If OneDrive has a mobile API it should work.

I'll look into that - cheers.

Firebase looks interesting Stam - another learning curve than have to wait though.

Do you use it ?

No not really. I am aware of it because it’s often recommended for use with Flutter - and is a way to provide notifications on android or some such… at some point I created an API key for it when I was playing around with Flutter. Might be interesting to see how usable it is with LC, but not really aware of anyone that’s done that…

I've not created any API keys yet - a completely new topic for me.
Hopefully I'll be able to get my head around it.

Download and install went smooth. Pretty neat application. Just played around with it a bit and created some notes. Suspect it is right in front of me but how do you delete a note?

I have a note app that i built as well, not nearly as fancy as yours, but I use a data grid and have a date created and due date columns that you can sort which i think would be helpful if you start getting a number of notes added into yours.

the auto hide feature you have is slick freeing up your screen space. I will have to try to figure out how to do that.

Nice job!

Thanks Lance, I appreciate the feedback and kind words.

Sorting is definitely something I'm going to add in, you are absolutely right, it could do with it.

To delete a note you just delete the content - empty files are deleted when you return to the list view; this approach negates a button. Likewise there is no Save button, files are saved whenever the focus is removed from the field, along with a few other triggers.

The autohide took a bit working out, although it seems easy in hindsight. I suspect there are a few other ways to achieve it other than what I came up with.

Let me know how you get on, I'm happy to share what I did, but of course half the fun of Livecode is trying to work it out and it would be interesting to compare approaches when you've developed yours.

I have EdgeNotes v2 in development, I've added a few features and tightened up a few things. I've also added multiscreen support, so now you can move it from the main screen to screen 1 or 2.

Hello MrAlobar,

thanks for the reply. Tested just deleting the content and that worked well. I looked a bit further and you do call that out in the user experience, I should have caught that.

I will make some time soon to try to auto hide and share what i come up with -or- ask you for some help:).

on sorting, I have been trying to work with PolyGrid lately, that could be a good widget to handle the notes list and sorting. I have a example stack I built to help me learn some of the features. Let me know if interested and more than happy to share it.

I will get back on MS Store and get a rating posted for you as well.

thanks.

Hello Jay,

I received your PM note but system will not let me reply to it. I have not used this forum very much and sounds like i need to have more posts before i can do the private messages.

thx.

[MrAlobar]

I didn't know about that restriction. No problem.
Thanks for letting me know Lance.
