KNotes style

Thu Jan 22, 2009 3:01 am
I only have the Plain style in KNotes, is there a separate package that offers a more stylish look?

You can try the Notes widget. Right click on desktop -> Add Widget -> Notes.
In Notes Settings, it has a couple of themes.

I think, he is talking about the knotes application rather than the notes plasmoid.
In fact I have only a plain style, too.
You can find it starting knotes, right click on the tray icon -> Configure KNotes -> Style

Yes I'm using KNotes, maybe I should try the widget too.

I used to be on fedora and there I could choose a more stylish look for KNotes, I don't know why I don't have one on ubuntu, I thought maybe a special package was missing, something like kde-extra-styles or something.


btw I'm a she :)

I know ;)
I myself prefer the widget over knotes for the styles it offers.

In fact, the notes widget is much more stylish than knotes, but it saves the data in the file /home/leo/.kde/share/config/plasma-appletsrc while knotes saves in a proper specific file.
This makes possible to put this file in a "dropbox" or "ubuntu one" folder and turn knotes in a powerfull on-line sticky notes program.

This is the reason i prefer knotes.
But it is looking like **** in kubuntu (kde 4.3.1)...

Is there any way to change the style of it as the first post asked?
