I thought gnote was the official being listed on�https://live.gnome.org/Gnote?

It would be nice if we could somehow handle tray icons like this some other way. � Virt-Manager, and Pidgin are also examples of this. � They rely on you clicking and interfacing with the icon so the movement of these icons in the message area are distracting at best.

Maybe have something in the Overview page which locks them and allows for you to interface with them in a more static manner. � Or something else. �Don't have many ideas at the moment.

I don't believe gnote is part of the official GNOME applications list.

But anyway, Tomboy [which is an 'official' GNOME application] suffers
from the same issue. �Usability is reduced in GNOME3.

But if you start Tomboy (perhaps adding it to favorites) you can assign
a "Create new note" hot-key. �This works in GNOME 3.

So I just punch Ctrl-Alt-N and a new note window pops up. �But it
appears you have to have Tomboy running for this to work.

Perhaps you can (a) switch to Tomboy or (b) apply a similar work around
to Gnote.
