  • Two U3 packages of PNotes (include English only and all language files respectively) are now avalable for download. The packages are created by UnderMiner.
18 January 2008 - PNotes 3.0 released.
  • Simple edit box is replaced by rich edit - since now any portion of note's text can be formatted separately, applying font properties, highlighting and alignment
  • Added hyperlinks recognition
  • Added option for autosave mode - all notes will be autosaved in appointed interval
  • Each note can now be saved by pressing Ctrl+S
  • First characters of note are now used as default note's name instead of creation timestamp
  • Added Drag-&-Drop support
  • Added "Save All" command
  • Because of rich edit format each note is stored as separate file, instead of previous versions, where all notes are saved in single notes.pndb file. Notes from previous versions can be imported by choosing "Preferences->Misc->Get notes from previous versions"
  • Command line arguments are changed as well. In previous version swicth -config had two arguments: Notes.ini file location and optional Notes.pndb file location. In the current version -config still has two arguments, but the second optional arguments is now "data" directory location, and should not be a file name
  • Bug fixed - notes are saved automatically on system shutdown (if option "Save all on shutdown" is selected)
  • Skins from previous versions are incompatible with new one
