Installation

Run the installer LexiySetup.exe.

You will need admin rights to install. The installer installs two packages:

• The Microsoft Runtime
• Lexiy

The Microsoft Runtime will install first. After which the main Lexiy package installer will run.

Running

The installer will install a launch icon on the desktop and also in the start menu.

Using

Click on the login tab and enter your existing credentials. This will log in the to server and automatically fetch your existing database.

If this works, you're good to go.

If you don't have an account, you can register one from the login page.

File Locations

Lexiy's files, including your databases are emitted into the AppData local area for the user. For example this will be:

c:\users\YOU\AppData\Local\Lexiy

Account files are named according to your login email, for example, fred_at_spam_com.db If you don't have an account, your database is named notes.db and subsequently renamed into your user account after registration.

The preferences are emitted into prefs.jsn

For the beta, a debug log is emitted into lexiy.log (in the same directory as the lexiy program). Consulting this can resolve problems.

Tips

• you can force a sync by clicking on the refresh icon.
• cut & paste within the note editor is possible using the keyboard (there isn't a popup yet). Ctrl-C, Ctrl-X, Ctrl-V, Ctrl-A work.
• You click and hold to start a text selection in the note editor (this is a bit fiddly at present).
• you can swipe a note to move it to a project (like the mobile version).

Problems and Limitations

• font sizes are inconsistent. I'm working on this.
• links in the notes are not yet automatically clickable.
• the "snackbar" at the bottom will often popup with "OK". This is currently a visual indication that a sync has been performed. Later this will be silent (unless there's an error).

Troubleshooting

• Try running things like the install or Lexiy.exe as Administrator.
