(Archived) Text Color Icon

[HFcoD 1]

Evernote has been great on my Mac; using it for trade journal notes on investments & other stuff.

Helpful would be a text color icon (like the one above) that could be inserted into the toolbar rather than going to Format>Text Color. Not a big thing; just useful.

Good trade/day

Hide your head in shame

& the notes about other things.

Thanks

Text color wouldn't hurt. Personally, I don't spend much time formatting my notes, but I could see how the feature would be useful.

Hi airform1, our current EN 5.0.5 does have easy access to bold and color on the rich text formatting editor. 

 

See attached screenshot for where the color selector is located: https://www.evernote.com/shard/s11/sh/eef1c502-c0e9-481b-82f9-fe5cdad37978/7c5f9e0141bbbad8b0ea2224f2391ee1

 

You can also have quick access to bold and color through keyboard shortcuts of CMD-B for bold and SHIFT-CMD-C for color selector.

 

Hope that helps!

Like GrumpyMonkey, I don't spend a lot of time formatting my notes. I normally treat them as I would a Post-It or the back of an envelope where the important thing is to just make my notes. If I need special formatting, I prefer to use an app that's designed for that purpose (In my case, Word, Publisher). I either then add that file to Evernote for safe keeping or print it to a PDF which is then added to Evernote. I only occasionally change the color of the text in my notes & don't find the dropdown box (on Windows client) a hindrance.

I type a lot of text, so easy access to BOLD and COLOR are needed to pop things out. Wasn't the color selector there on previous versions? Why should it not be next to bold, italic, etc. tools?
