mNotes problems
 

I just installed mNotes, and I can't get it to work. If I press any of the three buttons on the left bottom (+, pencil, screen), I get Untitled added to the left pane. This happens regardless of what field my cursor is in or if I have anything selected. If I click the Magnifying Glass icon, then all entries in the left pane (all of which just say Untitled) disappear. If I doubleclick on any of the Untitleds in the left pane, nothing happens.

So the only place I can even add anything is in the right pane (where it says "Welcome to mnotes"), but when I close and re-open the app, none of what I've written is saved.

The only menus I have are Launch Google Sync, Preferences, and About. None of those let me save or add anything, either.

Am I missing something??

Thanks!

+ adds a new blank text note, pencil adds a drawing/handwritten note, picture allows you to take a image with the camera (or load one from internal memory or sd card(s)) as a note.

inputting some text and tapping the magnifier searches all text notes (and likely titles on the other two) for a match.

with a blank search you bring all your notes black after a search.

x will remove the note your currently loooking at.

and i have never seen any problem with saved notes, as long as they have some kind of content.

Sorry, I haven't tried this, but I will tonight.

Does mnotes sync with google docs?

Re: mNotes problems
 

tso, thanks for your reply.

I uninstalled and re-installed but with the Developer repository disabled. Now I have the simpler mNotes (0.1.3-1 instead of 0.3.1-1, without the pencil etc., and this one functions. Well, I guess that's why the other Version is still in the Developer repository; apparently I had some sort of conflict or missing dependency.

Re: mNotes problems
 

could be, im using the dev version and i have no issues so far with this version. but it may well be that i have some extra stuff installed...

one way to see if something is wrong is by launching mnotes via terminal, as then errors will show up there.

Re: mNotes problems
 

How would I do that? Just entering mnotes (or mNotes) at the $ prompt doesn't do it.

Re: mNotes problems
 

try the tabcomplete, seems its mnotes.launch.

Re: mNotes problems
 

I re-installed 0.3.1-1 and launched it from Xterm; what I got is over my head:

$ mnotes.launch
init pref

Re: mNotes problems
 

What Google App would mNotes 0.3.1 be synching with if it worked for me: Google Notebook?

Re: mNotes problems
 

google notebook is about to be removed so I hope it is not that one.. a sync to the fantastic evernote app whould be nice. :)
