Nothing happens and I don't receive an error in the console

In your code (notes.py), for new note, you don't use get_root().
So, the new note is saved in global setting "root" and not project setting "root"

Notes get sorted according to last modified date when you open the notes window, which I like. However, when you start to search notes, they are no longer sorted according to the last modified date. This may have changed with some release, since I think it didn't work like this earlier. Is it intentional? I'd like the notes to remain sorted by last modified date when I'm doing the search, like in Notational Velocity (nvALT).

I've put together some of the ideas I have for the next version of PlainNotes on the wiki's Roadmap page.

Please chip in share your ideas.

It will be really great, if PlainNotes will be available also for Atom editor!

In the Notes.sublime-settings file, if there were a way to reference the current projects' workspace and (maybe) create a sub directory there called 'Notes'. so something like {"root": "${project_path}/Notes"}, it would be very useful.

PS: I'm not certain if this can already be done. (I'm on windows using ST3)

When viewing a note, I can successfully change the note color, and when saving a note brain.json gets updated correctly. But opening a saved note defaults to the Yellow color scheme without throwing any errors.

Also, neither note_color_scheme nor jotter_color_scheme in user settings seem to have any effect on the operation of PlainNotes. Everything is Yellow.

Many of us (beginners with notes or markdown) would appreciate an option from the control panel menu (Ctrl + P) to invoke in a new tab some type of cheatsheet, where at one place all the syntax examples would be listed. I saw this in "Markdown Preview" sublime plugin and found it really helpful in the middle of writing and not remembering some feature's syntax. In any case, great work!

I use Sublime with a dark theme (similar to this one) and all of the note themes included with this package are quite jarring in comparison.

I would love to see a darker option alongside the current set of neon note themes.

I'm getting the following when trying to change color schemes:

Error loading colour scheme Packages\PlainNotes\Color Schemes\Sticky-Yellow.tmTheme:
Unable to open Packages\PlainNotes\Color Schemes\Sticky-Yellow.tmTheme

The error is also repeated for orange before erroring out.

I just installed on ST2 on Win 7 and menu items, including new note are grayed out.
Don't appear in preferences menu either.

"super+d" is a default keyboard shortcut on Windows 7, and possibly other versions of Windows, which minimizes all windows.

The keyboard shortcut for "note_todo_done" should probably be changed in order to avoid conflict. Perhaps "alt+d" is a better option?

1. activating jotter only when vitagerous is in insert mode
2. jotter do not save any note

By default ST has F3 bound to the command
{ "keys": ["f3"], "command": "find_next" }

PlainNotes seizes this binding and breaks the search experience (common for lots of other applications, not only ST).

I am using PlainNotes on Windows 8.1. Currently, whenever I start PlainNotes, it creates a ".brain" folder on my desktop. Would you consider adding a setting so that I could put this folder someplace else? It would make my desktop less cluttered.

In case of project setting :

a relative path don't work but an absolute path is OK.
Sublime Text manage relative path in project settings so it will be good to have same behavior here.

Jotter is a nice idea. But it doesn't behave properly when press esc on windows. Which, when in the jotter panel, one input something there, and press esc, the panel doesn't really hide. Then i try to click the main panel, and press esc, the jotter panel hide, but then check Notes:: Inbox, nothing there. I consider it might be the issue with key binding, that it never trigger the function SaveJotAndHidePanelCommand.

I use windows 7 and subline text 3 btw.

cheers

Link to Keyboard Shortcuts is down.

Hello,

It would be awesome, if it could work with a sync service.

For e.g. Simple Note

Or any other tips on how you are currently accessing these notes from an Android or iOS app.

Thanks

I use plain notes and tasks a lot.. Thanks for these wonderful plugins.

I couldn't find a way to change the inbox back ground color from yellow to something else.. I could change the same for notes and jotter, but not inbox.

My settings:

{
"root": "~/Dropbox/Notes/",
"archive_dir": ".archive",
"note_color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - Default/Mac Classic.tmTheme",
"jotter_color_scheme": "Packages/Color Scheme - Default/Mac Classic.tmTheme",
"jotter_date_format" :"%d %b %Y",
"jotter_time_format": "%I:%M %p",
"note_save_extension": "note",
"note_file_extensions": ["md","note"],
"enable_yaml": false,
"note_yaml" : ["tags"],
"list_options" : {
"display_modified_date": false,
"display_folder": false,
"display_full_path": false
}
}

I've tried changing the PlainNotes key bindings in my user file but it doesn't help. I can no longer close tabs using ctrl+f4 in Sublime Text 3 after installing the plugin. This is a deal breaker on windows, akin to overriding cmd+w on a Mac.

Is there any workaround to stop the behavior?

I've been using the plugin for a while without issues, however a few hours ago Sublime started freezing a few seconds after startup. I managed to track the issue down to PlainNotes, although I'm not sure exactly what is causing it. I'm using Sublime Text 3 build 3126 64bit on Windows 10 and v0.2.6 of the notes plugin. I've tried the following without success:

• Reinstalling Sublime.
• Reinstalling the plugin.
• Clearing the .brain folder in the SublimeNotes directory.
• Deleting the SublimeNotes directory.

The only thing that seems to help is if I add PlainNotes to the ignored_packages.

Can you only change the tab color?

Hi,
I've seen that the "Index" only hides dot folders in the notes 'root' directory. It may be possible for some hidden folders to be present deeper in the hierarchy.

