  • Hm. weird focus across windows. thanks. B3 has some minor focus changes.
  • ok. try this. from the BETA announcement, download lexiyb2.zip and try again. If it doesn't work, try the following: run a command line as Administrator, then try running Lexiy.exe again if this still doesn't work, launch as lexiy.exe -d 3 then r…
  • This could be an Administrator problem. I'll look into it today. Snudge reports that it doesnt work for him except as Administrator. Why that is I don't know yet.
  • Thanks for this feedback. scrolling is missing from the settings page. right now there shouldn't be enough to need scrolling, but this should be added. in b1, scrolling is broken also in the project list sidebar (but not in the drawer!). I have fi…
  • I'm in two minds about this. one school of thought says that things deleted should really be deleted. But other people want them kept sometime. the obvious answer is to have an option for this. Another UI option planned is whether to confirm delet…

  • Thanks. there are a number of mis-focus issues on the desktop version. the note editor should automatically gain focus the search box does not autofocus the login/register panel, enter key should press the button.
  • Ok, i'll bump this idea up a bit.

  • Change password feature is long overdue. I need to add this to both desktop and mobile versions. FYI, this feature is slightly complicated (which is why it's not there already). It needs to decrypt everything with the old password and re-encrypt it…

  • good idea. added to my list.
    in Searching Comment by jkj April 2016
  • I've been thinking about this. I'm planning to have a "due date" option for notes and also a time based sort. A lot of things i put in are date based and this would be useful. What other things do you think it should sort on? Other systems let you…

  • Great to hear you got it working. All of the problems i've encountered on other machines were to do with permissions. This is a real pain. I am not running windows 10, but i assume they've made this sort of thing even more annoying. Why you wouldn…
  • Actually yes. For example, a standard Android email entry box wants to automatically search your mobile contacts to support completion. This isn't quite the same as searching your email addresses, but access to it is via the same mechanism. However…

  • Firstly, notes will not contain multiple records - although later there might be attachments. Also there will be more meta-data. I'm planning to add due dates at some point so that notes can be viewed on a time line. Definitely TODOs should be sepa…
  • I do think prompting is a very important point. Suppose a template was defined by word rules, there would have to be a way to query the missing data. This is the same problem as a language ambiguity, you have to ask the user to add more information …

  • There's still a lot to do unfortunately, but some of the basics are there. I'll be quite interested in feedback once an early version is ready.

  • Absolutely. The idea that you can drive with the mouse or your finger is at the heart of the new way. There's also the visual cues when you hover and the movement "physics" when you drag and scroll. I'm copying the Android material design style. He…
    in Use Case Comment by jkj February 2016
  • That's exactly why i want it too. Sync between the PC and the app should be automatic and quick. When I'm working i want to make notes and reminders. Also sometimes i put in links when using the mobile, but i want to open those links later on the PC…

  • Imagine you could define a template in words. That would be the idea way. However, then it's not a "template" as such, but an explanation. That's how you would tell a person. There's no reason why it couldn't work like that with an app. Your voice …

  • Good clip. but I don't think machines will dream. I think dreaming is the process by which the human brain garbage collects things that are irrelevant. The notion that human memory is extensive but recall is limited is wrong. That would be inefficie…
    in Templates Comment by jkj February 2016
  • This is a very interesting idea. Many other note taking apps have the concept of a note type. You choose the type and, from that, you have an automatic template so you can fill in the fields. There's usually also a general type, which is an unstruc…

  • People, in general, are waking up the idea that their personal information should be confidential. You would think this were obvious yet, for a long time, people have been willingly publishing their private lives to FB, Google and just anyone. Howe…

  • It isn't. For database export, the app acts as a content provider, it provides a stream for another app to consume. That other app could be a file manager or a cloud drive of some kind. However, some apps cannot accept streams, although they should…

  • Unfortunately, the article does not go into specifics like the use of a VPN, which i think is essential in these circumstances. Additionally, the use of long and complicated passwords means that staff have more to remember. They're going to write t…

  • Oh, I'd like to add that the key "forgetting" really is forgetting. If you set it to 5 mins, i wake up in 5 mins and erase the key. Specifically, i don't compare the time of next usage to previous usage and then delete the key. This, of course woul…

  • Good points. There are two vulnerabilities here. settings files The settings file has to remember your cipher key, until you either logout, or it auto-forgets. Of course, if anyone were to get this file, they could decipher your notes. the key i…

  • I actually want to promote the "L" logo a bit more, but i need something wide to act as a banner. You're right about the text, of course. This is something i've already tweaked once. Right now the text is separate and this is the source of the probl…
    in Branding Comment by jkj February 2016
  • You're right. I think i'm going to have to have another go at workarounds for this.
  • Yes, the fabulous collapsible header is finally working a bit. It's meant to collapse to make room as you scroll, and also make the title smaller. This should have worked from the beginning, but there's an Android bug and it doesn't want to appear …
  • Version 1.2.7 made it worse, there's a 1.2.8 in the pipe. Although it's still just as bad.
  • I looked into this and it appears to be an Android bug. There's a few workarounds out there....
