This is a dumping ground for my ideas so I don't forget them.
Feel free to post your own, but please mark if you are working on something and add a link to your fork encase someone wants to help out.
Auto Scroll - WIP
When pasting items into a note and it gets to the point the note needs to scroll, the auto new line feature is less effective as you can no longer just click and paste.
An option to auto scroll to the end when something is pasted on the last line (and a new line is automatically added) would make this more efficient.
Favourites
Some tools are less effective due to the time it takes to get to them, or just how cumbersome a 3 level menu is. I often have a few items I want to join in order to quickly paste into a spreadsheet, but since it's only two or three items it is not much faster using the tool than just doing it manually.
Need a way to make some tools faster such as;
A custom menu that expands or opens in the same bit so you don't need to move the mouse along to the child menu.See experiment_context_menu branchReminders
Set a timer to have a not brought to your attention at a specific time or after a specified period.
Management Window / Save Notes / Tray Icon
Pretty much what you get with Sticky
An earlier test adding titles to notes may be used here, don't think there is much point having titles unless you are saving and organising notes.
Groups
Multiple groups that can be shown at the same time or not. User should pick a group colour and this will be used as the border or title colour on all notes from that group.
Would require the Management Window / Save Notes / Tray Icon to be implemented.
Nextcloud Integration
Would require the Management Window / Save Notes / Tray Icon to be implemented.
Date stamp tools
Tools to reformat a date.
Word / Line Count - WIP
Could possibly be done as a menu with disabled items showing word and line counts.
New List Functions - WIP
*Add dashes to items (Markdown)
*Remove list characters, pretty much everything before and including first space.
Some way to work on multiple lists. Items can be listed as normal but an double return/empty line should specify starting a different list. So doing a join should join the lines above the empty line, then join the lines below it.Hold Ctrl to copy when highlighting text - WIP
Rather than auto copy (which turns out of be either very useful or utterly frustrating), holding Ctrl while highlighting text (drag, double click, triple click, etc) will copy the text.
Settings Window
A separate window where settings could be better organised with additional text explaining function/usage.
Trim Blank Lines - WIP
New tool under Trim which will remove any blank lines.
Auto Indent - WIP
When pressing enter indent new line to match previous.
Search & Replace
Search & Replace with regular expressions (e.g. as found in Geany)
Generate Random/Placeholder Text
May not be able to specify size, but could have some options of a few sentences or paragraphs.
Middle Click Paste - WIP
Press mouse middle button to paste. Added option to disable encase mouse buttons already mapped.
Trim Selected
Allow trimming selected text from lines. May be confusing though and better if search & replace was available.
Quote Lines - WIP
Add tool to quote each line with a single or double quote. Should probably add a tool to remove quotes as well.
