[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 599283] Re: active tomboy note hangs (grayed out) frequently

[nZain]

While the cause of me filing this bug (notes grayed out while sync) it
not fixed - it is intended by the devs and I can live with it - the
aggressive sync happening more often than specified in the prefs is
indeed fixed.

User experience could be improved further by showing a message to the
user while syncing (e.g. an grayish overlay "sync in progress" above the
note). Eventually a "soft-sync" option could be implemented, where sync
only happends in background (i.e. no note focused by the user).
Personally, I don't really need the Xmin sync, but actually only once
after I close the note.

Anyways, I mark this one as fix released for tomboy(ubuntu) as well.

Title:
  active tomboy note hangs (grayed out) frequently

Status in Tomboy:
  Fix Released
Status in “tomboy” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: tomboy

  While editing a note, it is frequently grayed out for several seconds.
  The note is not responding to basic edit attempts. Since this happens
  very frequently and takes the longer the larger the note is, I suspect
  it may be some problem with ubuntu-one sync, which locks the
  underlying note file? I'm not familiar with the sync technique of
  ubuntu one. Alternatively, it could be a bad implemention of an
  autosave method.

  When I do not touch the note - just leaving it open on the screen - it
  does not happen. When I'm actively editing the note, it happens more
  frequently than the sync interval, can't say exactly. So this speaks
  against ubuntu one sync. I'll turn of autosync now and report back
  later.
