StickyNote 6.00
Frequently Asked Questions
This file contains some questions which are asked frequently. Please
peruse this file- you may find a simple answer to what seems to be a perplexing
question.
1) Why can't I close a single note by itself? It seems that all I can do is
close all of them at once (with Close stickies).
You can close one at a time, through the note's context menu. Right-
click the note and a menu will appear. Select "Close" from this menu.
2) Why can't I change the characteristics of a note after I've created it?
You can, again through the note's context menu. Right-click the note
and a menu will appear. From this menu you can change the font, font color
and note color. You can hide the sticky, and toggle Always on Top behavior.
3) The installation procedure fails when copying files. What is wrong?
You are probably running StickyNote when you run Setup, and trying
to overwrite the running version. Windows doesn't allow you to write to files
that are active. You need to close any running copies of StickyNote before
you run Setup. This is specified in the first window of the Setup procedure.
4) Why do the notes appear differently from the custom colors I select?
StickyNote must display your notes in a solid color. This is
a constraint of Windows and the way the program is arranged. Thus, the
color of your notes will be the closest solid color to the custom color
you select. This should only affect you if you are using 256 colors or
less; try using more.
5) The program freezes intermittently or grabs the modem
StickyNote uses a simple socket mechanism to communicate with
the Internet and whatever LAN your computer is connected to. On some
computers, even without the Internet or a network, the StickyNote
messaging system may cause problems. To fix this, check the
"Force network interface off" button in the "Network" pane of the
Options dialog. This will turn off all networking procedures and
alleviate the consequent problems. Do not select this feature if you
are not experiencing problems.
6) StickyNote is running and the network is on, but people can't send
me notes.
If StickyNote is running when you first log on to your network,
it may take up to a minute for StickyNote to autodetect your network
and set up its server software. It will not take more than a minute,
however; a minute after you've logged onto the Internet people can
start sending you notes. To check to see if StickyNote has initialized
its network sensors, check the Information dialog box accessible from
the main menu.
