Arh i know i'm just so frustrated. it's been so long. I really use code blocks a lot. However, since the last few releases the highlighing between the windows client and the web client has thrown a bit of a wobbly. I did raise it with support a few weeks back, so they are aware and i know covid has broken everything too. If you want to test it yourself do this
1. On windows create a note add a title add a code block, type stuff in to the codeblock (doesm't matter what it is, code blocks are just text really).
2. Now highlight the text
3. sync the note
4. open and view the note in the web client.
you'll notice the highlighting is missing.
5. now type some more text below the code block
6. sync the note and view it in your windows client.... highligting is now gone.
I've got some big notebooks with lots of information in loosing the formating has been a heart ache. of cause i didn't notice for a while so lots of my notes got messed up and i could tell you when it broke or what i've changed since it broke.
Code blocks in tables. We used to have this as well (but it's been broken for ages and i sucked it up and use a work around).
1. create a 2x2 table on your windows client
2. move to a cell. click the code block button.
Nothing happens
3. create a code block below the table.
4. put some stuff in it.
5. cut the code block.
6. paste it into a cell in your table.
now you have a code block in a table.
So why do i use code blocks? They not a trutype font so every character is the same length. This is handy if your pasting stuff from a command line as it preservse the commandline spacing format.
I've tried a work around by using a single cell table and setting the font to monospace. with some limited success.
I know stacks and tags i get them i use them a lot. but the code block thing has upset my work flow. I used to find them really useful for documenting code snippets. Its the loss of functionality that really hurts.
it's slowly messing up my notes unfortunatly I need both clients, I can't install the fat client on my work machine (no rights) but I can use the web app which was fine.
I've been using the product for 7 years, i guess it's made me a bit salty. I've invested a lot of time into my notes, I'm just worried it was a waste. If anyone has any better work arounds i'm all ears. Some kind of inline plugin i've not found, anything. I'm a bit desperate.
