Stickynote editor behaviour

[lewis]

I have been trying out the Stickynote plugin.

In the documentation (Plugins>stickynotes>About) its says "Adds simple "sticky notes" feature (popout editors) for Qt gui."

This suggests it should behave as an editor. 

When I edit a node using the popout window and close the popout window, the node body text updates as expected. But when I close the leo tab there is no request to save the file.

Also when I directly close the visually updated leo file tab, there is no recognition that the file is edited and no confirmation request to save the file.

It seems like a bug to me. Or am I misunderstanding the purpose of stickynotes?

Thanks

Lewis

No, I think it's a bug - file a report to make sure it's not forgotten,
I'll try and get to it soon.
