soopafly 1 Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Hello,I often find myself in meetings jotting down notes in EN like a mad man. It would be nice to see a button next to the bulleted/numbered list with the same functionality, but when pressed, will add a to-do checkbox before each line.That is all! Link to comment
Level 5 Wern 244 Posted July 13, 2011 Level 5 Share Posted July 13, 2011 You can add a to-do box simply by pressing:Ctrl-Shift-C Link to comment

soopafly 1 Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 Thanks, but that's not exactly what I had in mind. The shortcut Shift-Cmd-T adds a single checkbox item. What I'm getting at is that I would like to be able to select multiple lines, for example:Pick up milkRecord baseball gamePay billsAnd click one button that will add a checkbox to each of those lines, similar to the bulleted list functionality, like so:[ ] Pick up milk[ ] Record baseball game[ ] Pay bills Link to comment
Level 5 jbenson2 2,146 Posted July 15, 2011 Level 5 Share Posted July 15, 2011 You can select multiple items just not all at once. Evernote does not offer that as a feature. You could use a software program like Autokey to generate the keystroke, but Wern's suggestion to use Ctrl-Shift-C (in Windows) to generate the checkbox is probably easier.Evernote example: Link to comment
Owyn 457 Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 Just tested a kluge way to create a list of checkboxes.- Click a list icon to start a list- Press Ctrl-Shift-C to insert a checkbox- Press Enter- Press up arrow- Press shift down arrow to select checkbox and new line- Press Ctrl-C to copy selection- Press down arrow to clear selection- Press Ctrl-V repeatedly to paste as many checkbox lines as you wantHey. I did say it is was a kluge, but it works. Link to comment
