Description Milon 2025-06-27 12:32:51 UTC
The current Sticky Notes widget is limited by its lack of multiple note support. Implementing this feature, similar to the built-in Windows Sticky Notes app, would greatly enhance its usability.

Can you please explain your idea in more detail? The Notes widget supports having multiple notes on the Desktop or in panels.

A screenshot of the Windows Sticky Note app showing what you're wanting  would be especially helpful. Thanks.

In the sticky notes widget there is no option to create multiple notes.

From what I understand, you want to be able to create a new note from an existing note widget, without having to add a new widget. That sounds like a worthwhile convenience.

I still would encourage you to add a screenshot of what you would like to see, so make sure what the developers look at implementing matches what you want.
