Word count shortcut for selections

[ishitagambhir 11]

Hi, I have an assigned Mac shortcut that counts the number of words and characters in selections. It doesn't work on Evernote 10.0.10. Will it work in future versions? Or can this be made an Evernote-specific shortcut in future versions?

Thank you!

Shortcuts probably are based on Apple Script, and script does not work in ver 10 (yet). It is not on the list of permanently disabled functions, but I have my doubts whether it will ever return.

On my Mac I use the app PopClip instead. It installs in the menu bar and has an option to show a word and character count of any selected text, not only in EN.

Can you tell us more about your shortcut
I use the WordService utility accessed via right click and Services
Alas - no Services in v10

I use a Services shortcut too, created through Automator (https://www.macrumors.com/how-to/system-wide-word-count-service-macos/).
