I am evaluating the MAV version of the product and I have run into what appears to be a bug or limitation while evaluating SafeWallet. The Note field seems to be limited to displaying 4 lines of text although I can enter more than four lines into the field. IN addition the formatting seems off as I cannot get text aligned that requires spaces on the same line with lines above and below. I think this is related to the fact that the tab key is not supported inside the field. I am hoping this limitation will be fixed in future releases.

I was able to solve the formatting issue by using opt-tab to tab text and the rows align however I still cannot view more than 4 lines in the notes field.

Hi mikertp and welcome to our forums
I'm sorry for the trouble with this. We're planning a new update for SafeWallet for Mac in upcoming weeks. (Hopefully will be released in approx ~6 to 8 weeks from now or so). I've listed this report in our development plan and we will be sure to improve the note display to support unlimited notes display.
We have a lot of UI goals and changes that we'd like to achieve with this upcoming update and we'll be sure to see how we can improve this section too with that upcoming update.Have a great weekend!

Thx for the reply I am very close to making a decision but one other option that I would like to be able to migrate my info is the Duplicate Card option. Most cards have common data and I hate having to type my name over and over into each new card. Most other apps I have evaluated have the option.

Hi mikertp
SafeWallet allows creation of cards based on templates. This way, you can easily create new cards with an initial fields setup. Furthermore, you can also create your own templates, this way, you can easily define templates with custom structure that suit your needs and have the fields and field types that you need to store different types of data.
However, at least for now, our templates only allow defining the actual field types and field names, but not the field values - this means that each new card you create based on a template is created only based on the template fields and types, but without any values, so you'll still need to type the new card fields value, even in cases like you mentioned were a certain card all include the same value in some of the fields.
One immediate option that I can think of will be to copy-paste an existing card and change only the fields you'd like to change. This way, you can create new cards based on an existing card and re-use the fields you'd like to keep.
On the slightly longer run, we'll definitely try reviewing the option of adding a feature like this. Basically having the ability to define slightly smarter templates that will also allow setting up initial field values and not only fields type and names.
Have a great weekend!

Hi tasman
Thanks for the feedback! At this stage this is a feature request that we still have in our development plan and this will definitely be improved with the upcoming Mac SafeWallet update! I really hope to have more news on this one in the next couple of weeks.
Have a great new day!

Hi David
Thanks for the feedback!
Great to hear that the new full-length note display is helpful, and I hope you find the new small UI tweaks nice too!Regarding larger note field editing, as part of our work on upcoming updates we're actually designing a completely new way for handling notes display and editing, such that will let users edit and manage notes in a large editor - and basically make notes a much more powerful too with SafeWallet cards.
I'm pretty sure you'd love this change once full implemented and released.We still have a bit more work ahead of us to get this done, but hoping to have some news available on this pretty shortly.
Have a great day!
