Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

It would be great if the Notes applet had an option to add a new note directly from it's interface, even if it was just a context menu option.

Could you explain it with an example?

Thanks for contributing! :-)

Add a "Add Note" entry to the context menu, or add a button in the note istelf to create a new note, so it should add another applet to the desktop with the new note, or if this is not possible, add a Stackedwidget with all the notes. Something like that :)

I think it would be cool with a note "stack" widget (think: post it notes in the real world). You should be able to write on the top note, but also drag it from the "stack" and drop it somewhere on the desktop (thus creating a regular note widget).

I don't know if stack is the correct term, but I mean something like this: http://www.avivadirectory.com/trivia/post-it-note.jpg

Hello!

This feature request was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this feature request is already implemented in Plasma 5, or is no longer applicable.

Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this feature request. If the requested feature is still desired but not implemented in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting

If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging

Thanks for your understanding!

Nate Graham
