Greg Shultz, whom I very much admire – I say this to avoid any impression I am criticising him – suggests we can make life easier by utilising this ‘useful tool’.
I for one, hate the Windows version. Even how to launch it has to be learnt and remembered. No simple one click here!
For years now I have used the free download version from: http://www.zhornsoftware.co.uk/stickies/
which does everything the Windows applet does and much more. I actually made a donation to their website as a sign of my gratitude for this extremely ueful tool.
Their “Stickies” places a small icon in the Notification Box(systray)from which a single click launches a sticky ready for use. The sticky can be left on the desktop as a continuous reminder, or set to appear at any time in the future: hours, days, weeks, months and even years!
Colour, style, fomatting etc are all available and especially the ability to instantly (single right click) view all your stickies, manage them and edit them. The “Options” list seems endless, even down to setting the co-ordinates for where the sticky appears on the desktop.
Take a look. I assure you I have no connection whatever to www.zhornsoftware.co.uk, but, if like me, you do download and use this remarkable little tool, I think you too may feel inclined to make a small donation.
