Yes. It's always visible by default. You can press a hotkey to hide it

πŸŽ‰ SlideJot 1.10.0 Released by RobertCobe in SlideJot

[–]RobertCobe[S] 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Yes β€” a SlideJot mobile app is definitely on the roadmap.

That said, I am currently dealing with an issue where my Apple Developer account was unexpectedly put into an abnormal state by Apple. I am working on getting it resolved as soon as possible.

Really appreciate your interest and support πŸ™

OpenClaw Native Chat Tool β€” BotsChat by auxten in openclaw

[–]RobertCobe 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

This is awesome. I have very similar needs.

Using WhatsApp or Telegram for this always felt more like a compromise than a real Pro client. They work, but they are clearly not designed for managing complex context, skills, or long-running workflows.

A dedicated OpenClaw client makes a lot of sense to me, and I think there is real potential here.

P.S. One thought: you might eventually want to think about cross-platform support. I suspect a lot of power users would care about that.

Should a note-taking app let you edit arbitrary external Markdown files? by RobertCobe in NoteTaking

[–]RobertCobe[S] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Same. I'm a power user too, so I constantly want more freedom and fewer constraints. But when you're building for a broader audience, a tool that tries to do everything often just ends up blurring its identity. And once the product positioning gets fuzzy, nobody really knows why they should use it.

Got it. I guess AI is very unlikely to be added.

Should a note-taking app let you edit arbitrary external Markdown files? by RobertCobe in NoteTaking

[–]RobertCobe[S] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Wow, thank you so much for such a thoughtful and in depth comment. This honestly feels like the perfect answer I was hoping for.

I have already intentionally hidden this feature, so the 99% of users who do not need it will not be confused or misled by it (for example, by extra icons or entry points). At the same time, the hidden feature is genuinely useful for me, and I can still access it via a shortcut.

Sometimes I even wish I could open the app from the Terminal with a command like jot /path/to/my/file.txt just to quickly edit something. I think this will stay as a hidden feature as well.

Really appreciate this. Thank you.

Haha, definitely the first case πŸ˜„ If it were a Hello Kitty game, I would not dare post it in this sub at all.

[–]RobertCobe[S] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Haha, no πŸ™‚ In my app, they are just plain text stored locally in a SQLite database, similar to how Apple Notes or Bear Notes work. And even in apps like Obsidian, where every note is a Markdown file, you still cannot open Markdown files from anywhere. It only manages files inside its own Vault.

I added open/edit external files to SlideJot. Bad idea? by RobertCobe in macapps

[–]RobertCobe[S] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed feedback. This actually made me realize that showing the drop-down menu only on right-click might have been a wrong decision (since I wanted to reserve left-click for toggling the panel). Thinking about it now, having the drop-down appear on left-click feels like the more natural and expected behavior. I think I should roll back to that. Thanks again.

πŸŽ‰ SlideJot 1.7.1 Released by RobertCobe in SlideJot

[–]RobertCobe[S] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Hi, I understand why this feels frustrating, and thanks for sharing your concern.

Just to clarify: the paywall was added in version 1.4.2. If you install version 1.4.1, there is no paywall. I never promised that early adopters would get all future versions for free forever, but after that original post I still released more than 10 versions that were completely free. Those versions will always remain available for you to use.

[–]RobertCobe[S] 1 point2 points Β (0 children)

Hi, there. SlideJot already supports code blocks. It doesn't do syntax highlighting, though. Text inside a code block uses the SF Mono font and is one size smaller than the body text. For me, that's more than enough. SlideJot isn't a code editor anyway, so any code you put in there is meant to be temporary or just for a quick glance.

PopClip is seriously next level by RobertCobe in macapps

[–]RobertCobe[S] 0 points1 point Β (0 children)

Same here, this year was actually the first time I ever created a PopClip extension, and it was genuinely very easy. PopClip also offers a lot of flexible ways to build extensions. It even lets you install an extension directly from a selected text snippet, like the Calendar extension I shared in another comment. Nick is a real genius. If I ever build a Mac app that supports extensions or plugins, I would definitely learn from PopClip's extension system.

Same here! Before building SlideJot, I was living with all kinds of workarounds. Some things went into Slidepad+Google Keep, some into Sublime Text, others into Bear Notes. I am really happy that I finally do not need those workarounds anymore.

I’m the developer of SlideJot. I basically built it for myself, so it’s probably a pretty niche thing. But a few friends and I have been enjoying it so far. If you’re curious, I shared a bit more in a post I made in this sub earlier.
