[Ann] CintaNotes 2.6.1 Beta 2
Posted: Tue Jun 03, 2014 7:25 pm
by CintaNotes Developer
Hi all,
really didn't want to release another beta.. but the changes and fixes accumulated,
and releasing 2.6.1 final has gradually become risky. So I decided to play it safe and
release another beta first. As usual, would be grateful for your feedback!
Jun 04, 2014 - Version 2.6.1 Beta2In this version:
Enhancements:
- Make search string always shared between sections
- Double click to select all sections
- Middle click to change inbox section
- Pasted notes now go into their original section if it is currently active
- Search string like "-tag" + Enter now works for negating tags from the search box
Fixes:
- Import error on non-lowercase file extension
- Editor: Crash after selecting all text and trying to "Find previous"
- Editor: Single lines were copied with bullet markers
- Editor: Numbered lists were copied to notepad with wrong counting
- Editor: Ctrl+C in Link field was not always working
- Editor: Empty line added via Shift+Enter shouldn't end bulleted and numbered lists
- Delete note confirmation message dialog could get extremely wide
- Tag list filter setting was reset on notebook switching
- (Regression) Search: Negated words in search were not working
- Notes list: Multiple Ctrl+BkSp lead to a crash
Download: Installable:

Alex,
thanks for all the useful enhancements and fixes!!!
Enhancements: - Double click to select all sections
Very nice! There is a minor issue, though. Will post a separate report. - Middle click to change inbox section
ok - Pasted notes now go into their original section if it is currently active
I confirm the pasted note will have the same section as the origin note, even when section "all" is active. - Search string like "-tag" + Enter now works for negating tags from the search box
It works, but there is a performance issue. I will post a separate report.
Fixes:
- Editor: Single lines were copied with bullet markers
Works fine now. - Editor: Empty line added via Shift+Enter shouldn't end bulleted and numbered lists
Great. Thank you!
Thomas
Performance issue with negated tags

Example"todo" and "-done" both are tags.
This works fine:- todo Ctrl+Enter
- -done Ctrl+Enter
Noticable delay here:- todo Enter
- -done Ctrl+Enter
Will send debug.log via private mail.

Double click on section tab

The double-click change is good. Two minor issues though.
- When you double-click on a tab, when section "All" is active already, the screen will flash, because "All" gets activated over and over again.
- When you double-click on a non-active section, it will first activate that section and then activate "All". "All" should be activated directly, though.

Tab context-menu "Select all"

The context menu of tabs should name the shortcut as "Ctrl+Shift+Space".

Thanks for the log. I think I've fixed the issue in the version below (codename "Beta 3"), could you please confirm:

I can't think of any way to avoid that, unfortunately. Any double-click is born as a single-click, and CN can't differentiate between the two without introducing a nasty delay in reaction.
UPD: I think I've come up with a way to at least make double-click simply deactivate All mode, without turning it on again. I'll need to do some experiments however.
When you double-click on a non-active section, it will first activate that section and then activate "All". "All" should be activated directly, though.
Once again, I can think of no way to do that without delaying reaction...

Crash with SQLite

Alex,
i've just had a SQLite Exception, when i tried to delete to recycle bin. Actually it moved the note to r-bin, but i think the note editor did not get closed and i was able to delete a second time. Not sure about the exact steps i performed. I was also running some tests with Export that time. I was not able to reproduce this. Any changes you made regarding deleting notes and/or r-bin?

Only the issue with the delete note confirmation dialog width. I doubt it can be connected in any way to an SQLite Exception, so probably this is some old bug. Please check your CN folder for a log file, it is always produced when an exception occurs, even when Debug logging is turned off. Having the exact error message could really help.
Thanks!

There was a log file log.1.txt only. Its size had zero bytes. I have observed this many times when crashes occurred. So the log is of no help.

That's a pity. Means we'll have to wait till it happens next time. Your desciption of the problem is just too generic for any meaningful diagnostic, sorry(

Yes, i know. Maybe the crash mechanism can be improved, respectively the log mechanism. Do you actually flush the log file?

Sure, it's flushed immediately after each log statement.

Good, since I spent an hour trying to make this better, but didn't like the result.
