What's new in 1.2.1
1.2.1 adds find within the open note, on Ctrl+F, and fixes the themes around it: legible text on filled accent buttons, dark card borders and a real drop shadow on the Black theme, and context menus that cast a shadow again. Added - Find in the open note, on Ctrl+F. A small card fades in over the note with the match count, next and previous, and wrap at either end. Drag it by the grip on its left to put it wherever it suits you and it opens there next time, staying inside the note whatever the window is doing; F3 and Shift+F3 step while it is open, Enter and Shift+Enter do the same from the box itself, and Esc closes it.

The sidebar box is unchanged and still searches across every note; F3 still goes there when the find bar is closed. Fixed - Context menus cast a drop shadow again.

Black is built so that things read by their background rather than by bright edges, and a mid-gray hairline on a near-black surface was the one edge in the app fighting that. - Selected text is highlighted in the accent color you actually chose. Every theme carries a defaul...
