Evernote Staff Chantal Leonard 213 Posted October 18, 2016 Evernote Staff Share Posted October 18, 2016 Hi everyone, Excited to announce Beta 1 of version 6.4 - you can download it here. In addition to several bug fixes, we've updated the default visuals for the sidebar to a darker background that's more aligned with what we have on other platforms. Please let us know what you think! Thanks, Chantal and the rest of the Windows team! A screenshot of the new sidebar color: Evernote for Windows 6.4 Release Notes New: We've updated the default look of the app with a darker sidebar. You can now choose between two sidebar themes, dark and light, from Tools>Options>General. Fixed: An intermittent issue where notes are sometimes created in notebooks other than the current selection An issue where adding a link to a local file with certain characters like ä, ö, ü, ß did not work Several crash fixes Link to comment
Level 5* jefito 5,586 Posted October 18, 2016 Level 5* Share Posted October 18, 2016 Ok, installed. The new sidebar stuff seems to work fine. But that reminds me that the Style dialog's color picker should allow the user to pick any color, rather than the small set available, as some of those colors don't fare so well on the dark background.

pepr 12 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Well still when you edit a word with a URL to change the URL for another one, the word is lost and the new URL shows up... Link to comment
Level 5* CalS 5,107 Posted October 19, 2016 Level 5* Share Posted October 19, 2016 I don't use the left panel that much, so the color change doesn't do much for me, probably wouldn't use it. However, in dark and light mode, one of my saved searches ends up with short dark lines, see the pictures. I checked other saved searches from the shortcuts tool bar and the saved search magnifying glass. EDIT: It appears that any note with !1-Now as a tag gets the little bit of line like the above.

Abdul Jabbar Usman 0 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Hi! Can anyone give an advice how to change note font color into white? Out of curiosity, I accidentally chose other color. Now, I can't return it to default. Thanks, Link to comment
keisoko 56 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Right-click on the notebook, chose Style and then in a color selector click on the Default color button. Link to comment
nicobro88 7 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 I like the dark sidebar, now please add some contrast to the notes list. Look how beautiful this is : Against this boring design : A bug I found is that the style I had set up didn't changed the font color. I have my Inbox notebook with a bold style, and when the dark mode got enabled, the font color was still black. For me it's not a big deal, it was just one notebook, but somebody may have lots of styles defined with the default font color. New bug: I found that sometimes I can't Undo changes. It happened 3 o 4 times while working on tables but I can't assure that it only happens with them, Even if that happend only a couple of times, it's a big deal as several times I lost a lot of work because of an accidental delete that I couldn't undo. Fixed bugs: Thumbnail View: Scroll bar show unnecessarily. Link. When draggin the scroll bar and reaching top/bottom and continue dragging, moving away the mouse from the scroll bar, it will eventually pop the scroll to the original position. Link. The Side List Note View width is defaulted every time the View style is changed (other views width work fine). Link. Copy, paste and move of anything in a note is a pretty slow action since the last couple of updates. Link. (REDUCED) Some bugs still present (bold ones supposedly will be fixed or reviewed for future releases): The Start Menu Shortcut of the app still disappears after update (the taskbar pinned shortcut works OK). Link. Card View: open and with scroll, if you change the notes panel width so to make the scroll disappear then bar will still be visible; when you reduce again the width so scroll will be needed again the scroll bar now disappear. Link. Thumbnail View: Some notes have an unnecessary long title space. Link. Thumbnail View: Some Thumbnails are longer thant the "selected mark". Link. Thumbnails View: When reaching bottom of the list, some thumbnails won't show completed. Link. Adding two checkboxes with [ ] shortcut moves the text caret to a new line. Link. I can only left click audio attachments if I click them in the border, but the right click works in the whole body of the attachment. Link. Link to comment

Level 5* chirmer 567 Posted October 19, 2016 Level 5* Share Posted October 19, 2016 LOVE THE DARK SIDEBAR. I almost hyperventilated when I read the update notes. Bug: Bolded items are kept black. Selecting Default Color in the style menu makes them white, it's just an extra step. Link to comment
JohnLongney 83 Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Me, I felt so thrilled to bits that a least a screenshot was provided where to change back to the old scheme. All software I generally work with uses the term settings instead of tools, because tools are ordinarily something completely different, such as move, text, crop etc. tools. However on top of that, the German translation of tools is given as Funktionen (functions) in Evernote. There is no need to reinvent the wheel as far as choice of personal colour scheme is concerned. One thing however is commonly accepted, namely sharp contrast in large areas within a scheme is to be avoided because it is fearfully taxing to the eyes. If you want to want include such GUI features, please go the whole way or leave it alone. Sorry, does not make me feel thrilled to bits. Link to comment

After a little more experimentation: if my note has more than one tag, any that are associated with a style causes it's own little style bar to display in the note list.It's a little harder to see these bars the list views, but they show up nicely in snippet view, which I use almost exclusively. I can see a lot of people liking this: you all should toot your horn about your cool features a little louder! Link to comment

