The note-it tab from LiveSidebar.com is awesome. I think it's the single most useful tab I have in my sidebar and one of only three that I think make the sidebar worth using for me (the others are tinderbox status and talkback report lookup). I've been using note-it for many months now but the new feature that lets you move the note-it text area into the content pane makes it so much better. Having three note-tabs is also a great improvement. I take meeting notes with it, drag bug numbers (you cad drag text from the content area to the sidebar tab), collect comments for my daily build comments, and much more. If you haven't tried it out you really should.

It would have even more potential if it's made in xul. Somehow when I drag text from content pane into it's box, then click on the box the content decide to disappear. Make that feature.. into a bug.
I still think it's a bit too narrow to make any good notes on. It would be much better the thing is use to 'collect' notes or scrapt instead. Then popup a notebook, or use bottombar.
I guess when they get the Save button working, that will fix the disappearing text.

i'm with you on this one, that thing is super, sure would like to have it in chatzilla. now that would really rock.
the click to mail is dynamite
Haven't posted for a long time in Mozillazine but anyway
after reading this status report i lokked at
annozilla <http://annozilla.mozdev.org/>
there if found out that the developer thanked a guy from
mozblog <http://mozblog.mozdev.org/index.html>
about the micro-editor.
after totally failing to install this mozblog i read this "blog" things of the core developer at
<http://www.exitspace.net/~mike/>
and there finally i found link to a demo page from an other guy:
<http://idontsmoke.co.uk/perceived/2002/march/14>
and now do this (Ctrl+, Ctrl-) thing.... it's amazing, no it's cool
whatever.... my short journey showed to myself that there is a lot of developement outside of mozilla.org and the value of institutions like mozdev (and this independent status report), where different project are helping each other.
You failed to install mozblog? Thats interesting, let me find out whats wrong and get back to you.
Sorry, the installation routine wasn't included in the package, so it only download the file and does nothing. It should work now, thanks for the notice.
Does anyone know what it's all about? I can't find release notes.
Hi
I've been all over that site, but I can't find any examples of SVG.
<http://svggraphs.mozdev.org/>
The sunburst pie chart is a gif, no problem of screen shots, but I was really hoping to see some SVG examples.
They state
"Svg Graphs
This project is intended to build a robust graphing toolkit in Mozilla SVG and XBL. It is also intended to provide Mozilla SVG implementation specific documentation and sample code. It is distributed under the standard Mozilla tri-license. "
Where are the examples, I've got the right browser of course.
You can get them from a CVS pull currently. Demo\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s will be up soon for browsing but the project is it\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s ealy stages. Sorry for the run-a-round.
Hi
No problem, I do a little writing of inline SVG code and have some
examples up at: http;//<http://www.skeeter-s.com/svg> .
Thus I enjoy finding examples of SVG.
Yes, I'm aware of the plugin SVG and have a couple of examples up also, however inline coding is more interesting for me.
Did you try Adobe SVG viewer?! ...is a wonder.
