Naming Notes is important

[a. watts]

it seems quite counter-intuitive that we cannot change the name of the note.
When it doesnt recognize my handwriting correctly, i am forced to revert to
the on-screen keyboard. After typing the name of the note i realize that the
name-tab on the right keeps the incorrectly translated version.

it would be better if we could just right click the name-tab and have a
"rename" option. i dont understand how this product is usable if you cannot
go back and easily find the notes you have taken. a week from now i wont
remember what "8rog-ss" was supposed to be.

Hmmm...I'm a little puzzled because I've never had any problems renaming
notes. I'll try it again some today using the pen (I take about half my
notes with the pen and half with the keyboard) just to see if I can
replicate what you're saying here.

I think he means renaming pages which, as far as I can tell, can't be done.

Well, I did it a few times during my meeting at noon today and it worked
fine. Using the pen I created a new page, wrote a title in the header and
created some notes. My title was recognized and appeared on the tab at
the right. I subsequently used the pen to scratch-out the title I had and
write a new title.

To get that new title to appear on the tab I had to select a different
page, but it worked fine. After I switched to a different page, the new
title was reflected and the page worked fine.

I changed the title a couple of times that way, with no problems. The
only catch was that I had to switch away to a different page for the
change to be reflected on the tab.
