Yes Windows have a snipping tool[1] Although I use it every day, I haven't bothered looking up keyboard shortcuts for it. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snipping_Tool
Win - Shift - S I think Edit: that might be specific to the OneNote clipping tool though.
It has been promoted to a normal Windows shortcut in one of the recent major updates.

#83Hey do you mind if I ask you you handled code signing for your Windows and Mac apps? Mac seems relatively straightforward, but Windows seems like an absolute cluster. I'm releasing my own free open-source desktop app built with Electron soon, and it seems like the biggest pain in the butt that no one seems to talk about. Overall though I love the idea, upvoted! Might even give it a go. Solves some big problems I have…
Nothing is code signed currently, it's annoying but code signing for Mac and Windows is not cheap.

#84Nice app. As someone who uses org-mode for note taking, I tried micropad. Here is a quick feedback: 1. Add support for syntax highligting the code blocks in markdown may be? 2. It is not obvious that full screen will hide the sidebar and how I can bring it back. 3. App has several bugs I think. Trying to create a image note with 1MB image froze the application. 4. Vertical space is a premium these days. A lot of vert…
Syntax highlighting would be really cool.
1MB images should work perfectly fine. It is an image element right?
I have heard that the icons might be a little weird. I've been unable to test it because my install of Linux doesn't use icons. I'd appreciate help with that one if anyone can help.
Thanks for the other feedback.

Hmm. I suspect that's because I don't do code signing?

Thanks for the list! Just on a couple points I may already have what you're looking for, you can type in a hashtag (like #todo) anywhere in a markdown element and then that note will show up in a search for that hashtag (that search also works cross-notepads). The side-nav can be hidden (although the rest of the chrome can't, which is something I want to get sorted). Also, on the textarea size, I think I'm using the…
Would a full UI redesign proposal be appreciated too? I'd like to give it a shot if I found some spare time.
I definitely wouldn't say no to something like that. It would probably make my life a little easier.

I know, but the UX is hobbled pretty bad IMO. There's a good chance less-savvy users are turned away altogether...
Good to know. I'm planning on not signing anything for my first release, think I'll stick with that plan. Thanks!

#88OneNote ever heard of that? Take this garbage behind a shed and shoot it.

#89People who prefer structured outlining (over non linear snippet collections) may find fluid-outliner[1] interesting. After not finding any good signup-free privacy-aware zero-installation solution, which supported both rich text and markdown, I started prototyping on the above. It is quite early stage but fairly usable. Any feedback/contributions are welcome. [1] https://github.com/fluid-notion/fluid-outliner
Some feedback -- this looks great! I'd love to have some kind of (la)tex support.

Cheapest code signing certs I've found are from K-Software, although even they have jacked their prices a bit since I last renewed.
