[Announce] Sticky Notes - the ultimate notes widget
Hi Everyone!
I'm glad to announce the newest of all Maemo 5 widgets: Sticky Notes. It is a little application that lets you create as many notes on as many desktops in as many colours as you want!
Please, install and test it, then post your opinions and ideas here. Any input is welcome! I will be glad if you give it a test drive!

Features that are welcome to be implemented These are popular feature requests that require a bit more time than I actually have for the project. They are welcome to be implemented by anyone else, though. I will gladly accept a patch.
I wish to thank my users for their votes in the first N900 coding competition. (http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=58928) You want a paid app? Donate instead! I promise that Sticky Notes will be always freely available to anyone. However, I read from many people on this forum that they need more paid apps for Maemo. While I don't intend to make Sticky Notes a paid app, I'd like to present those of you who want to have a "paid app", or just show their appreciation a way to do so. https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_donateCC_LG.gif If you feel that you want to support the development of Sticky Notes, simply click on the button above. Credits I would like to express my special thanks to tswindell [alterego on IRC] (whose idea helped solve the problems with the multiple-widget approach), w00t (who helped me with every Qt-related question I had), and eitama (who helped me get through autobuilder)! Also many thanks to the great people at #maemo, and especially #qt-maemo! Special thanks to qwerty12 who helped with the most embarassing bugs I ever had and lcuk who answered every random question I had! |

EDIT: This has been fixed.
Okay, I noticed that there is some issue with the pre-removal and post-installation scripts of the app - it displays an error message after installation. Note that despite this, you can still launch the app from the app menu. Anyone who is familiar with Debian packaging is welcome to help. |
Re: [Announce] Sticky Notes - the ultimate notes widget
That looks great! It always felt like a weird omission to not have a decent finger optimized sticky notes app for Maemo 5, but this fits every feature request I had! Even not being tied to hildon-home.
Rare to see an application that gets so many things right on the first release :P |
Re: [Announce] Sticky Notes - the ultimate notes widget
I have attempted to install your application, but the installation failed with a "unable to install" message.
After checking the app menu and app manager (restart included), it appears not to have indeed not installed. |

The annoying thing about this bug is that everything works correctly if I build the app on my own machine. The problem only occours when the autobuilder builds it. If I can't resolve the issue with extras-devel today, I will post a .deb file in here that actually works. |

I think I saved all the files with Unix line endings... But this doesn't explain why it is working for me with MADDE? |

Re: [Announce] Sticky Notes - the ultimate notes widget
Thanks. Will give this a try. Was using Simple Note Widget but that no longer works with PR 1.2. Then I started using what I think is called Simple Notes Applet. Prefer it to Simple Note Widget as can have multiple pages. However, edges of text keeps get cut off.

The same files are good for MADDE, but are messed up by the auto-builder. |