That folders should be hidden too.

today I gave PlainNotes another try and found out following.

the event handling in PlainNotes might somehow conflict with another package called, SublimeCodeIntel. With the latter one enabled, the note file I edit in PlainNotes trigger HTML snippets, and in jotter mode, I can't use esc to exit jotter thus can not save jotter.

this issue is solved when I disable SublimeCodeIntel and PlainNotes works beautifully at present.

I drop a line here because this conflict might not be fully aware by others and this is not PlainNotes' faults.

CodeIntel is good, but you know the editor is complex now when so many functionalities build upon. All the package are developed independently.

thank you for PlainNotes, it is very cool.

Pressing Tab increases the level in lists but tab-shift results in collapsing the current section. That's a bit weird and the workflow for returning to the "super-list" is somehow cumbersome (new line -> deleting list item -> creating new list item)

Hi.

Couldn't find what markup is supported by PlainNotes. Markdown? Or own custom syntax? I know about YAML (enabled in settings).

Can you explain the Note.tmLanguage?

I just updated to the latest version of Plain Notes. It worked fine on my Mac, but on Windows "List Notes" (F4) stopped working. I tried to bind it to other keys, and also tried to execute it by selecting "Notes: List...", but the list won't appear. Creating a new note and index list work fine.

Hello,

It would be great if I could set the default color theme at Plain Notes -> Settings - User.

I tested and nothing happened, so I changed Note.sublime-settings in PlainNotes.sublime-package to make it work!

Hi,

thanks for this beautiful plugin.

I was wondering if link to local file is possible?

I tried:

• [title](/tmp/tmlfile)
• [title](file:///tmp/tmpfile)

but it does not open on Enter, so I guess that link works only for HTTP.

Thinking about it maybe PlainNotes can try to open i.e. /tmp/tmpfile from [title](file:///tmp/tmpfile) link by passing it to OS for default application to open. Or maybe even letting user set default application for handle file:// protocol links (i.e. set to subl, which IMHO would allow interlinking Notes BTW)

Thanks

I noticed recently that option + click was no longer working on Sublime so I manually went through my packages and disabled them one at a time until it started working again. Turns out that PlainNotes is the culprit.

I'd be happy to provide you additional information if you need help debugging.

I'm using Sublime Text 3 (build 3083)

Pretty sure the culprit is 6e0703d

"note_color_scheme": "Packages/PlainNotes/Color Schemes/Sticky-White.tmTheme"
does nothing in Plain Notes -> Settings - User. New notes have the yellow theme

also note_color_scheme should be in Plain Notes -> Settings - Default.

I'm using sublime text 3

Hello,

Currently when you open up the search bar using F4, the text you enter is only matched against the title of notes in your root directory. Would there be an easy way to make it so that the entire body of all the documents in the root directory are searched instead (like in Notational Velocity)? I think a feature like this would greatly enhance this package.

Thanks,
Alex

There seems to be an error in PlainNotes/Main.sublime-menu, a trailing comma in line 19, resulting in a failed installation attempt:

 "args": {"file": "${packages}/PlainNotes/Notes.sublime-settings", },

my eyes are bleeding.. :)
thx awesome tool

I like the functionality this plugin provides but I am seeing some bugginess (for example, **text** is not bolding in my notes). Is there any active development here?

Thanks

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a way to specify the default color for new notes. I tried note_color_scheme and color_scheme but neither seemed to work.

Thanks for making such a wonderful package!

'Change Color' is greyed out under the 'Notes' menu, and there is no 'Notes: change color' in the command palette.

Tried uninstalling and reinstalling PlainNotes but still does not work. Anywhere to check what the problem might be?

Syntax needs to be updated to work with the latest syntax engine in ST3

It would be cool if broken/word-wrapped lines in lists are indented as much as the first line.

Upon creating a new note, I'm seeing tags: twice. For example:

---
title: 
date: 2015-11-03 10:00:03
tags: 
tags:
---  

My preferences look like this:

{
  "root": "/Users/mbp/Dropbox/documents_dropbox/master_notes/",
  "archive_dir": ".archive",
  "jotter_color_scheme": "Packages/PlainNotes/Color Schemes/Sticky-Yellow.tmTheme",
  "jotter_date_format" :"%d %b %Y",
  "jotter_time_format": "%I:%M %p",
  "note_save_extension": "note",
  "note_file_extensions": ["md","note"],
  // "enable_yaml": true,
  "note_yaml" : ["tags"],
  "list_options" : {
    "display_modified_date": false,
    "display_folder": false,
    "display_full_path": false
  }
}

Is there a way to only tags: one time? Or, perhaps I'm understanding a function of having it there twice? Thanks

Wouldn't it be nice to go to the inbox, and have the option to create a new note from the current entry? Definitely an enhancement request not a bug fix. Might do this myself if I can find a bit of bandwidth.

Features might be:

• Basic operation would be a keypress to select the current item in the inbox, ask for a note title, and create a new note with that title, and the contents of the current item
• More interesting might be to add an inbox item to an existing note - something along the lines of:
  • keypress in the inbox view
  • select the note to add to from a quick panel ("Create New" could be an option for getting the basic option above)
  • open that note
  • move the cursor to the appropriate point in the note, and some other keypress (enter even?) inserts the inbox item into the note

I think both of these should delete the inbox item once it's in a note.

how config word_wrap?

Hello,

Is there any plan to merge (or add features) from PlainTasks into PlainNotes ? (or the oppposite)

Thanks !
(great job by the way)

It would be better to place it as submenu related to the View section.

• Sublime Text 3
• windows 10 pro 64
