thanks for the great app. It's also very nice that it seems to open faster than almost any other app on the phone. Also the indent/bullet button is handy since i use the app mostly for todo-lists.

I am interested in using the sync through ubuntu one (I use tomboy on ubuntu), but I am feeling quite stupid atm since I can't seem to find anything about sharing anywhere in the conboy interface. I am using conboy 0.6.3 from extras on fremantle. Where can I configure conboy for syncing through ubuntu one?

thanks in advance
Sync is currently only available in the extras-devel version, because it's not completely stable yet. If you give it a try, please create a backup of your notes first (By using the backup app, or by copying /home/user/.conboy/ to a save place).

Feedback would be very welcome

Hi, thanks for your suggestions, but let me first say, that I'm not sure when/if I can realize them. My time is really limited and unfortunately Conboy is still very much a one man show. Also the uncertain situation about GTK apps on MeeGo is quite demotivating (but that another topic). But let's see....

Highlighting the search results is missing. True. Could you please file an enhancement request for that in bugzilla, so I won't forget about it.

I have to look into that. Not sure if it's easily possible. Tomboy is also not doing it. If it's important for you please file another/separate enhancement request.

Anyway to change this so it shows matching results whether the first letter is upper or lower case? Bear in mind that there is no way to change the first letter of your search from uppercase. When you type the first letter is uppercase and even if you press shift it is still uppercase. So to search to see if the word appears in the middle of the sentence I have to type Sstudent then delete the first S.
Yea, I've always wanted the search to be case insensitive. Unfortunately the GTK API made this really hard. I would say it even qualifies as bug. So please file it.

That also look like a bug. Please file it as well.

Sorry for putting the load on you, but I'll simply forget about it if I don't have a proper bug report. Thanks for using/testing/reporting

thanks Conny, I love this app and use it a lot!

A little feedback on the sharing by email. Personally, I'd prefer it if all the content of the note was displayed in the body of the email, instead of as an attachment.

Is that functionality possible?

Thanks for the feedback! But unfortunately I canīt change how the sharing is working. The behavior is defined by the Maemo platform. I can only pass in a file and the platform decides that it should be an attachment. Thereīs nothing I can do about it - sorry

Could you please start conboy from the terminal, then try to sync and paste the output you get in the terminal here or send it via PM. It's still not as stable as I want it to be, so this could help me find some more bugs.

Thanks!

Hi, great app it has thunderously helpful.
I wanted to ask if there would be any chance of a desktop widget to show a specific note? Not allow editing, just show a note and when you click on it it would open the note in conboy?

Thanks!

It would be great to have such a widget and I will support anyone who wants to develop it. Unfortunately I won't find the time to do it myself.

I was just using conboy to sync up some notes I have in Tomboy on my laptop so I can take a list to the hardware store, and I wanted to praise your app again. This (in concert with using Tomboy on Linux and Windows, and syncing it all with ubuntu one) is just great and is so useful. I haven't logged in to Evernote or used the yellow notes in Outlook since I started using this combo of apps. Thanks for your work on this!
