(Archived) Drag image file into EN to create a new note?

[mrgoerend 89]

One of the most useful features was when I could drag an image file on top of Evernote's window to create a new note. That doesn't seem to work in fullscreen on Lion. I can drag the image onto Evernote but it doesn't do anything.

Can we get this back, please? This is a major hindrance to my workflow. I scan in 60+ student artifacts then drag them in to create new notes then get down to the business of organizing/tagging them.

Thanks.

EDIT: update: so it works with the notebooks sidebar open, but I was hoping it would work to just drag it onto the "notes window." Good to know the functionality isn't all the way gone.

Agreed. As much as I like the concept of full-screen apps (especially with swiping between them) they just don't quite work right yet. I'll be patient, though.

Looks like dragging an image (or other file) onto the dock icon works really well. Thanks!

(I had been dragging the image and command-tabbing into Evernote. It still works to put it into a specific notebook, though.)

Does dragging the image to an already open note (or, alternatively, to the Evernote icon in the app dock) help with your workflow?

There seems to be a whole bunch of mysterious behaviour behind what goes on when an app runs in full screen - not just Evernote. Apple Mail behaves very strangely sometimes, so weird that I've given up on it.

How are you getting an image to drag if you're in fullscreen mode? Are these from other notes you have in Evernote?

If you are running full screen, the only way I can see that you can do it is if you are viewing a different desktop/space (or whatever they are called now) and you drag images to the Evernote icon in the dock. This will create a new note.
