There are several UX issues with how the notes are implemented
Why is this feature important to you -
In a large scenario it's often useful to see notes when fairly zoomed out. It's a nuisance to have to zoom in to see if the note is even the one I need.
The positioning takes the cake. Now I get to drag, too, just to read notes.
Notes should make my dev life easier - not add to my cognitive burden
How would you like the feature to work -
I want note cards to open exactly where I positioned them
I also want to not have to erase boiler plate text when creating a note
I also want to be able to READ the note without having to zoom in
So:
- don't auto position notes, ever unless someone clicks Auto-align. Then move the note along with the module/filter it's attached to. Don't move the note as if it were a module
- clicking a note should open what is the "editor" and show me the full note body (with scroll bar if needed) and and edit/delete button
- use the attribute "placeholder" instead of hard-coded content
Current Behaviour -
- notes are parked a mile away
- notes are illegible unless I zoom in
- i have to delete a boilerplate text when creating a new note
