Remove the Line Break feature if you cannot get it to work right


Recommended Posts

It is seriously the most frustrating thing.

The line break (ie. type ---- and press enter) is the most buggy, useless formatting feature in Evernote.

I cannot begin to tell you how much stress I've experienced trying to format a note using these line breaks.  

 

Most of the time I type ---- and press enter, my cursor goes to the next line and the intended line-break disappears.  Literally.  This has been happening for many months now.  I don't know why it's so hard to just not push out changes that break formatting. 

Here is a gif of the issue:

OneNote doesn't have this issue.  What gives?

This is a two-year-old post, and Evernote for Windows has gone through a number of updates since then. I presume "bump" means that the same thing is still happening, namely, you type ---- and press enter, but a horizontal line is not inserted. The GIF, if I'm seeing it right, actually shows clicking the icon in the toolbar rather than typing --- [Enter]. But either way does work correctly for me, and I'm guessing for most other users (since no one else has reported it here).

If this has been happening consistently for 2 years, have you taken advantage of the Premium subscription and contacted support? What version of Evernote for Windows are you currently running?
