Is there any ability to mark a note as Read-Only.
This would be very useful in preventing erroneous/ unwanted edits to older notes…
Can this be added as a feature request?

We’ll take it on board. It isn’t possible now.
What might help are some upcoming features that allow you to make a note private. At least in the locked state, you can then be sure you won’t accidentally edit it.
Yes, making it private will essentially hide the note and open once a password or authentication is cleared)…
My concern is not privacy… but more protection.
I am more looking for a way to mark older notes as ‘Read-Only’ and perhaps in a slightly faded out background colour to denote the same.
Inadvertent clicks/ hitting the keyboard while the Agenda window is open is quite prone to unintended edits.
Not specifically an Agenda issue, inadvertent clicks/ typos happen in any editor…
Agenda is meant to hold a lot of historic information, so a means of protecting it from inadvertent edits would be nice…
Thanks. Yes, I understood the request to make a note uneditable. Will take it on board. Thanks again!

Yes I agreed. This is very important as I used agenda to keep my finance info and would be good to make notes READ ONLY.

is this feature of “read only mode” available for the new update? im thinking of upgrading if so, i cant find any answers about this, Thanks ! maybe its for Agenda 20?
My issue was that i accidentally deleted a pdf file while editing an old note and i got a little spooked that i might have done it in the past without thinking
It’s not something we have in development yet I’m afraid, though Agenda 20 will bring some features that might work kind of around the issue for you.

Perfect! Thank you!
Hello, I would like to support the idea of “read only option”.
I’m left handed and on pad/phone I browse with my left thumb through my notes. By this, I often open the “preview menu” of pictures and attachments accidentally. For me, this is annoying and I really would give this “read mode” a very warm welcome.
One more idea: Sometimes I have very long notes (contracts in foreign language with my translations and comments). I really would like to close a note deep in the middle without the need to get back to the top for hitting the yellow knob.
Thanks and have a fine time!
Thanks for the feedback!
I am pretty sure that if a note is not selected, most interactions should not do anything. That might be a way to enter a “read only” mode: just deselect all notes.
