Beta Version download: 7 Sticky Notes v1.8k (5.62MB - May 16th) (details)

  • • Added Features
  • - Attending many requests I am proud to announce the much waited ONLINE SYNCHRONIZATION feature of 7 Sticky Notes to integrate it with DropBox, Google Drive, Microsoft SkyDrive, and many other online synchronization services!!! Check out below the cool funcions of this great new feature :)
  • ▪ When activated, 7 Sticky Notes will now create one single special Synchronization File which will hold all or any specific notes you want. With all notes inside it, you can then simply and easily syncronize this file using any online storage service, and now be able to send and receive your notes to any computer, anywhere you go!!
  • ▪ The synchronization file has 2x main sections: a Quick Sync area and a "Database Images" area
  • ▪ "Quick Sync" area: will hold any individual notes you want. On the Quick Sync you can work with one note at a time, so you can quickly send and receive any notes to your online storage
  • ▪ "Database Images" area: will hold entire database images of 7 Sticky Notes. This means that it will hold complete copies of your notes, so you can sync all your notes to and from anywhere, making sure all your notes are the same on any computer
  • ▪ The Online Sync is enabled from the options, under the "Sync" section. When enabled, it will enable the usage of the Sync File from many new functions that become available at the program.
  • ▪ Added a new "Copy note to Quick Sync" item to the notes right click menu, so you can easily send any notes to quick sync
  • ▪ Added a new main "Synchronization" item to 7 Sticky Notes program menu
  • ▪ Under the main "Syncronization" menu, you have now 4x functions:

  • - Sync Up Database Image: Creates a database image of the current 7 Sticky Notes database inside the synchronization file
  • - Sync Down Database Image: Replaces the current database by the most recent Database Image inside the synchronization file. A safe backup is saved before this action.
  • - Undo Sync Down Database Image: Undo the last "Sync Down Database Image", by restoring the current database with the latest sync backup (created before the sync down). A safe backup is also created before this action.
  • ▪ Added a new Online Synchronization Pane inside the Sync section of the program options, so now you can:
  • - Define the sync file location
  • - Enable multiple database images inside the sync file, and define up to how many there will be
  • - Define the maximum number of sync down (and undo sync down) local database backups
  • - Disable synchronization of Statistics (makes complete syncs a bit faster)
  • - Always ask for entering a comment when creating a database image in the sync file, so you can add any observation to Database Images
  • ▪ And lastly, all of these cool stuff are completely and easily integrated and managed by the new Sync File item of the Notes Manager! If you have the sync file enabled, a new "Sync File" item will show in the Notes Manager, allowing you to:
  • - Review all the notes inside the Quick Sync and Inside any Database Image
  • - Check and modify all Database Images, including its comments, numbers, and synchronization date/time, and check the sync date/time for any note inside the Quick Sync
  • - Delete individual database images
