- When you have a list window and note window open, the app closes when you close the note. My expected outcome would be that it would jump to the list instead.
Yea, that's a bit annoying I know. The current unstable version fixes that. There's only one note window at the time and the list window is not a separate window but belongs to the note window.
You can't have the situation there that you have a list window without a note window.
- If you press list on the notes screen. It opens a new window instead of replacing the note. If you try to find one note and open a note, press list, open note, press list, open note, press list, open note you'll end up with a lot of open notes. Also: It's not consistent with opening a note from the list. The list window is replaced with the note.
I come from Palm and there you do everything from the list. You cannot have multiple notes open. So maybe it's just something i have get used to.
If you want to keep current behaviour, maybe you can open the note in a new window but keep the list in background. That way, when you close the note, you're back at the list.
I think the upcoming version is really much better with that and probably much more what you would expect. If you are a bit adventurous you can test it already. It's called conboy-unstable and you can find it in extras-devel.
I would consider it mostly stable, only the synchronization is still very buggy.
So it seems that i have to enable extras-devel then. It's faster than i thought Maybe possible to install from deb?
It's possible, but you also need some dependencies etc. I wouldn't recommend it. Instead turn on extras-devel. Install conboy-unstable. And then deactivate extras-devel again. If the phone offers you updates while extras-devel is activated, ignore them.
Also you need to uninstall conboy before you can install conboy-unstable. And to be on the save side, create a backup before you start
If that sounds too scary, then wait a bit. I'm hoping to push the new version to extras-testing quite soon. Maybe even on the weekend. It depends how much work I get done in Barcelona
I used to use a note taking app on Android called 3banana. They have a website where you edit your notes/add new ones/etc - it functions very similar to Google Notebook. When you edit a note on the Android client it then syncs to the website. This was very handy to have notes always accessible.
Is there any similar functionality with Conboy? I primarily use Windows PC's and would love the ability to sync/view my notes online.
Edit: Just discovered the Ubuntu one service and integration. Testing it out right now :-)
Edit2: Couldn't get it to Authenticate. Browser just ends up showing me a blank white page after I add the device to one.unbuntu.com - Logging out from desktop and N900 didn't help. Closing and relaunching Conboy didn't help.

Hi, there are bugs at the moment. The first bug is the problem that microb does not work as part of the authentication process. As workaround you can use fennec/firefox. But there is a second bug: It seems to be a problem to synchronize the first time conboy and ubuntu one. Conny, the author of conboy is aware of both bugs.
Sorry for not replying earlier. I was in Barcelona, first for the Maemo Hackfest, then for holidays
As Jukey said, there are still a couple of bugs. Most on my side, but also some on Ubuntus side. I'll try to fix those as soon as I can, but unfortunately I'm currently also busy with "normal life" stuff.
Watch this thread. I'll announce everything here
It seems that the standard Maemo5 approach is to have a standard "share" icon in the app's toolbar. That icon pulls up a menu of "sharing services" (like Evernote) and sends whatever the app is doing to whichever service is selected.
Looks like it's one-way (push). Would such a scheme work for Conboy ?
Pushing like this through the sharing plugins should be possible. But before we send the note we need to convert it to something other services will understand. Probably HTML would be best? Does anybody know which formats evernote accepts via this its Maemo5 plugin?
