Change default styles

[Eldars 1]

I want headings to have colors and wish I could edit the default styles for new notes.

You can create a template with all the settings you want, and use it when you create a new note.

It will have all the settings you made individually.

An alternative is to create a note with your settings and pin them to shortcuts. Whenever you want a new note with your settings, duplicate this shortcut note, and you are good to go.

I PinkElefant,

I'm trying to create a template but can't see the "Save as Template" voice in note's more options menu (I've read this guide)

Do the feature has been removed?

Thank you,
Tommaso.

The easiest explanation is maybe that the feature to create own templates is restricted to subscribers.

In this case create a note, modify it, set the Normal Text text style to the modified format and save it.

Select it as a shortcut, and always use a duplicate to start a new note. It will inherit the  settings from the original note.

Thank you PinkElephant.

I can't even modify the text syles... I suppose the "no subscriber" reason should be the right one...
I checked the payment subscriptions plans but I did't see these features listed, so I though maybe them sohould have been moved somewhere else...

I totally agree with Eldars, and I think the template solution is really clunky. Why not just make a global setting for this?

The template solution doesn't work now if you use the inbuilt "Update style to match" function.

You can't even use an older file as a template.  As soon as I duplicate it, all the unique default heading styles get lost and the duplicated file goes back to using the core default.  It's like they actively discourage any personalization.  Which sucks.

Just tried, it's correct that the changes don't stick any more.

If intentional or by chance is not clear. If you want to know, contact support.

The annoying thing is that the change of styles used to work (sometime pre 10.60.4) - the updated style was retained if you saved it to a template or copied/duplicated the note. Now it is lost even when you print!
