Notebook 2018  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 4.83
by: Phuein [More]
Gift me @phuein in-game, if you have extra crowns and appreciate my addons. (Ask me which DLC I didn't get yet!) Thank you!

This is a changed, updated, and fixed version of the addon Notebooks by Glen348 that is now outdated. There is only one notebook now, instead of three. I personally use Shift+F or F1 to display the notebook (KeyBindings -> User Interface -> Notebook.) /nb will also display it. And /nbs will display the settings menu.

New Japanese translation: https://www.esoui.com/downloads/info...anslation.html

Recommendations:
  • Backup your notes outside of the game! You can copy & paste them anywhere, like a .txt file or your Google Docs, or...

  • Back up your data file by copying it or with Google Drive Sync at:
    C:\Users\%USERNAME%\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live\SavedVariables\Notebook2018.lua

  • Before changing your character's name, back up its Notebook. [I haven't tested this myself, so please post in the comments if a name-change loses its Notebook or not.] (Shouldn't affect the Account-Wide Notebook.)

  • After writing meaningful changes to your Notebook, you must use /reloadui (in the chat) to immediately save them to file! Otherwise, there is a risk that a game-crash will lose all those changes.


This fork changes the following:
  • Fixed positioning of elements.

  • Fixed a bug with page options displaying incorrectly for new pages.

  • Improved default settings.

  • Using Escape now closes the notebook (as part of SCENE_MANAGER.)

  • Fixed and changed when confirmation dialogues appear. (Deleting will always request confirmation!)

  • Double clicking a word will only select that word. Please use Ctrl+A to select the whole page. (This can be changed in Settings.)

  • Fixed the Title and Page from showing and allowing writing, when there is no page selected.

  • The button in chat is now positioned better, and its position can be offset within limit.

  • The settings menu is now organized by categories.

  • Max characters per page is 1,900.
    NOTE: Unicode characters take extra space! And up to 3,000 characters can be displayed for editing purposes.

  • The Undo button has been removed. (Selecting any page will undo your changes.)

  • The info icon has been updated.

  • Fixed a visual issue with the z-index of page selection buttons.


And adds the following:
  • New Page Title now defaults to current time and date (or "New Page" if that fails.)

  • Page moving Up / Down buttons for sorting pages easily.

  • Text Formatting display mode that shows colors, images, and more. It's on by default when not editing the text.

  • An option in Settings for when Edit Mode is entered and exited (default is Clicking.)

  • An option in Settings to select a default New Page Title.

  • An Account-Wide mode that uses the same Notebook for all characters in your account. Its pages & settings are separate and do not affect the characters' pages & settings.
    NOTE: Each character has to activate it for itself.

  • An option in Settings to overwrite the Account-Wide Notebook with data from the current character's pages & settings.

  • An option in Settings to disable /read and /idle when opening and closing the Notebook.

  • An option in Settings for Line Selection with Tripleclick (Doubleclick+1).
    BUG: Doesn't work correctly with UTF/Unicode characters and some texts. Unfixable.

  • An option in Settings to change Text Selection highlight color.

  • Scrolling control (and fix) for Formatted and Edit Text modes.

  • An option in Settings to toggle Formatted Text Mode (colors, images) as an override (if you just want it off.)

  • An option in Settings to change the text color in the Notebook.

  • When editing a page, a character counter will display at the bottom-right.

  • An option in Settings to overwrite another account's Account-Wide or another character's Character-Wide Notebook (same account or another) on the same PC.
    WARNING: It is strongly recommended that you back up your notes before committing any overwrites. (Please report if this is working for you.)

  • A right-click menu to page selection.

  • A Send as Mail menu option that opens your Mail Send dialog, puts the page's title as the mail subject, and the page's content as the mail body. NOTE: Page title max-length has been set to match mail subject max-length. And the recipient field will not be changed in your mail.

  • Dividers between pages. To create a divider, just change a page's title to "---" (3 dashes) and when you save the page it will show. (The divider is also still a page, so it can have content.)

  • The Notebook will always load into the last selected page (even after logout.)

  • A Copy from Mail menu option that copies the subject and body of your currently selected mail item in your inbox, into the open page's title and text. NOTE: This does not also save the page for you. Option only available when right-clicking the current page.

  • An option in Settings to set the book's texture (style) between: Paper, Rubbing, and Skin.

  • An option in Settings to display the Notebook over other UI elements, to assist with taking notes, such as during quest dialogues. NOTE: Enabled by default.

