I am using annotations more and more to contain detailed descriptions of word/phrases and even context. I am finding that it is not so usable for this however due to three issues:
1) In order to read most annotations I have to "Edit" the annotation - which is not really what I am wanting to do - I want to "Read" it only. I might be helpful to seperate "Read" and "Edit" options and optimise screens for each function
2) In the Edit screen the font size is too small for reading, and the text is preselected for editing - again I think having a separate screen for reading is better - and allow the option of changing font size etc
3) Annotations do not retain line breaks. I am using isilo for windows and when I enter in line breaks and then reopen the annotation the new lines are gone and are replaced by ||. It would be great to see this feature
I hope this is all doable in the next version! Isilo is becoming more and more an essential tool for daily use - these features would make a big difference to usability.
Thanks for listening!
