Notebook  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 7.3.0.1
by: Phanx, Cirk

I am no longer developing or maintaining World of Warcraft addons. I haven't played in years, and don't have the time or interest to continue working on addons for a game I don't play anymore. If you are an addon author interested in continuing one of my addons, please see https://phanx.net/addons/. If you are an addon user, sorry, but there won't be any more fixes or updates from me.
Save and share notes in-game!
Notizbuch: Speichert und teilt Notizen im Spiel.
Cuaderno: Escribir y compartir notas en el juego.
Блокнот: Позволяет создавать заметки и делится ими в игре.
Create an unlimited number of notes, each up to 2048 characters in length. Share your notes with other players via whisper, guild, officer, party, raid, instance, or chat channels. Notebook notes sent by other players will be temporarily added to your Notebook, where you will be able to read them at your leisure, save them permanently, or use them to update your existing note with the same name.
Using Notebook
Type /notebook or /note to open your Notebook, or bind a key to it in the Key Bindings window.

To add a note, click the New button in the upper right corner, enter a unique title, and start typing!

To edit a note, just type in the text area and start making changes. Click the Save button to save your changes permanently, or click the Cancel button to undo all your changes since the last time you saved. You can edit more than one note at a time. An asterisk will appear next to each note with unsaved changes. These unsaved changes will be lost if you log out or reload your UI, so don’t forget to Save!

To see details about a note, mouse over it in the title list. The tooltip will show who sent or edited the note last, when it was last received or saved, when it was last sent (if it was), and its size.
Sending Notes
Before you can send a note, first enable the “Can be sent” option for the note. By default, this option is disabled for notes you created yourself, but enabled for notes you received from other players. Also, notes with unsaved changes can’t be sent even if this option is enabled. Save your changes first!

To send the note, right-click the note's title, select the Send command in the menu, and then choose a channel to send the note to. Unavailable channels are grayed out. The Raid channel is only available to raid leaders and assistants at this time.

If you’re sending a note via whisper, you’ll be prompted to enter the player name. If you’re sending a note to a public server channel (like General or Trade) you’ll be prompted for confirmation before the note is actually sent. Notebook automatically ignores notes seen in public server channels, so these won’t show up in your Notebook.

Because Notebook allows you to send large pieces of text easily, it is important to point out that the responsibility for not spamming other players (and maybe even getting yourself banned by doing so) still rests on YOU! Notebook itself only imposes a very minimal limit on when you can send Notes (using a 5 second "cooldown" between sendings) because of legitimate reasons why you might need to send multiple Notes quickly.
Receiving Notes
When a Note is sent by another player to you (via raid, party, guild, whisper, or a custom chat channel), Notebook will automatically recognize this and add the Note to the notes shown in the All and Recent tabs. Notes shown in the Recent tab are either Notes you already have saved and have sent or received this session (these appear in yellow text and are editable), or Notes you have received and either do not have saved, or are an update to a Note you already have (these will appear in grey text and cannot be edited, although you can change their titles).

For received Notes shown in grey text, you will see one of two options on the buttons on the bottom-left of the Notebook window - Add (for new Notes) or Update (for Notes with the same title as one you already have, but different description text). Also, if you use the right-click menu to Delete a Note shown in grey text, you will not be prompted for confirmation like you will for Notes that you have saved.
Localization
Notebook is compatible with all locales. The UI is translated into English, Deutsch, Español, and Русский. If you can provide translations for another language, please send me a PM.

Fixed the cross-realm (and BattleTag) sending, and added some code to possibly support Battle.net conversations, though I have no idea when/if I will be able to test that. I'll go ahead and post a release, and someone else with more and/or more active Battle.net friends can let me know how much that part doesn't work.

Cross-realm support?

Great, useful addon! Are there any plans to add cross-realm support for this addon (i.e. whispering notes to another person on another realm in a group)? This would be real useful for the flex run I am leading, as the co-raid leader is on a different realm. I tried sending the notes to a conversation (chat channel 11), but it will not let me do that either, so I'm at a loss on what else to do.

Thanks.

I'll look into it tomorrow when the servers are back up. I haven't actually used the sending features much, and not at all in years. Should be a simple fix, though.

Thank you, Phanx.
I'm currently using Notebook, too.

In the future, I'll be cleaning up the code a bit (it definitely shows its age), but I don't plan to add, remove, or change any features. Notebook is pretty much perfect just the way it is; I've tried many other notepad-type addons over the years, and haven't liked any of them nearly as well.

So, I replace "WideEditbox" with "Editbox" in Notebook.lua.
I also fix the error while dragging the main window of Notebook.

I tried many times with my update, I didn't encounter other errors now.
If there are any problems, please tell me.
Awesome. Thanks very much, Wusula!

For those of you that prefer to use a mod that is being actively maintained, TinyPad seems to be a suitable replacement. It has a bit of a different twist on format, but it can make many different notes, just like Cirk's, with notes accessible across characters.

My comments about Equilibrium Notepad still apply, and Bossnotes, while capable, is just not really meant for the same purpose (though it does excel at what it *is* meant for).

Wusula, thanks for your efforts on the fix.

Unfortunately, after trying 4 times, I still cannot get your fix to work and continue to get a constant stream of errors in-game. While I have no doubt that you reworked the code properly, I know pretty much nothing about coding myself. I simply attempted to make the supplied changes to the best of my ability.

Is there a member of the community using this addon that would be willing to make the necessary changes and upload the revised file for everyone to use?

If not, the best alternative I've found so far is "Boss Notes". I have tried "Equilibrium Notepad", but it is not as configurable as you can only have 2 pages of notes (1 per character + a "shared" page). There also seems to be a line/character limit, as it's not possible to simply cut/paste/reformat everything that Cirk's Notebook can hold into EqNotepad.

Any other suggestions for a light in-game notepad mod would be much appreciated
