Simple Search field fix


Recommended Posts

I use EN for everything and like/depend on it a lot.

However, when using search I have 2 issues:

1. When EN paunches on my pc it comes up with an old search in the search box

2. whenever I click the "x" to clear the field, I have to place the cursor in the field to do my next search.  The cursor should just BE THERE after clearing it out. This is a small thing but incredibly annoying and slows don my use of EN. 

PLEASE PUT THE CURSOR IN THE SEARCH FIELD AFTER CLEARING IT OUT.

Thanks for listening,

Richard

You don't say what system you are using but on the Windows desktop version I can normally solve this by clearing the search and then completely exiting EN. ie make sure the elephant icon is no longer in the system tray. I sometimes even check there are no EN processes running in task manager.

Completely agree. On windows shift + tab places the cursor in the find field which might help a bit.

For more than a week, I've been having the same issue. The same search, using a tag, keeps showing up when I launch Evernote.

So far nothing is working:

  • I uninstalled and reinstalled Evernote. That at least solved the issue that it would take numerous tries to actually get out of that search. At lease now, I can remove the tag, click in the search bar and start a new search. 
  • I tried Mike P's suggestion - closed EN, stopped all processes in task manager, and restarted my computer. And the darn search showed up again! I'm going to reach out to support.

Same -- it's so annoying to start typing and then realize the field hasn't cleared.
