Description
Some enhancements to implement into the current version of the Notes View:
- ~~Should be very selective about which types of plugins are recorded. There's no real benefit to capturing every selection that is made, but there probably is when it comes to adding/deleting elements, for example. The plugin reporter already provides the ability to tag plugins, could make use of this (and presumably update plugin tags to suit).~~
- ~~The edit/delete buttons take up a lot of space on manual notes, could be moved to the header line, or only appear on hover or something similar to reduce clutter.~~
- Manual notes support HTML or Markdown for a bit more expressiveness. Similarly, also the ability to customise the colour of each note.
- The UI for creating a new note takes up a lot of space on the pane that could be used to view more notes, suggest moving the create a new note functionality to a pop-up window.
- The UI for the notes themselves are bigger than needed, so not as many notes are visible at a given time. Resolve this by reducing how the information on each note is displayed.
Crossed out have been addressed to some degree in other tickets
Additional Information
Any additional information, configuration or data that might be necessary to reproduce the issue.
Suggestion to move the Edit/Remove buttons to the top of the Notes as they can be hard to find when they are in the middle of a long note, also ability to navigate between notes or add in a time based filter.
This issue is stale because it has been open for 6 months with no activity. Consider reviewing and taking an action on this issue.
