN does not yet have an option for natural sorting for numbers in the title field. eg
Note 1
Note 2
Note 10

CN will sort these like so:
Note 1
Note 10
Note 2

Natural sorting would be:
Note 1
Note 2
Note 10

Windows itself defaults to natural sorting now, and I think CN should as well.

Sorting by the Remarks field

Alex Jenter 10 years ago updated 7 years ago 4
Feature request: It would be nice if I could sort the database by the remarks field, and that should be included in the sort-dropdown list of the main window.
