blazinghands24 0 Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Hi There, I've been using Evernote for quite some time and i feel like having a read/unread flag is essential. I could start using tags to monitor if it has been read or not, but that's a too messy workaround. It would a great addition to have these flags, or better yet read unread status such as New, In-Progress, Completed, which you can customize. Thanks.

Level 5* CalS 5,311 Posted January 16, 2017 Level 5* Posted January 16, 2017 10-4 on the tags. I think the OP may be asking for some automagic drop down check box kind of thingee in the Info area, perhaps.

I think the OP may be asking for some automagic drop down check box kind of thingee in the Info area, perhaps. Or a new attribute/field. Either way, to integrate that into search filtering, that's a change to the search grammar, and that's something that Evernote doesn't like to do (per Peter K; I'd have to dig to find the link.)

Yes but where does it stop - a drop down for read/unread; a drop down for project status; a drop down for project priority Actually I do feel that drop downs are more efficient than faced with the entire tag list On my Mac, I've scripted my own drop downs It's important that I'm building on tags so I can use them in searches as well

But the purpose of the forums is to solicit feedback. This one isn't my cup of tea either, but that doesn't make it any less valid in the OP's eyes, or anyone else that up votes it.
