Description tnagy 2003-10-10 18:03:46 UTC
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 3.3.1 -O3 -march=athlon-xp
OS:          Linux

Colors could help to remember what the note is about and bring more attention to a particular note. It would be nice if knotes had something for that : right -click on a note then label then a category of label.

I recommend the following themes and colors, mostly inspired by mozilla-mail :

work (orange)
personal (green)
important (red)
later (blue)
none (yellow)

I have started to write a patch for that .. I also found a bug : knotes does not
update the statusbar popup menu when the color of a note is changed (with the
preferences).

I made this patch for changing the colors of the knotes easily.

on the same note, it would be great if knotes accepted draganddrops from color pickers just like nautilus does, that way I can use kcolorchooser or the kcolorchooser kicker applet to colorize my notes quickly.  Thus I can pick any color in the screen with the kicker applet then drag the color ball to the knotes note and have it match visually the color that I selected.  Very useful.

You can set the color by the settings dialog of the note.
About the category, this is already in the wishlist.

Closing this bug.
