Using Notes in Listee

Learn how to use the Notes feature to complement your tasks.

Notes Overview

The Notes feature in Listee allows you to keep important information, ideas, or context related to your categories. Each category can have one dedicated note area.

Key Features

  • Dedicated Note per Category: Each category has its own note space.
  • Title and Content: Notes consist of a title and a main content area.
  • Inline Editing: Easily edit the title and content directly on the page.
  • Simple Formatting: The content area supports basic text. (Future updates may include Markdown support).

Accessing Notes

When you navigate to a category, the note associated with that category will be displayed alongside your task list.

  • Task List Area: Typically on the left or taking up a significant portion of the screen.
  • Note Area: Displayed in a separate section, often to the right or below the task list on smaller screens.

Creating and Editing Notes

Notes are automatically available for each category. If a note hasn't been edited yet, it will appear with a default title (e.g., "CategoryName Note") or placeholder text.

Editing the Note Title

  1. Locate the Note Title: This is usually displayed prominently at the top of the note area.
  2. Click the Title: Clicking on the title text will transform it into an editable input field.
  3. Make Changes: Type your new title.
  4. Save:
    • Press Enter to save the changes.
    • Click the "Save" button that appears next to the input field.
  5. Cancel:
    • Press Escape to discard changes and revert to the previous title.
    • Click the "Cancel" button.

Editing the Note Content

  1. Locate the Content Area: This is the main body of the note.
  2. Click the Content Area: Clicking within the content area will transform it into an editable textarea.
  3. Make Changes: Type or paste your note content.
  4. Save:
    • Press Ctrl+Enter (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+Enter (Mac) to save.
    • Click the "Save" button that appears below the textarea.
  5. Cancel:
    • Press Escape to discard changes and revert to the previous content.
    • Click the "Cancel" button.

If the content area is empty, you might see a placeholder like "Click to add content...".

Use Cases for Notes

  • Task Context: Store detailed descriptions or background information for tasks within a category.
  • Meeting Agendas/Minutes: Prepare for meetings or jot down key takeaways related to a project category.
  • Brainstorming: Capture ideas and thoughts related to a specific topic or category.
  • References: Keep links, code snippets, or other reference materials handy.
  • Drafting: Use it as a scratchpad for drafting emails or other text before moving it elsewhere.

Tips for Effective Note-Taking

  • Keep it Concise: While there's space for detail, try to keep notes focused on the category's theme.
  • Use Clear Titles: A good title helps you quickly understand the note's purpose.
  • Regularly Review: Periodically review your notes to ensure they are still relevant.
