Features of notePad 2.0

• All save has changed to auto-save. You do not have to do all operation on save.
  
• All data management had decided to entrust to iCloud. According to this change each Mac Can not be to save individual data. But now, each Mac can be to view and edit the same data.
  

Above Features are same the other apps supporting iCloud. However, notePad needed a different Feature.
notePad is a personal thing of only you. Not entitled to edit content of it to others. So, I thought follows.

• Entitled to writing for 15 minutes occurs on who first started the notePad. During time other people will become reading only.
  
  
  

  The left is read - write status.

  The right is readonly status.

  
  
• After 15 minutes. Or if was exited notePad who had rights to write. From that point, occurs entitled to write in who entered to the notePad in first. However you do not have to worry. notePad is a personal thing of only you. It means not occurs struggle for entitle.
  
  
• When someone writes to data notePad is updated every minute. If you were read only. does not automatically update the note. In update will go back to the first note . It is very inconvenient thing.
  If you want to update, please restart notePad. notePad will not take time to restart.
  
  
• [Important]
  In the case of normal startup also, if you feel like not reading enough, please restart the notePad. If you could fully read, then, there is no problem.
  This is very important thing. We are using internet to exchange data in iCloud. So update of some Mac will late update. that time may be a few minutes later if normal. If you felt to read complete. Please begin writing. You do not have to worry other Mac.
  
  
  The first added "reload" button. However it was poor usability. So I did delete the button.
  
  

[Important] Introduction

First line of the note becomes the same font style as the first line of the previous note. This specification is part of the Cocoa view.

First I tried to change the specification. And when I thought about it, I noticed that convenience.

The font style of the second line of the new note do not take over the font style of second line of the previous note.

In other words, the font style of the second line of new note take over the font style of first line of the new note.

You set the font style if you like the first line of a "previous note". the subsequent note becomes to treat it as the default font style.
