I hope you don't mind if I put them all in one issue. I don't see much reason to separate them.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

  1. Importing media into the app is a repetitive process, with having to open the file selection menu every time. Alongside the apparent inability to change/set a default location, requiring you to navigate to your desired directory each time you want to import a file. Sure, there's bookmarking, but that's not really my point.

  2. Default image size is the image's actual size, often (in my case) being far too big to fit on the screen without scrolling.

Describe the solution you'd like

  1. Dragging and dropping files into the app, preferably putting it on the same line as your mouse is under at the time of releasing the button.

  2. Allow configuration of image size to be either proportional to the window size (Shrinking and growing accordingly as you adjust the window size), and/or choosing the preview size after importing, preferably (configurable, perhaps) defaulting/starting with a small preview, or simply scaling with window size at the time of importing. Additionally, if the image is larger than displayed, allow clicking it to show a bigger/full version either (or make it configurable between the two) within the app window or in your default image viewer.

  3. Add an option to load image previews regardless of whether user is in preview mode or edit mode.

  4. (Low priority) I don't mind the style of the main app window, but it would be nice to be able to change the style of the file select menu to that of the user's operating system (Or just have one matching Windows 10).

Describe alternatives you've considered

  1. None.

  2. None.

  3. Automatically view past days (ones that aren't empty) in preview mode (Of course, with the option to switch back to edit mode).

  4. Simply add a scale option to make the distance between texts i.e directories on the side smaller.

Versions:

  • RedNotebook version 2.24 (Installed via Scoop in case that matters, not that I think it should.)
  • Operating system and version: Windows 10 Pro build 19043.1526

Thanks very much in advance. I understand to an extent (My only firsthand experience with code is basic AutoHotKey) that it may not be easy or quick to implement some/all/any of this, but if there's one thing I would like most, it's the image size configuration ability.

Thanks for the suggestions! 1 and 2 should already be possible. 3 and 4 I'd consider out of scope for RedNotebook.

Well, the file doesn't actually get added on Windows when dragging and dropping. And I don't know what you mean for image size configuration.

Thanks! I'll have to test dragging on Windows then. Regarding image sizes: the add-image dialog has a size option in the lower left corner.
