Getting started

Create a note:

/snote create "Mining" "Bring torches and an iron pickaxe"

Browse your notes and click a name to read it:

/snote list

Keep a reminder visible:

/snote pin bossbar "Mining"

Or display it while holding Tab:

/snote pin tab "Mining"

Commands

You can also use /sn or /simplenote instead of /snote.

Names can contain up to 20 characters. Content can contain up to 200 characters. Names must be unique within your collection and are matched without case sensitivity

Use double quotes around names or content containing spaces

Chat interface

The list displays eight notes per page, with numbered entries and their creation ages
Click [Next] or [Previous] to browse pages

Click a note’s name to open it. Below its content, you will find:

• [PIN] to pin it to the boss bar.
• [REMOVE] to delete it.

You can pin one note per display. The same note can appear in both locations. Pinning another note replaces the previous pin only in the selected location

Configuration

SimpleNote generates plugins/SimpleNote/config.yml:

bossbar-text-width: 250
tab-text-width: 140

These values control approximate text widths in GUI pixels using the standard Minecraft font

• Boss-bar text shortens with ... when it exceeds the limit
• Tab content wraps onto additional lines
• Full note content remains available through /snote read

Accepted values range from 60 to 400

Saved notes

Notes are stored in each player’s persistent data. No external database is required
