BUG: Discrepancy Mac vs. Windows
On Windows, if you have your notes in compact display mode, and you have a new note created (which will fully show), you can click "Compact" and it will shrink up the just-entered note so all notes are again displayed as compact.
On the Mac, clicking compact does nothing. In fact, you can click another display mode like full, and then come back to compact, and it still doesn't display all notes in compact mode.
I think the Mac version needs to be fixed to display all notes in compact when 'compact' is clicked.

Yes. When confirming the bug discovered that clicking Split and then Compact would display all notes in compact mode.

This appears fixed in Beta 4, although I can't confirm that - it would be nice to hear from FL on this.

My inclination is that neither is really intended behavior, and just byproducts of how the view selector is implemented on each platform.
1. On Windows, the view selector is a dropdown menu which, when clicked, removes focus from the note and causes it to collapse.
2. On Mac, the view selector is a text link which, when clicked, doesn't remove focus from the note (in fact the active view is unlinked text and does nothing). Thus the note never loses focus and doesn't collapse.
I'll create a case to verify my inferences, but I don't think this is a bug. The "Compact" text clicked isn't a button saying "Compact the notes" but rather just the title of the view.
