Thanks :)

Skins for StickyNotes (Skins for Notes too complicated to do at the mo' will likely come in a future update :p)

UI isn't final and Skins for StickyNotes will likely be in Notes 1.1 - not Notes 1.0 :/

--------------------------------

Release date is likely to be April 1st :devil:

No seriously :o

Nice work. What technologies are you using? Have you considered handwritting recognition? ? Also, how about losing the aero window border and having your own minimize, maximize and close buttons?

What do you mean by losing the window border (Do you mean like removing the titlebar like StickyNotes has?)

EDIT:

I've quickly changed a bit of the code:

Whilst it is nice, I doubt i'll include such a feature anytime soon.

PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS FOR NOTES, NOTES IS A DIFFERENT APP TO STICKYNOTES.

I'm loving the look of Notes! I'd be very interested in partaking in a beta: from what I've seen it seems to be a very complete product. I look forward to seeing more from you, and possibly getting the opportunity to play around with Notes.

Sorry - I don't seem to understand? :/

Like instead of having the border and title bar provided by windows....make your own.

EDIT: I'd very much like being included in the beta test, if possible :D

Oh - thanks for clearing that up.

Just to answer the borderless Notes question - it isn't going to happen and never will - I want Notes/StickyNotes to include Aero, as that is the only way to remain somewhat Native to Windows (As c'mon Notes hardly looks native with it's dark colours and textures.)

It’s available for $1,649.99 right now, down 18% from its $1,999.99 list price. Importantly, this is a limited time deal so do not hang around if you want to get it.

As a Copilot+ PC, you get access to features that require on-device AI processing for enhanced performance, productivity, and privacy such as Recall, Live Captions, and image generation. You don’t only get access to the Windows 11 AI features, there are also features like Transcript Assist which are part of the additional Galaxy AI features. This is a perk over laptops from other brands. In terms of hardware, this device packs a 16-inch 3K AMOLED touchscreen with 120Hz refresh rate and anti-reflective Corning Gorilla Glass with DX. The laptop is made with durable CNC aluminum, has a slim profile of just 12.7mm, and weighs just 3.72 lbs.

    • Apple do exactly the same as what Microsoft are doing here, except they release major OS releases differently, so we as end users perceive it differently. Win11 supports most hardware configs from 2018 onwards. Those are now 8 year old devices, which arguably is better support than Apple. That means they are no longer supporting devices that are 9+ years old when Win10 ends (mainstream) support. So while those 4+ year old devices didn't get to install the major Win11 release when it first came out, they have been supported since. I think MS should do a yearly (major) release cycle like Apple and Google do, but the consequence of that is actually more e-waste than what's actually going on here. But the thing is we wouldn't complain as much. Apple drop devices almost each release of MacOS, maybe Microsoft should to. A yearly release would give them more control and be less jarring to users.

    • Nakamichi Dragon Dolby Atmos soundbars with massive quad subwoofers are amazing deals indeed by Sayan Sen If you are looking for a powerful soundbar system, Nakamichi is offering its powerful Dragon 11.4.6 soundbar with wireless subwoofers at the lowest-ever prices (purchase links under the specs list below). Typically, it is advised to have more than one subwoofer in your audio setup (the more, the merrier), as adding subs helps reduce bass nulls, and placement becomes less important. The Dragon has two subwoofers, and each of the subwoofer box units houses dual opposing 8-inch subwoofer drivers (so quad subwoofers in total), which means there is a lot of sub-bass output on this thing. Nakamichi promises an SPL (sound pressure level) of up to 125 dB for the whole system, which is super impressive, at least on paper; and the company claims the Dragon has a frequency response range covering 20Hz to 40kHz. Obviously, the SPL would be variable throughout with the highest 125 dB probably being around the mid-range of the audio spectrum. There are also more powerful variants of it with dual 12-inch subwoofers and quad 12 inch subwoofers that will produce much higher SPL at sub-bass frequencies compared to the dual-8-inch model. In terms of features, the Dragon is similar to the Shockwafe as it features Dolby Atmos, Vision, DTS:X Pro, and more. The key connectivity specs are given below: Connectivity Input 3 x HDMI 2.1 In Optical In Aux In Output HDMI 2.1 (eARC) Out Optical Out Aux Out Bluetooth: Version 5.0 with aptX™ HD USB: Type-A (Firmware Upgrade Only) Get the Nakamachi Dragon 11.4.6 soundbars with wireless subwoofers at the link below: Nakamichi Dragon 11.4.6 (Quad 8-inch subwoofers) Dolby Atmos and DTS:X Pro 3000 Watt Peak Power output: $2,499.99 (Sold and Shipped by Nakamichi LLC) Nakamichi Dragon (Dual 12" Subwoofers and passive radiators), Dolby Atmos and DTS:X Pro. 3500 Watt peak power: $4299.99 (Sold and Shipped by Nakamichi LLC) Nakamichi Dragon (Quad 12" Subwoofers), Dolby Atmos and DTS:X Pro. 5000 Watt peak power: $6499.99 (Sold and Shipped by Nakamichi LLC) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
