So far, Sticky Notes sounds like a handy but rudimentary feature. Then click anywhere in the note to see your new color. To do this, click anywhere in the note and then click on the hamburger icon (the three horizonal dots) and pick a different color, such as green, blue, or white. About the only formatting change you can make is to alter the background color of the note, which by default is yellow. You can't directly change the font size or apply various attributes to your text, such as bold or italics. Your ability to format your notes is extremely limited. To delete a note, just click on the garbage can icon in the upper-right corner. You can cut, copy, paste, undo, and select all text in your note by right-clicking in it. Then just move your cursor to enlarge or shrink the size of the note. You can also resize a note by moving your cursor to one of the sides or corners until the cursor turns into the familiar double arrow. You can move any note around the screen by dragging and dropping it at the top most portion, which has a darker color than the rest of the note. Then click on the + sign in the upper-left corner.Īnother note appears to the right of the first one. To open another Sticky Note, click in the first note you created.
