- Overview on plugins for Tray Helper..

This plugin allows you to create and stick notes to your Windows desktop. Forget about yellow notes around your workplace.

This plugin works in two different modes:

STICKY NOTES ON DESKTOP
PART OF TRAY HELPER

First mode: STICKY NOTES ON DESKTOP

When you work with ANY other application and Tray Helper with Notes plugin is running in background. You can create a sticky note without restoring Tray Helper !
You have to hold for a while a combination of keys defined in "Configuration" menu of plugin. On default it's "CTRL + N".
After a second or two - such a sticky note as above should appear on the screen.

1 - Enter here a title of your note. If you press save button (no. 2) - this title will appear on the title bar of window.
2 - Here you can save your sticky note - if it's a new note - it will be added to your collection of notes. If it's not a new note this button will apply all changes.
3 - Here you can decide if you want your sticky note to be ALWAYS on top (

) of all other applications or not (

).
4 - This button closes a note. If it was saved before - you will have access to it via Tray Helper.
5 - This button works in a bit different way you're used to. It does not close a sticky note - it will minimize it or restore (it depends on current state). Minimized note shows only a title bar and this button.
6 - Here is a main text of your note. You can edit it here. Please remember to apply changes by using button no. 2

Second mode: PART OF TRAY HELPER

In this mode you can view and work with all your notes.

1 - Here is a list with all your notes. You can view a basic info about each note such: title, length, dates of creation and last modification. If you double click on note you will be able to view and edit a text of note.
2 - You can preview a text of note by holding a right mouse button over a selected note. Please read a content of this box on picture - there are some nice tips.
3 - Click here to add a new note.
4 - Click here to find a note. It's a very useful option. If you have many notes it could be hard to find a specific one. This menu will help you - just enter a string to search !
5 - This button allows you to view or edit content of selected note. You can do the same action by double clicking on note in list box no. 1.
6 - Here you can put a selected note to desktop (make it a sticky note).
7 - Here you can define a combination of keys that will be creating a sticky notes for you. Default is: "CTRL + N".
