Full-text content is now synced to the server and other clients. Up to
~500K of content is transferred with each sync, so multiple syncs may be
necessary. Downloaded content is written to temporary files and
processed on idle (currently 5 seconds), so synced content may not be
immediately available.
Performance will improve with API syncing and async DB in 4.1.
This also includes some other full-text tweaks, such as storing
text converted from HTML in cache files, which may speed up phrase
searching.
- New tag colors support, with the ability to assign colors to up to 6
tags per library. Tags with colors assigned will show up at the top of
the tag selector and can be added to (and removed from) selected items
by pressing the 1-6 keys on the keyboard. The tags will show up as
color swatches before an item's title in the items list.
- Synced settings, with Notifier triggers when they change and
accessible via the API (currently restricted on the server to
'tagColors', but available for other things upon request)
- Silent DB upgrades for backwards-compatible changes. We'll do
something fancier with async DB queries in 4.0, but this will work for
changes that can be made without breaking compatibility with older
clients, like the creation of new tables. The 'userdata' value is
capped at 76, while further increments go to 'userdata2'.
TODO:
- Try to avoid jitter when redrawing swatches
- Optimize tag color images for retina displays
- Redo attachment dots in flat style?
- Clear all colors from an item with 0 (as in Thunderbird), but I don't
think we can do this without undo
