Thanks very much for additional info on the codeblock copy issue! Nothing like a solid bug report!
I'd never noticed the triple-click method to reproduce this, it's been very helpful as I've investigated the issue today. The issue goes deeper than I'd imagined. I have a solution in mind, but it's probably going to be 2-3 weeks until I can push out a fix due to weird tenacity of this seemingly trivial issue.
On Ctrl+Space
, there's one other way to use it which wasn't included in my last video. You can use it to remove all styles from the text you're about to type, (5 second video demo).
I'll definitely get YAML and INI syntax highlighting in there as well!
Thanks for dropping in! I'm glad to hear you like it overall! I definitely plan to address all of these issues in the coming weeks.
This one has proven shockingly tough to fix no matter what I've tried so far. Fortunately avoiding it is pretty easy until I can fix it properly.
The issue only occurs when you copy around a codeblock (including elements before or after the codeblock in your selection)
When copying from a codeblock you can use Ctrl+A
to select the entire contents of the codeblock and then copy that selection and it will be only the text you expect.
That is super annoying. I'm going to see what I can do about this. Currently pasted text will maintain its formatting when copying to a source that can accept html formatted text, but that doesn't do you much good for pasting into an editor.
I think I have some work to do on clarifying this. Let me know if I'm not understanding this one correctly.
Right now pressing Ctrl+Space
removes styles such as:
bold
italic
strikethrough
underline
code
but it won't affect the structural formatting of the note, for example lists
, codeblocks
, checkboxes
, etc.
Here's a quick example of that feature
I plan to introduce Ctrl+Enter
to remove the structural formatting. Actually, Recollectr had it in the past, but I ran into some minor issues so I pulled it until I could work them out. Again, let me know if I misunderstood this one.
Thanks again for your feedback /u/Dani21st! I'll act on all of these issues/suggestions and see what I can do about adding YAML
syntax as well. If there are any other languages you use which aren't included let me know about those as well and I'll look into adding them too!
I'm glad the additions have helped out! I hope that copy and paste is working better for you as well. I know there's still some bugs there, but is it sufficiently better that it doesn't generally interfere with you workflow?
Regarding codeblocks, you mean that the field doesn't scroll to the right as your text extends beyond the rightmost boundary of the codeblock, right? This is definitely on the todo list, but I've yet to find a way to do this gracefully. I'll bump it up a bit on the priorities list though!
In case I didn't get it right, I use Recordit for quick screen captures.
Thanks for the kind words /u/cmeslo!
Right now the search-functionality around tags is not very different from the normal search functionality, although we plan to add a few niceties built on the tagging system. You can certainly search by tags and it will only show notes which feature that tag, as well as the note for the hashtag itself, which is a collection of links to all notes which use that hashtag.
The tagging system is our newest addition, so it's not built out as far as I'd like, but I'm impatient and demanding so nothing is built out as far as I'd truly like! The best place to see more about the tagging system is our release announcement for version 3.15.
On Premium plans:
With regards to encryption, you'd have the option to encrypt your notes, which will affect them both locally and in the cloud. If you chose not to encrypt your notes then they would be stored in the cloud with only "at rest" encryption - meaning they'll be stored encrypted on our servers, but in a way where the data could be decrypted on our end since, but not by any unauthorized party, unless our own systems were to become compromised.
A Recollectr Premium plan is a great way to keep your notes in sync across multiple machines, and even on your mobile device via our Recollectr Mobile Alpha app.
Currently we do not support PayPal, although I'll look into whether that might be something we could support in the future.
As far as creating an account goes, the primary method to create one is via the app - although you can also register on our upgrade page.
I hope this helps!
Hey /u/encima - thanks for supporting our mission and for the feedback! I hope you're getting good use out of Recollectr!
The whole mobile experience from the on-boarding to the mobile app itself is still in the very rough and early stages - apologies that you didn't receive an invite email like for iOS. I double checked and you are invited. You can download the alpha version here.
As for auto-generated note titles - it wasn't something that had occurred to us, but it's something that will probably make its way into the app now that you've brought it to our attention.
Dates for titles are pretty self explanatory. Could you give an example of what you'd expect as far as unique IDs though? What sort of format would you expect, short random strings, UUIDs, or something else? Always pays to make sure you're building what the people need.
It's worth mentioning that built-in note-linking it coming. I'm hopeful we'll have it included in the next release. Tagging is planned to follow soon after that, as both share a lot of the same foundational logic.
Thank you for the feedback! We're always excited to hear from users, so get in touch whenever!
PS: We're working to roll out a feature request board on recollectr.io in the next few weeks which we'll share here when it's live!
Thanks for sending that over! It looks like a "safe" change we made to the auto-updater was not so safe.
The good news is, we've fixed it. The bad news is, you'll need to download the newest version manually from Recollectr.io.
Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for helping us catch this bug and squash it!
Thanks for following up! I'm glad to hear that took care of the issue!
It's odd that Recollectr hasn't updated itself. If you wouldn't mind sending your Recollectr log file to we'd be happy to figure out what might be going on there.
