[Bug 502020] Re: The notes system seems inconsistent
Yes, that's pretty much it. I'm now using Lucid Lynx 10.04 and the inconsistent design is still present here. I agree that the notes system as currently implemented might as well be removed. -- The notes system seems inconsistent https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/502020 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 502020] Re: The notes system seems inconsistent
It seems pointless forwarding this report upstream as I have done some research now and found this problem goes back at least as far as 2005. Obviously it has very low priority and not enough people want it fixed. I doubt anybody is seriously using the file/directory notes system as it stands now. IMHO I think it might be useful for attaching notes to directories but it is useless (or at least very cumbersome) to bother attaching notes to individual files using this system. -- The notes system seems inconsistent https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/502020 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 502020] [NEW] The notes system seems inconsistent
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus Hi, The file notes system isn't working for me. If I create a note for a file via the properties sheet the note won't appear in the side pane at all (in notes view mode). If I create a note for a file in the side pane it ends up being attached to the parent folder instead!? In any case it still will not appear in the side pane (I can only see it if I call up the file's property sheet). I'm baffled how this note system is supposed to work but it's pretty useless like this. The notes system shows promise, however I wish Nautilus would support the descript.ion note system as used in Total Commander in Windows with a note popup when you mouse over the filename or display the note as another column in the list view mode. Thanks for any help, Rod J.
