[UX] Starting a new note and tags area

Just a couple of options to suggest for consideration

Option 1

  • Have the "In: Notebook" button appear at the top of every note, not just when selecting a set of notes by tag (I think @uxamanda has suggested this in another post)

  • Use the space to the right for tags

    • The note editor bar does not bounce up and down when you move between notes that do show "In: Notebook" and those that don't, as it does at the moment.
    • There is now space for tags to the right of "In: Notebook" that will not disappear if there are no tags.
    • The single bar provides the details of how the user has classified the note (notebook / tag(s))
    • The notebook / tag list is now always immediately after the title (consistent)
    • If there are no tags this space between the title and the note itself appears a bit "wasteful", as it does at the moment.

Option 2

  • Have the "In: Notebook" button appear at the bottom of every note to the left of the tags / tags button

  • Move the tag editor dialog from, dialog top edge 20px below the top of the window, to, dialog bottom edge 20px above the bottom of the window.

    • The note editor bar does not bounce up and down when you move between notes that do show "In: Notebook" and those that don't, as it does at the moment.
    • The single bar provides the details of how the user has classified the note (notebook / tag(s))
    • The editor toolbar is now always immediately after the title (consistent)
    • When you click the button to edit tags the editor appears near the area you clicked, not at the top of the window.

Both options

  • Make the tag behave like "In: Notebook" in that if you click on it it places all notes that share that tag in the note list.
