Have recently loaded pro version on Nexus 7 and am very impressed. Using HTML as the note format gives so much flexibility and easy styling via the style sheets option. It would be nice if the style could apply to the tree view as well as the notes, and also to be able to make use of user-defined images for the node icons, (separately for day/night).The yellow friend arrow is quite hard to see on a white background. Supporting JavaScript adds a whole new layer of fun to note taking so thanks for this great app. :-)

Thanks Avis for your support. All your ideas have been noted and added to my list of feature requests. Please leave feedback on Google Play, if possible, to help make NoteLynX more popular. Cheers.

I posted reviews on Google Play for both the free and Pro versions on 22/08/14 and would've e-mailed you a copy but couldn't find a contact address in the app. I'm also showing NoteLynX to friends who have Android. Keep up the great work!

It would be useful to be able to long-press images to zoom them. At the moment I am linking from a Note containing thumbnails, (size = 25%), to a separate Note with the same image file referenced at 100%.

AstroDean said...

Avis, I agree. In fact it used to be possible to pinch to zoom, but this stopped working after I added double tap to edit. I will try to get it working again.

Avis Griffin said...

Pinch and zoom is now working in the latest release. :-)

[Addison's promotional comment does not appear to be appropriate for this disscusion and should be removed. It is unethical and has ensured that I will not be rushing out to try the App.]

Export as HTML (Pro) is supposed to create an images folder!
It does not.
However I can copy the "images" folder from "User Guide" export and the other export projects then display correctly.

Mike, I just tested html export. It appears to be working normally. Have you tried it with other projects?

Kevin said...

Pardon my rookie question but what do the various colors of the links signify. My green one turned yellow and a child ( 1 of 3) seems to have merged into its parent. The merged child is now italicized above the parent in tree view. I've lost control of the data. Thanks

Kevin said...

Seems I have somehow inadvertently created a "link" relationship! Where can I find guidance on how to sever that relationship?

Mike said...

The copy links icon has gone. There is now a hand symbol. Help still references the copy link icon.

AstroDean said...

Mike, the hand icon is for drag and drop. The copy links icon is still there, it is 9th along. Tap update user guide to get the latest version.

Wish it had a copy and paste for script. As it is it has undo and redo? Also it remembers all links even from previous projects which makes it difficult to choose the one that I currently want to make? Especially when I'm rewriting the same project? Would be good if there was a way to clear that cache? Otherwise I'm glad to have purchased Pro. And feel that NoteLynX Pro has potentially solved my problem of wanting to be able to make pages of a pdf have links within themselves. Circumventing Adobe's costs was a hunting job to say the least. Granted I have to use an HTML to PDF app to make that happen eventually.... haven't even gone hunting for a good app for that as of yet. Thanks for all you've done, and do:)

I figured out how to copy and paste, and move items to rearrange in the tree mode. But I'm still wondering if there is a way to clear the links cache.

I used to use KAMAS, shareware, on MS-DOS and NoteLynX Pro reminds me of it a lot. I still have some outlines from that program and have used it via emulators on Windows, Linux and Android. On Windows, I also used Noteliner initially on a Windows XP machine and on a VM in Linux - now gone as well. I even found a version, not the last one, that worked on Windows 10. However, NoteLynx is much better adapted to a phone and tablet screen. I particularly like the use of html for ordered and unordered lists as well as tables. It also works well on my Chromebook. All these programs including NoteLynX are very powerful and, as such, have a long learning curve.
