same problem here...

anyone have a link to the older nvALT 2.0 version?

Brett, thanks for your brilliant work!

However, you do mention 'Lion fullscreen' among the newest features. But when using nvALT in fullscreen it's completely impossible to switch to other [fullscreen] applications or to call out Mission Control.

Don't you plan to add that kind of OS X compatibility?

Thanks once again,

Alex

Hi Brett

I already have converted to text files. I now want to throw everything into My Documents so I have only one large base. (Please note: I don't have subfolders anymore in my documents since I started tagging). In other words, rather than reading from the Notational folder, I would read from documents. Does that make sense?

Hi Brett

Would it make sense if I mix all of my notes inside my documents now that I have everything tagged? I would set preferences to : Read notes from Documents: What's your take on this?

Claude

I love it. But I think the ability to search the bunch of texts in the nvALT folder or in the database by tag would be a great feature. Anyway, by looking for this feature on the net, I found a little app to do this on my computer and it does a good job: [TagLists](http://hasseg.org/tagLists/ "Open the webpage"). Hope this kind of feature for the next release.

It's been a while since the original post. I figure it's time to check in and see if an estimated time line for 2.2 has been developed yet.

If you need beta testers, I'd be happy to volunteer.

A big "Thank you!" for the great work and a feature request: would it be possible to run multiple instances of NV/nvALT on the same machine?

This would be very useful if you had two different usage modes for NV. For instance I would like to use one instance as a daily journal and another instance as a data repository. Having these two types of notes mixed together can get a little confusing.

I tried running two copies at the same time, but they both look for the "Interim" file and one copy asks to quit the other as soon as it is launched.

any one having an issue with 'Find' on Lion, i have new macbook air and nothing is happening when hitting command-F

thanks for any help

Hey Brett, I've found a weird Simplenote syncing bug in 2.1: I use Markdown's "+" syntax (rather than "*") for lists, and have found that these sync to Simplenote as spaces. The characters remain correct in my local Notational Data files, so its only NValt pushing the incorrect characters to Simplenote.

Is this some kind of weird sanitisation bug? When I switch to my copy of Notational Velocity (which uses the same Notational Data folder) and force a sync by editing any of the files affected, they're restored to their proper state in Simplenote.

"The current features of nvALT are going to be merged into the main Notational Velocity trunk. nvALT will exist as a “cutting edge” development channel. We’re excited about this change and about bringing the additional features of nvALT to the wider NV audience."

Is there a roadmap/a more detailed announcement?

I have forgotten to add, that the note-files (I save them as rtfd) are not being read from local storage, except the newest one. However, nvALT is aware of them, as I can see it mentioning them in the log:

03.08.11 07:34:07 nvALT[393] com.apple.console FILE WAS MODIFIED: Lemmings Level 9 Code- OKJOLHCKCR.rtf

I don't know what changed them, it sure was not me, and not all notes got changed, but this is just to show, that nvALT is aware of the files, still does not load them (except first one) and does not sync with Simplenotes.

It seems that "Check Spelling While Typing" causes autocorrection (damn you autocorrect) of words even when "Use Automatic Text Replacement" (under the Edit menu) is turned off. Is this a feature or a bug?

Sorry, forget the last error. After restart it showed up on all spaces, as configured in the system prefs. Still, no sync.

02.08.11 15:35:47 nvALT[6978] com.apple.console collector-Fetcher(5FB8E0, https://simple-note.appspot... returned Interner Serverfehler

I can not get it to sync with Simplenote. I am on Macbook1,1 1.8GHz CoreDuo, 2GB RAM, OS X 10.6.8

Also, if I select to show nvALT on "All Spaces" it still only shows up on "Space 1"

Good point. I think I'll make it so if you turn on (in nvALT) "Convert imported URLs to Markdown" this happens. That way importing urls or text into nvALT gets converted to markdown.

Elastic threads doesn't have commenting enabled, so I'm posting my suggestion for the Safari extension here.

Currently "Create note from selection" results in a new note with the title extracted from the selection and the following body:

From <url>:

<selection>

I'd suggest making this more "Markdowny":

From [page_title](url):

> <selection> // proper Markdown blockquote indenting

For this I have updated global.js:

else if (event.command === "selToNV")
{
    if(event.userInfo.href==""){
        title = safari.application.activeBrowserWindow.activeTab.title; //titleFromBody(body);
        url = safari.application.activeBrowserWindow.activeTab.url;
        url = "From ["+title+"]("+url + "):";
        url = encodeURIComponent(url);
        //title = encodeURIComponent(title);
        body = event.userInfo.selection;
        if (body) {
            body = "> " + body;
        }
        body = body.replace(/(\r\n|\n+|\r)/gm,"\n");
        body = body.replace(/\n/g,"\n> \n> ");
        body = encodeURIComponent(body);    
        body = url + "%0D%0D"+body;
        nvText(title,body);
    }else{
        title = event.userInfo.selection;
        title = titleFromBody(title);
        url = event.userInfo.href;
        nvLink(url, title);
    }
}

after upgrading many entries have been modified, resulting in the "modified date" to be screwed!

sorting by date is now a mess, and is very hard to find my last notes, having hundreds of them...

Hmm, doesn't look like it actually syncs to Simplenote in Lion anyway. I have iPad with Simplenote right in front of me and I am keeping eye on it all day, waiting for notes to appear, but nothing is happening.

Thanks for the great update. Yet, I see a possible bug when looking up a word. When looking a word, the dictionary pops over and doesn't go away at all unless I restart the nvALT app. Or, sometimes the app crashes if I keep looking up other words.

nvALT 2.1 is great but I've found what might be a bug. When trying to save a PDF (via preview/print/Save as PDF…) it results in a plank page. I'm running 10.6.7

I have been using altNV for months, and just downloaded 2.1 and Marked. I use both on three Macs and sync with Simplenote, but wonder about best location for Notes Folder. I have been using common Notes Folder on Drop Box for all three Macs by changing Preference, and don't notice a problem.

Thoughts or recommendation? Thanks for great work.

I'm having the same problem--it won't launch on 10.5.8 on an Intel Core Duo iMac.

New nvALT wont launch on os x 10.5.8. Are you phasing out support for leopard?
