Direct Edit Notes

Hi,


how can I directly edit notes?
I mean its really unhandy to have to click on edit, find the popup windows edit there and close it again, 
When i could just type into the open and pinned pinned panel.

Thank you.
Chris

Hi,


there are a couple of reasons for this is:

  • the rich text editor is quite "heavy". It takes a long time to instantiate.
  • it was always intended to be as a read only view of the notes, especially because it is updating the contents based on the selection.
  • usability: while in "edit" mode, selection change handling gets complicated (should you just auto save or prevent the user from changing the selection/ask to change)

Having a dedicated edit dialog/tab "decouples" the edit action from the selection which makes it much safer and does not introduce weird, maybe blocking and non-intuitive behavior when the selection changes.


I hope this clears things up.


You can post a feature request in the ideas forum if you want to see this functionality in a future version of Royal TS. Please include as many details as possible how you think this should work, especially with selection changes in mind.


Regards,
Stefan
