Description Martin Senftleben 2024-02-21 10:56:30 UTC
SUMMARY
I want to try out kjots but am unable to do anything. The only option, that is available, is "delete notebook", all other options are grayed out. I noticed that my KJots has version 5.1.1, I installed it using yay from within Manjaro. There it actually says 5.1.1-3


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. start kjots
2. click on "file" menu
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Only "delete", "print preview" and "end" are enabled, all other options are disabled. I can also not write directly into any field.

EXPECTED RESULT
I should be able to create a notebook and notes in order to write down ideas etc. within the notebook

macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: Manjaro

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

KJots has been retired for almost a year, all bugs for it are being closed.

Quoting the public announcement
https://kontact.kde.org/blog/2024/2024-07-01-kde-pim-may-june-2024/#retiring-kjots-and-knotes

We have decided to retire the KJots and KNotes applications. These applications have not seen any support or development in many years and are not in a state that we feel comfortable shipping to our users. With the introduction of Marknote, KDE can now offer a modern, well-maintained note-taking application that we can recommend users to migrate to. The latest release of Marknote has gained support for importing notes from KJots and KNotes, so no notes will be lost.
