Changelog

A curated list of notable changes and improvements in each release.

v2.8.0

Inline Images, IME Support, Collapsible Notes & Nested Todos

New
  • Inline image display — pasted and dropped images render directly in notes with resize options (Full, Medium, Small) and WebP compression
  • Collapse notes to header-only view to save screen space — use the new arrow toggle in the header, works with pinned notes
  • Editable note titles — double-click the header to rename notes with custom titles separate from content
  • Nested todo checklists with Tab/Shift+Tab indentation, word wrapping, and multi-line selection support
  • Full input method (IME) support for Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and other Asian languages on Linux (fcitx5/ibus, Wayland) and Windows
  • Official Snap Store packaging for easy installation on Ubuntu and other Linux distributions
  • Semi-transparent pill background for header icons to improve visibility against varied note colors
  • Completely restyled Trash dialog with theme-aware borders, backgrounds, and hover effects
  • Dedicated Remove Link action in the context menu for easier link management
Improved
  • Improved code block auto-detection accuracy with enhanced heuristics for YAML and SQL patterns
  • Dramatically improved performance when showing or hiding large numbers of notes (30+) using batched processing
  • Completed missing translations for shortcuts, help dialog, and settings strings across all languages
Fixed
  • Backspace on empty code block now properly clears formatting instead of getting stuck
  • Formatting toggles (bold, italic, strikethrough) now work reliably when selecting entire lines
  • Closing a note from the taskbar or window manager no longer causes it to disappear — the note now hides properly and remains managed by the hub's hide/show logic
  • Fixed font family sync when moving cursor between code blocks and regular text
  • Fixed color palette selections not applying correctly in packaged builds
v2.7.0

Code Blocks, Custom Shortcuts & a Visual Overhaul

  • Redesigned search dialog with hover previews, relative dates, and sortable columns
  • Redesigned Notes Hub with modern SVG icons, cleaner layout, and improved reminder badge visibility
  • Remove Link option in right-click menu — strip hyperlinks while keeping the text
