Description jms 2019-10-16 20:48:29 UTC 
plasma notes can create only one unique sticky note.
New note will be duplicate of first note.
..they mirror each other


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. add widget ->create a note (A)on desktop ->write in it
2. then go to add widget in order to add a new note (B) on the desktop
3. you ll see a new note with same content as in note A changing content in note A will change content of not B and vice-versa

OBSERVED RESULT
new note content is duplicate of other note.
Note content is not independent


EXPECTED RESULT
notes: we should be able to create several independent notes as before

Can you make a screencast of this, please.
Comment 2 David Edmundson 2019-10-16 21:51:08 UTC 
I think OP's reporting a wishlist item for two notes to share the same file, rather than a bug.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2019-10-16 22:06:14 UTC 
Upon close reading I think a bug is being reported here whereby all notes inappropriately share the same content. I can't reproduce the issue, though.

yep that's it.
my install is less than 3 weeks old all shiny and supposedly not yet messed up.
only upgraded from previous framework/plasma/app.
did not try to add multiple notes before upgrade.

I ll try a screencast

do you need more infos?
Comment 9 jms 2019-11-06 20:40:59 UTC 
ok so there was a bug but not from note.
for info
this bug came from amd ryzen and how it set uuid.
see for info
https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/cff976/are_keyboard_shortcuts_broken_on_51631/euvol55/
all uuid created are the same.
 
doing a bios update (or microcode) will solve the problem.
Works for me
Comment 10 David Edmundson 2019-11-06 20:59:09 UTC 
Wow, would I would never guessed that.

We do use UUIDs in the note filename.

Thanks for following up on that.
