Feature Request: Automatic export to the last known file location #37

Open dehahost opened 4 years ago

dehahost commented 4 years ago

Hi. I am using MicroPad for a while and I like the export feature. It basically keeps my notepad in sync over rsync with my other machines and also backed up on the external drive. It would be awesome to add automatic export to the last known exported file location and some rules when to export - after defined amount of minutes or when user closes MicroPad or switches notebook/note etc.

Is that for the "Export All" or just on one notebook?

dehahost commented 4 years ago

This is for one notebook that had been exported manually by user (so micropad knows where the export lives) and is loaded/currently used. Then the options what triggers next automatic export can be set (on the same notebook settings modal, next to the export button? or on the special one?).

Okay, that makes sense. I'm pretty busy right now but it's on the todo list, thanks!

You can currently use Ctrl+S/Cmd+S and Ctrl+O/Cmd+O to save/open notebooks just like you would with Microsoft Word. That might hopefully save some time instead of going to the modal.

Cool! You are welcome.

I must admit, that I have never looked before what is inside the Help notebook, as I usually explore built in features by WWTTDBCOI method (Watch What That Thing Does By Clicking On It). So I tried that keyboard shortcuts and they works like a charm. Thanks.
