#NoorNote first impression:

+ Signer: setup is straight forward

+ System Logs: make it easy to see under the hood

Improvement Suggestions:

- NoorNote seems to capture some (all?) shortcuts even though it is not in focus. Example: NoorNote is the top window on the other screen. On the current screen, when typing in SublimeText, Cmd + Left (to go to the beginning of the line )doesn't work because NoorNote handles it (it goes back).

- The Right pane (with system logs) seems under utilized e.g., tap on a thread in the timeline could open the full thread on the right vis-a-vis a mail client. It would be good to be able to open multiple threads in multiple tabs e.g., by doubl clicking.

Oh, okay, I didn't realize it catches all the shortcuts.

Yeah, the right pane gets more use with the search function and lists. But I can add a setting so threads can open there too.

Thanks for the feedback!

Mind if I ask which version you're using? Linux or Mac?

I am on a mac version 0.2.16 . I just pressed Cmd+Left in this text box, and I can see that it went "back" in the page behind it.

yeah, the search function is great. kudos!

Ok, the global shortcut catch is deactivated and opening stuff in right pane is implemented. It’s in the next release insh'Allah.

confirmed fixed.

reporting another bug :-) 0.3.3 on mac.

shortcuts should be handled in correct context. For example,

1. Open the new note or reply popup (the one that has a textbox to type).

2. type some gibberish.

3. You want to select text to the beginning of line so that you can start typing over it so you press "Cmd + Shift + Left"

Instead of selecting text to the beginning of line, noor note captures it as command input on the UI behind it.

And this one is easy to fix: The X button (the close button?) behaviour. On macs, if you click X on a window, the canonical behavior is for the window to close/hide. It should not quit the application (You choose "Quit" from the application menu or use "Cmd + Q") to quit.

I keep quitting NoorNote because I am used to using the X button to hide windows. But then I have to relaunch and re-enter my signer password.

Note: I am reporting these issues under the assumption that you want the feedback. let me know if it is a nuisance and I'll stop.

No, it's good that you reported that to me. Thanks a lot! As a developer, you have kind of a limited view of your own product.

This is also fixed.

confirmed that iit minimizes the window. This is still not canonical UX but better than before.

This is now fixed in the next release.