  • A Copy Random Line page menu option that copies a random line from the page into the chatbox. NOTE: Will not pick the same line twice.

  • An option in Settings to make chat-links clickable inside the Notebook. NOTE: Enabled by default.

  • A Toggle Markup text menu option that toggles the new official Text Formatting (colors, images) mode. NOTE: My old method that allowed this is now hopefully redundant, and is disabled entirely.

  • Added a Russian translation. Thanks to user GJSmoker for improving it!

I'm sorry you're having this kind of trouble with it. Very unexpected.

Were any of those Character Notes saved before that? Or was it all new? The game saves notes on /reloadui or log out.

If you put Character Notes, do /reloadui in chat, and then apply them to Account Notes, does that work?

Not a waste at all. This lets me know of the potential confusion, and so I added a note in the addon description. It's a feature by design, after all. Don't want people hating it.

Yes, thank you! It's probably user error, or for whatever reason my saved vars didn't save after the editing that was done. I'll make some edits, double check settings on my characters & try it again. Thank you!!

Yes, it should show the changes for all other toons that are using the AccountWide Notebook too. There's a distinction to be made here:
Every character needs to enable the AccountWide Notebook for itself, if it wants "in on it." Otherwise, it defaults to using its own Character Notebook.

This means that you can select which toons use the AccountWide book and which use their own book. So, if you use the AccountWide for some, you don't have to use it for others.

Does that help? I just tested and the AccountWide Notebook seems to be working fine for me; changes apply for all toons that have it active.

I ask because I made several edits on a toon yesterday, and the changes have not been made in the notebook for any of the other toons. I did save it several times & I don't believe there was a crash preventing the saved variables from being updated.
I still need to log in to that toon and see if the changes made stuck on that particular one or not. If so, I'll use the Overwrite feature. (Very handy, thank you for that!) I just wanted to make sure that Account-Wide is supposed to work the way I think it does. Thanks!

No worries. I can keep copies of the various versions & dif them if needed, so it's not a big deal. Plus I don't want to create more work for someone who's already donating their time & effort to the community for an unpaid hobby.

BTW: The changes made to correct entering edit mode are working great! Thanks!!

Thanks! I love how everyone can enjoy something I love making.

Hi. Great addon! I used the "original" Notebook for a long time & switched to this one a couple of weeks ago. I was able to copy/paste my old pages into the new saved variables, once they'd been created, without a hitch. (Thanks for using a different savedvars name!) I did experience the peculiarity with entering edit mode. Took a couple tries opening/closing, clicking here & there & playing with the settings, but was eventually able to work. Sounds like you've fixed that problem with the latest update? I'm just about to fire it up now & see. It would be helpful (if you have time), to post a changelog. Aside from the usual benefits, as something of an addon troubleshooter it can be helpful to see where/which version changes were made in order to help track down problems or be able to find the conditions necessary to reproduce.

Thanks again for taking up this addon! It's one of my "must haves" and I recommend it to everyone.

Edit: And for those complaining about having tons of errors thrown, for the love of Dog, don't enable the old Notebook & Notebook 2018 at the same time!

I tried the color changing, both book and text, and had no errors. Try the updated version and tell me if the bug persists. And please paste all errors here!

The color changes uses LibAddonMenu2.0, but I use the latest, so there should be no issue with it.

Alright! I found out the issue, relating to my recent upgrades of the addon. It should work as expected now. Do tell me if the issue repeats or you have any other issues. Latest is version 4.46.

I added a bunch of new thingies recently, so bugs are expected. I'm sorry it was a major bug, however! That should be avoided or fixed quick.

Hrm, lots of buggy feedback. I'll install the addon fresh and see if I can replicate any of these issues. I assume PC and Keyboard, so do mention if otherwise. Thanks for taking the time to give me feedback!

Does it work ?

1st time use :
- bound with the F1 key : check
- create a new page : check
- edit to write something : X (no cursor appear under the title)
There's no visible "Edit mode" button whatsoever, it seems to be designed in such a way that it is automatic when you hover or click on the page, but it doesn't work right away. I don't know what I did to make it work, and it would be unrelated. I can modify the default title when creating a new page without a flaw, but that's about it.

After a while with no reason, it works.

Changed character...

- bound with the F1 key : check
- create a new page : check
- edit the title : check (it would be nice if the default title included the time and date)
- Trying do add some text : X
No cursor appear

It doesn't seem to work well, unfortunately I'll stay in "paper-pen mode".
