Hi everyone, Sticky Notes is such a useful tool I just can't do my work without it. But haven't been able to get the latest version work because of my poor skills in Linux. I managed to do a ton of stuff but everything is a first try. Could you help me if this new fix doesn't work on my system or it is not even installed properly.
I installed the latest proposed version of gnome-applets(3.22.0-2ubuntu0.2) which has the latest Sticky Notes fixes. But I'm not sure if I really installed it because it doesn't seem to work, notes still can't be closed and text selected. Here's a picture of Synaptic showing it's installed in the attachment. I followed this and set selective upgrading for proposed packages. And I installed the latest gnome-applets from terminal.

It makes it more difficult that selecting text isn't possible with mouse. [Test Case] - Write anything in a note - Try to select text in a note - Try to delete it with 'x' or with 'delete notes' menu item [Proposed Fix] The fix is a backport of three upstream commits: - https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-applets/commit/?id=85041d6567c78b4a “sticky-notes: make sure that notes are really saved” - https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-applets/commit/?id=0c4e0c4fed0c61bf “sticky-notes: fix path to resource file for delete dialog” - https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-applets/commit/?id=e189ba213c0f8db8 “sticky-notes: fix text selection” [Regression Potential] The fix definitely improves the Sticky Notes applet because without ability to save notes that applet is mostly unusable. It does not touch other applets so no regression expected there.
