I need to reset the phone in order to restore the behaviour.

It will take more time to study the problem. Hope that I could get solution from Qt community.
The stuck in portrait thing IMHO is a known Maemo bug, I played around with the transitions.ini file and now it doesn't happen anymore (or at least not as frequently).

ah yes , I also usually use it for note taking

The sort options suggestion is good. What if I make a sort option based on "Creation date"(the one using now) and "Last modified time"?

By the way , any user find that PenPen is a lot less responsive then sketch in drawing?
Nice.

Sorting by creation/modified date with date saperator labels - similar to the N900's default photo program's month/year labels - would also be great.

If you have any problem in using the software or would like to suggest for a feature, please feel free to let me know.
Zooming and Undo would be useful.

Sorry for keeping silent. Recently I am busy on another N900 application , FrontView . (More function should be added , but I gave up finally)

In fact, in my original plan , what I want to implement is a handwriting task list management and a brainstorming tool (not exactly a mindmap , but have similar function) . After a full day of work, I changed the mind , make a sketch book first. As the interface is more simple , and the developed module can be reused later.

Therefore , I prefer to keep the interface of PenPen Sketch Book as simple as possible. Optimized for note taking , and then create another software (e.g PenPen Brainstormer? PenPen Tasks?) for task and mindmap.

Well, animation will be fun, but it drags several other features with it - to be able to duplicate the last note and to edit the lines (deleting and then painting anew will be probably cumbersome). But if you decide to give it a go, you have my vote too.

Then I will be waiting for PenPen Brainstormer then .

Is it possible to add a tiny function of moving "sketches" around to re-arrange the order in current penpen ? I am using penepn for brainstorm also , but it takes me awhile to find the right sketch for right project I am working on , so , re-arrange sketch order can be much helpful if possible .

I can say penpen is the best note taking tool I have been using on a mobile device , which has unlimited space with easier UI .

I agree with the preference to keep things as simple as possible.

This app as it is achieves the ideal for a quick memo/scribble app - making a note with it is as fast as reaching for a pen and paper.

I'm definitely in favour of :

Zoom

Full screen mode :-)

Unlimited canvas is very cool feature. But one function that I still feel too clumsy is panning around the sketch. When making a sketch even clicking the pan mode -icon feels too much - .

What information data does the n900 touchscreen provide? Position, pressure and the press-area size? f it provides the area size, it would be possible to do the pannin like this:
1 small size, propably fingernail or stylys -> draw
2 big size, probably fingertip -> pan

ie. panning with finger, drawing with sharp edge (you really cant draw with finger anyways)

The panning could also be done with fake multitouch: when you are pressing with one finger and then press in other place at the same time, the pressing point is interperated in between. So: if the jump of the pressure point is unrealisticly big, start panning mode.
-> panning with two fingers

Looks good, downloading now!

EDIT: What are the big differences with this and the original sketch on the N900?
