Stickies is an application for Apple Macintoshcomputers that puts Post-it note-like windows on the screen, for the user to write short reminders, notes and other clippings. Contents are automatically stored, and restored when the application is restarted.[1]
Stickies notes are essentially digital Post-its. The app works similarly to the Notes app, in that you make yourself notes so that you remember stuff. But Stickies notes stay on your desktop, as a visual reminder. If the note is very pressing, you can choose to keep it in front of all windows so that you have a constant reminder. If you quit the app the stickies disappear from your desktop, but are still saved. To get them back, reopen Stickies. If you want them to be visible all the time, just leave the app open.
An unrelated freeware program with the same name and functionality is available for Microsoft Windows.[citation needed] Open icloud on mac.
Similar applications (described as 'desktop notes') are available for most operating systems.[citation needed]
History[edit]
Sticky Notes Mac
In 1994, the first version of Stickies was written by Apple employee Jens Alfke and included in System 7.5. https://themeclever654.weebly.com/barnes-and-noble-app-for-ebooks-on-a-mac.html. Alfke had originally developed it in his free time as Antler Notes and intended to release it as shareware doing business as Antler Software. Apple planned to acquire it from him, but then realized that they already legally owned it under the terms of his employment.[2]
During the transition to Mac OS X in 2001, Stickies was rewritten in Cocoa, and is still included in macOS, now with features such as transparent notes, styled text, and the ability to embed pictures in notes.[citation needed] Pinball app for mac.

A feature-reduced version of Stickies has been included with Dashboard as a widget since Mac OS X Tiger. App for messages on mac. An updated version of Stickies (Core Data Stickies) was included in the Xcode developer examples in Mac OS X Tiger.[citation needed]
Features[edit]
The Stickies application currently supports the following usage scenarios:[citation needed]
- Float above all windows: Press Command-Option-F with a sticky note selected and it will float above any other windows that are visible
- Translucent: Press Command-Option-T with a sticky note selected and it will become translucent
- Embed other media: Add other media besides text, such as QuickTime movies, PDFs, images, just by dragging them into the sticky note.
- Backup data: Stickies keeps all information in a self-contained database. The database can be backed up by copying the file StickiesDatabase, which is located in a user's Library directory (typically '~/Library/StickiesDatabase')
- Search data: Press Command-F to search for words or phrases within a sticky note
- Create a note from selection: In a Cocoa-based application (such as the Safari web browser), select some text and press Command-Shift-Y or use the Services menu to create a new sticky note with the text selection.
