Dominique Antony 4 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 How to sort alphabetically a checklist? I haven't find anywhere how to do that useful and handy sort. If actually the alphabetically sort of a checklist is not available, it's a lack that , I'm sure a lot of user of Evernote would appreciate. If you make a check list , for instance for all I need for preparing a painting work, I add new data which may be are already in my list. With an alphabetic organisation, it's very easy to verify and, more, if I think to an item, to find it just by its name (alphabetic) instead having to search by reading all the list to find if I have already put in. Hope to have an answer and, better, to discover that Evernote have resolved this expectation. Thank you Link to comment

In terms of finding out whether data is already in your list, there are various options: manually sort the list as you create it, use a note search to see whether keywords exist, or use another app to create the list and to sort random entries into alpha order.

Dominique Antony 4 Posted November 18, 2022 Author Share Posted November 18, 2022 It's still a shame that Evernote does not offer this alphabetical listing which, for good reasons, is still rampant in the use of dictionaries and especially address books. Evernote should look into the subject, since it uses it for the classification of notebooks for the same good reasons. 2 Link to comment
Dominique Antony 4 Posted November 18, 2022 Author Share Posted November 18, 2022 It's always a shame to have to look elsewhere for a good application to solve a problem that the application was unable to offer. Imagine you had to create your own alphabetical list of contacts for your address book outside of the application that would catalog your contacts in bulk. Get over it! ... 2 Link to comment

Level 5 PinkElephant 8,348 Posted November 18, 2022 Level 5 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Import into a tool like Excel, sort, export. Why is it so difficult, to open a Toolbox and choose the right tool for a certain job ? Or do you really think THIS has supreme usability ? 1 1 Link to comment

In order ... maybe that's why it's taking them so long to get to my obviously brilliant and necessary suggestion ... they are going through them in alphabetical order, and I suggested Zoom interconnectivity. 1 2 Link to comment
