Showing More Than Ten Items

[John Evans-40]

When I click on my Tomboy application launcher in my toolbar, it shows me a
list of the 10 most recently accessed items. I have a total of 16 notes,
but I need quick access to all but 2 of them during the course of a normal
day. Getting to to the notes that I accessed "older than 10 clicks" ago
requires me to click on Search All Notes, and then find the note in the
list in the pop-up. I can't find any way to configure Tomboy to display
more than 10 notes in the drop-down for quick access. I've also done some
searching around the documentation, and the Internet in general, and I've
come up empty.

Is there a way to have Tomboy display more then 10 items?

Thanks.

There is a 'hidden' GConf preference which can be changed with a tool
like gconf-editor. The key you are looking for
is /apps/tomboy/menu_note_count.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this what the pin icon next to each note is for?

The pin icon keeps a note in the menu even if it's not new.  It's kind
of hard to get into the situation where you've pinned more notes than
can fit in the menu...
