- What's New in Stickies! 3.0
-
- * Multiple note sets! Instead of a single "active set," you can now
- have 10 named note sets that you can quickly switch between.
-
- * Styles! You can create named styles that contain all the color,
- font, alarm, etc., settings for a note, and then apply those styles
- to notes, or even have Stickies! prompt you with a list of styles
- whenever you create a new, blank note.
-
- * Configurable sound effects! See the "For registered users" section
- for details.
-
- * Programming function keys! You can assign nearly all Stickies!
- internal functions to the function keys F1 through F12.
-
- * Locked program option! You can password protect Stickies!, which
- prevents casual access to your notes (those in your note sets as
- well as those in your file cabinet).
-
- * Autoload notes! You can create a standard Stickies! export file with
- a single note, and have Stickies! load that note when you create a
- new blank note. This provides a simple yet effective "forms" feature.
-
- * Greater configurability! Many users have sent us suggestions, and we
- incorporated several of them into the global options dialog, giving
- you more even control over how Stickies! works. The new options are:
-
- - Refiling confirmation. You can now turn off the refiling notice that
- Stickies! displays to tell you where a note has been filed after you
- use the Ctrl-Z shortcut key.
-
- - Inheriting parent note's font and color. When you create a new note
- by double clicking on its caption bar, Stickies! will optionally use
- that note's color and font for the new note.
-
- - Prompting for new note's style. You can tell Stickies! to prompt you
- with the list of your defined note styles when you create a new,
- blank note.
-
- - File cabinet double click setting. Before version 3.0, Stickies!
- would treat a double-click on a note's title in the file cabinet as
- a "copy" command; now you can tell Stickies! to checkout the note
- instead.
-
- - Link button re-ordering. There are new buttons on the link config.
- dialog that you can use to change a link's position on its note.
-
- * Improved Usability! Is there such a thing as a program that doesn't
- need usability enhancements? We don't think so. Here's the latest
- set of improvements to Stickies! in this area:
-
- - Quick close file cabinet dialogs. If you hold down the shift key when
- you click on the Copy, Checkout, or Close buttons on the folder browser
- dialog, Stickies! will perform the requested action and then close both
- file cabinet dialogs.
-
- - Refile option when deleting a note. When you delete a non-blank note,
- Stickies! will give you the option of refiling it in the file cabinet,
- if possible.
-
- - Refile option for expired notes. Similar to the above option, Stickies!
- will give you the option of refiling an exported note, when possible.
-
- - Minimize all Notes and Restore all Notes menu options. There are new
- options on the main program's Arrange Notes menu to minimize or restore
- all the notes in your active set.
-
- - UNC-style filename compatibility. Stickies! will now accept UNC-style
- filenames (e.g. \\fred\temp\file.doc as opposed to c:\temp\file.doc).
-
- * Surface notes hotkey! You can use a new global hotkey, Ctrl-Shift-S,
- to "surface" all your notes anytime Stickies! is running. This is a
- handy way to quickly check your notes when you're working in another,
- full-screen Windows program.
-
- * Export all notes as text option. Several customers have asked us for a
- way to combine all the text from their active notes into a single, plain
- ASCII file. Here it is.
-
- For registered users:
-
- * Configurable sound! You can turn each Stickies! sound on or off, and
- assign built-in sounds or your own WAV files to each event.
-
- * More history! Once again, the today-in-history database has been
- expanded.
-
- Please note that Stickies! now requires Microsoft Windows 3.1.
