Quite far from now tbh. It's really buggy at the mo' as i'm redoing quite a bit of the app.

How much should we expect things to change? Lately all I see you posting is "redesigns" everywhere. :/

It's mainly stuff related to the My Notes window for now, although admittedly i've been on a redesignmania.

 

NEW My Notes has been rewritten

 
NEW HiDPI support, text is crisp and clear no matter the DPI
 
NEW New Notes now use the colour of the journal it is saved to - unless the user changes it
 
NEW Slight adjustments to padding and label positions
 
NEW You can now change the language of StickyNotes, please help translate StickyNotes if you speak another language :)
 
NEW You can now edit Journals from the manage notes window
 
NEW You can now search notes
 
NEW My Notes' sidebar has been removed
 
NEW My Notes' has been redesigned, far more consistent with Windows, includes Aero and subtle colour changes
 
NEW My Notes now has a mini mode, resize the window and elements will hide and move.
 
NEW Journals now support the same amount of colours as notes

Hey! I forgot all about this after waiting for the new beta. It's really coming out great. I'm still looking forward to getting the tray option to work rather than the task bar. I have way too much in my task bar and would want my notes to be always open without taking up a task bar spot. I see you have the option in place, but it doesn't look like it's ready just yet. Maybe B10? I'll have to play with 9.3 a little more and see how it is now!

Does it support RTL languages for translations and UI? I can translate it in my native language if it is easy. Can you guide me little.. how to progress.

 

Not currently, sorry.

 

Any pics of new Ui? Wondering what it looks like for various reasons

 

Here ya go:

 

The My Notes window changes colour depending on whatever colour Aero uses.

I'll try and get the tray option working for B10, it was quite buggy when I tried it last time so I had to disable it for the timebeing.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By Max Norris · Posted

      Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
    • Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Windows 11 KB5094126 BSODing, freezing, forcing BitLocker lockout, breaks OneDrive, and more by Sayan Sen Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5094126 and KB5093998 last week as the latest Patch Tuesday updates. Following that the company also published the accompanying dynamic updates under KB5094149, KB5095971, and KB5094156. While Microsoft has so far not acknowledged any major problems with the release, some users online are running into problems. These range from OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, BitLocker recovery lockouts, to blue screens and BSODs. The most common one seems to be happening with HP systems wherein affected users say they hit 0xc0430001 BSOD (blue screen of death) error code after the KB5094126 update. We wonder if this could be related to the recent bug we covered on HP devices wherein the ongoing Secure Boot certificate updates are leading to similar issues. While we are not certain, users affected by this issue likely need to ensure that the boot.stl file is included on the installation media (such as a USB installer or ISO), if the above-mentioned dynamic updates are deployed. If this file is missing, computers may fail to boot from the installation media and could display the error 0xc0430001. This STL file is used by Secure Boot to verify that the boot files are trusted, so it must match the same Windows version and system architecture. To ensure the file is included, Microsoft recommends using the Update WinPE script, which automatically updates the image and handles the required files. Alternatively, you can manually copy the boot.stl file from the Windows\Boot\EFI folder on a Windows device and place it in the matching folder on your installation media before deploying the updated image. Aside from blue screening some users also note their systems have been freezing following the update. This could be happening to Lenovo PCs specifically. In the case of the OneDrive and Dropbox access issues, a user figured out that there could be a conflict with UAC. He explained: "Okay, so I did some digging, and in our environment KB5094126 breaks OneDrive and Dropbox in Explorer. I went through all our GPOs and found out that the combination of disabling UAC and having my user being a local admin breaks OneDrive in Explorer. ... If I enable UAC again, then it works, even with KB5094126 still installed." Hopefully, Microsoft will look into these issues.

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By rseiler · Posted

      It is when it's a desktop in my house though for a PC that's lightly used and not really important when it is. If it was a laptop, it would be a different story. The real solution is varied and begins starting at post #22 in that thread.
