Insert text through share intent #763

Closed KnIfER closed 4 years ago

KnIfER commented 4 years ago

I'd like to put serveral web paragraphs into one note through share or send to intent. But it will create new notes every time I send a text.

It's neater to put them togather.

What about a lock icon so that if it's locked, paragraphs will be put togather otherwise new note will be created?

Hi there, and thanks for your feedback on the argument. I'm one of the users that really do something similar a lot of times and what I do is the following:

  1. I search what I need and share images (mostly, in my case), links, text to ON
  2. Multiple notes are created for every single share action
  3. When finished I just merge them together, when you're doing this the notes' selection order is respected by merging

Having more simple workflows really helps to keep the app under the KISS principle, and this is on of the Omni Notes' strongest claims.

Merge is fancy feature though, didn't know that before!
