Wepclip screenshot - Then open note and annotate - image disappears. Upload image - Then open note and annotate image remains.

When screenshotted images were disappearing from my notes, I looked to see how it was happening and I think I found it.  I've replicated this on several occasions, playing close attention to each step.  Try it yourselves.

Use the Webclipper and save a screenshot into a note.  Open the note in the windows version, annotate it.  

Open a note, upload an image and annotate it.

When you open these two notes later, you'll see the image in the first one (made with the webclipper) is gone.

Yes, this issue has been noted in other threads. The workaround is to use the built-in screen capture.  It is supposed to work with Ctrl+Alt+S but doesn't.  I can, though, trigger screen capture from the taskbar icon. The resulting image can be annotated and doesn't seem to disappear as one created from the web clipper does.

Great solution - thanks.  Except for the hundreds of notes with images I webclipped months ago before I was aware of this problem.  All the bells and whistles in the world ain't worth spit if EN just randomly torches my work.

Agreed. Image handling in V10 has all sorts of problems - the worse thing is that in some cases you think it has worked and then you come back and find the image missing. Some fixes have been implemented but I am still very nervous that EN will not keep my data safe - I can't believe i'm saying that about a note taking app who's raison d'etre is to keep stuff safe!
