Emphyrio 2 Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 Hello, Is there any chance to get back the ability to assign a color to a notebooks? I use that feature intensively and it is the main reason why I'm still using the Evernote legacy version. Thanks Emphyrio Link to comment

Emphyrio 2 Posted June 8, 2023 Author Share Posted June 8, 2023 Interesting. Didn't think about that. But it's not as convenient as assigning a color. A color is still more visual than an icon, at least for what I'm using it for. Link to comment

Have you tried creating a table and assigning a background color there? @gazumped, that's not the issue. @Emphyrio, like me, has used a feature in Evernote v. 6 (for Windows, anyway) to color-code the names of the notebooks in the notebook list. This can be helpful in grouping particular kinds of activities, for instance. I always liked it, but it always had limitations--it only existed on the device on which you created it: it didn't show up in the Web or mobile clients, or even in the desktop program on a different Windows PC. It no longer exists in v. 10, unfortunately (just as the tab feature of the Mac desktop program didn't make it into v. 10 either). The emojis workaround is about the only way to accomplish it. There are other samples here ( @Mike P seems to be a big fan) and here. 1 Link to comment

If you use the advanced search syntax alot it is easier to add the emoji to the end of the name e.g dummy🔴 rather than 🔴dummy . That way you can get away with tag:dummy* rather than having to find the specific emoji you used. As * only works at the end of a string. Easier than having to type: tag:🔴dummy 1 Link to comment