Case in point... I don't find it distracting at all: it's always visible in other places in the Evernote UI (like the note list, tags view) and in other programs (e.g. Visual Studio, Chrome, etc., etc.); none of these use an appear-only-when-hovered approach either. And it's the same color (RGB(215,215,2150 in both the light and dark scheme. It's entirely consistent in that respect. Making it darker (i.e., black) does not look all that great; try it in your favorite image editor. But hey, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as they say, and I'm a software developer, and not a graphical designer, so what do I know? Link to comment

Level 5* EdH 1,670 Posted October 20, 2016 Level 5* Share Posted October 20, 2016 Why is this here and not in the beta forum? As far as the dark sidebar, glad you did it because a lot of people want it, but it switching to it really needs to also alternate colors you've chosen for notebooks. WHen it came up, a lot of my notebook names were nearly invisible because I had them set to dark colors and when the sidebar went dark, they became unreadable. There should be a default "negative color" for some of the darker - and lighter - colors as you switch the sidebar background color. Link to comment

So I made my "Shared folders" an orange color which goes up OK against the dark theme. But the orange looks pretty bad against the folder dropdown. See this. So it seems a bit of work needs to be done when using theme colors to make sure everything looks ok against white and dark themes, and menus. Maybe the menus should be dark if the theme is dark?

Level 5* EdH 1,670 Posted October 20, 2016 Level 5* Share Posted October 20, 2016 Other misc issues: The font dialog box on a High DPI screen in Tools|Options|Note is unreadable. The font size box is ok, but not the font name box. I love the "search when note is updated" option - specifically when it is unchecked, but there are side effects not resolved. In a normal view, changing the notebook of a note doesn't remove the note from the view as it should. This isn't a search so this option shouldn't affect it, but it does. When a note window is open and it is deleted, no matter how (in the note window, in Evernote's main window, or on another client that syncs the change), the note window should both close and immediately become uneditable. As it is, there is only a subtle indication in the note window it has been deleted and you can edit it all day long but it won't save changes. And a deleted note should vanish from the note list. See bullet above. The "Search when note is updated" is affecting this as well. In Options, what does "Save note every xx seconds" mean? Isn't it always "saved" and just not sync'd, or do you mean that if the note is saved, then I type for 29 seconds and the app crashes, none of my typing is saved? en20161020bug1 Link to comment

The separate window doesn't close, but it becomes read-only, just like any other note in the trash.I can't edit it at all; the editing toolbar disappears, and is replaced by buttons that let you Erase or Restore the note.

Erase Note closes the separate window. Tried editing the note in the main UI. Deleted it: it disappears from the main UI immediately. Seem to recall this cropping up in previous versions. If you work in a separate window and delete the note in the main app window, then add to the text in the desktop window and close the note, you'll find the version of the note in the Trash notebook only includes the input up to the point you deleted from the main window. My separate window doesn't go to read only, or show any sign that it's 'parent' note has been deleted. Seems to me that's a pretty remote error to encounter, but it would be good if the child note showed some sign the parent had been deleted to prevent further unsyncable entries. The (maybe) simpler version... Create this note in Evernote: "I'm a test note" Open in separate window Delete parent note in main app Go back to separate window and add "and this is extra text" Sync Evernote. Close Window Check for test note in Trash notebook. Link to comment

GiacomoLaw 134 Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I'm guessing this will be fixed by the time the ga release comes out. Link to comment

Wouldn't guarantee it - seems like we're suffering from design, like this guy - https://backchannel.com/how-the-web-became-unreadable-a781ddc711b6#.towf7g4f3 Link to comment

Waze is the worst at this, but I find it funny. Their polls and ads that pop up are often in a light blue box with white text, which is impossible to read, so, I never respond to them. Hoping EN just didn't think through all of the ramifications with the dark gray theme and needs to add both lighter color fonts and then be able to handle how those notebooks how up on a white menu, and ideally, switch to the "negative" color if you change themes.

Anyways, if you right click on the shortcuts area, is the setting "Synchronize shortcuts" checked? Yes, they are on both pc, don`t know if the problem comes from ios app (and dont know if there is a option in ios for that...) Link to comment
IncrediMetaBeta 22 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Why was this rev released now? No, I'm not asking why it was not released instead on Halloween. What I'm asking is, what amount of changes (bug fixes, interface "improvements", or feature additions) leads to the release of a new rev? In this instance, it seems as though not much has changed. (I do not know whether there's a page listing previous revs with release notes.) Link to comment

(I do not know whether there's a page listing previous revs with release notes.) It's a beta, and it includes the addition of a dark theme. Like all betas it wasn't released for bug fixes, but to find bugs with new additions. In this case users seem to have identified "problems" when previously having added certain styles to tags/notebooks. Link to comment
IncrediMetaBeta 22 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Thanks, gutavgi. I wasn't being clear enough. What I should have asked is, about how frequently are new revs released? e.g. per year. Link to comment

Probably depends on a preponderance of new features/bug fixes being available. Link to comment
