I have been using skynote before for a long time usually copy pasting my codes for example css/html... etc) so i can have access somewhere else on another computer 

 

Now in MAX5 it is all in Infobox, I really like it, but there is a really big problem with Infobox handling codes, It should at least have a "Code" BBcode so we can paste codes in, otherwise if we copy codes from Infobox and pasting somewhere else to use, it completely destroys code

For example if you copy css codes from Infobox to use , it does not work, no matter if you even paste the code somewhere else for example notepad so it deletes the hidden background codes, it still does not work, The codes are becoming invalid property values

Once I also lost everything in my skynotes ;( 

i hope it does not happen again 

sorry I can't make a screen shot of this menu.....a workaround is : use right click to get the contextual menu then choose "save as plain text.."

I dont get it? what do you mean?

 

I use skynote to save parts of codes I often use in my website.

a note in Mx4 : you can see it's html code

the same note in Mx5 : just after synchronisation, first time I opened it in Mx5 :  html code has been processed

So I opened my notes in Mx4 again, by chance old skynotes are in plain text only and sync did not delete them.

Anyway to be sure, I have saved them as text files ; but I needed to have them in Mx5 so I have tried to "copy/paste as plain text" (rignt click menu) and it worked :

below is the note in Mx5 in plain text (my code is there, phew !).

this is only a workaround, like you I need an option to show code as code,  either a "source "button or a "code" button.

Infobox have some serious issues handling Codes :)  

 

For example lets say i have a Infobox record contains a text only 

blah bla blah blah bla blah blah bla blah blah bla blah blah bla blah ....blah

There is no problem exporting this record to a text/plain, The record saves without any problemsMaxthonSnap20160718153116.png

Lets say i have changed the record to add this line of html 

blah bla blah blah bla blah blah bla blah blah bla blah blah bla blah ....blah

<div>blah bla blah</div>

Now If you save that as a plain text the output text file is like this  

blah bla blah blah bla blah blah bla blah blah bla blah blah bla blah ....blah

&lt;div&gt;blah bla blah&lt;/div&gt;

It is converted to HTML character entities, this should not happen 

 

I know we can also save the record as a text/html but the issue still exists, this is a mess in codes  

<p>blah bla blah blah bla blah blah bla blah blah bla blah blah bla blah ....blah</p>

<p>&lt;div&gt;blah bla blah&lt;/div&gt;</p>
