Some questions about CN

This seems to be the only place where I can post a topic. After using CintaNotes for a year I have some questions.
Question 1. I'm using the function Copy Note Link. After I paste the link on a different note and then execute the link. Is there a way to make a selection of 1 of the notes that I added to the basic note. That would eliminate the need to make a second selection to open a Note.
Note: Additionally it would be nice if there was a way to keep a master note on the top of the list. The master note would have links to all of the notes that you want to be able to get to fast.

Question 2. When I opened "File" there is a list of way too many notes. I would prefer to see only a few that I use all the time and search using the browser for the notes I use rarely. Using the File tab to open my notes. I would like to do the following if possible:
"File List"
1. ON THE "FILE" LIST, is there a way to sort the order.
2. Is there a way to control which notes appear on the "File List".

Question 3. Is there a way to add images to a note?

Question 4. Is there a way to keep more than one note open at a time. I can do this only if the additionally the notes are on the same main note page. In other words adding a "New Note" not "File New".

Hi Robert,
Thanks a lot for your good questions!
That's very strange that you can't post a new topic, especially since you were able to do it in the past.

Ok let's get to the questions:

On how to keep a note on the top of the list. I have already answered this in another topic, but will reiterate. This depends on the sort settings. If you sort by Title, prepend the note's title with some special symbol like "* ".
If you sort by creation date, with Alt+Enter set the date way into the future (past). Etc.

I'm not sure I've understood your question about note links. If it's about the copy note link being inconvenient - well there's easier way to insert a link to another note. Press Alt+Shift+N and start typing to search by note's title. Press Enter to confirm.

I've already [http://cintanotes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2771#p13720]covered this here[/url].

Yes, by attaching it as a file using paperclip (or F12 in editor). As of now, direct pasting of images is not supported, this is planned for future version.

Bill has already answered this.
