#32 Question marks appearing in notes.

[Patrick Howden]

Hi,
I can syncronize NixNote with my Evernote account fine. I've come across a bug in NixNote though, and that is when I edit a note in NixNote and upload it, then edit it on my Android phone, download it, then edit it in Nixnote again and upload it, I start getting all of these question marks appearing in the text. Nixnote appears to work fine if I only edit the notes on my Android phone, but when I start editing my notes in both NixNote and my Android phone, then these crazy question marks appear throughout the text.
Thanks for your help.

I've run into this before. If you look under "Edit/Preferences" and switch to the "Debugging" section there is an option for an experimental Android fix. I believed that has helped other people. I don't think it corrects any notes that are already messed up, but it does prevent new occurrences.

Thanks Randy but I've had the Debugging Android option ticked the whole time, and I still get this problem.
I've even tried this with a new note, with the Android fix ticked, & the problem still occurs.

Crud.

I don't think I'll be able to help much. Part of the reason I've been
spending the majority of my free time on NixNote2 is because of issues like
this. The code base in the old NixNote is pretty ugly with things like
this. I'll keep it in the back of my mind and maybe I'll think of
something, but I'm not planning on adding any new features to NN 1.x and
this would probably be a lot of work.

Sorry, but when NN2 is out it should be better than the Java NN 1.x.

Ok. Thanks Randy. I'll keep an eye out for NixNote 2. Cheers. :-)

Hi all! A quick update to this ticket: the question marks and spacing issues seem to be fixed by v2-beta3, at least for my ubuntu 14.04 install and Android 5. One note for users though, the evernote client for Android will choke up and freeze when trying to edit files with the v1.x errors after upgrading to v2-beta3 and running a sync. I manually fixed the notes in the web client (deleted the missing characters and the excess spaces), and now all three environments work great together (evernote web for desktop, NixNote v2 native on linux, and Evernote for android). Thanks so much Randy for making this awesome tool!
