It would be nice with the possibility to set a "global hotkey", which would trigger the notes, like left-clicking the panel icon. This, combined with "always on top", would make a nice, keyboard-only solution to note taking. I would personally use Super+N ...
just bind a shortcut (xfce4-keyboard-settings) to xfce4-popup-notes regards, - m
This is not doable when notes is running as a panel plugin. It works when it's a tray-icon. But thanks, I guess it'll do fine for me :-)
than it sounds like a bug. what version of xfce4-notes do you currently have? and you tried to run xfce4-popup-notes, not xfce4-notes, right?
This bug pertains at least to xfce4-notes version 1.7.7-2ubuntu1 (I haven't been able to check if it is fixed in 1.8). If `xfce4-notes &` is executed from the command-line, then `xfce4-popup-notes --show-hide` shows the notes, but does not hide them. If it has been launched from the panel plugin and the "Hide notes from taskbar" option is unchecked, then `xfce4-popup-notes --show-hide` shows the notes, but doesn't hide them. If it has been launched from the panel plugin and the option is checked, then `xfce4-popup-notes --show-hide` neither shows nor hides the notes.
I have the same error. I can show, but not hide the notes. xfce4-notes-plugin 1.8.1-1 in Arch Linux.
