Is there a short cut for the 'click to add tag...' dialog

[Grant837 136]

The quickest tagging dialog in Evernote that I found, is the one on a new note at the top that says 'click to add tag...'. I really appreciate its type ahead feature.

Is there a keyboard shortcut for that specific dialog box?

I find having to click to use it unhandy, especially if you need to add more tags than can be shown in the top bar... then you have to click twice for each new tag entry.

After you open the note, or just select it in the Note Panel press:

F3 to add an existing tag or create a new tag

or

Ctrl + Alt + T to either add existing tags or create a new tag

or

Ctrl + Shift + T to create a new tag

F3! That was it! I knew it had to be there somewhere! Thanks!

Thanks for the link Jefito, it now stored in my Evernotes for much more use in the future.

I think there is something wrong in Evernote. If you want to add a tag it is extremely unlogical, you have to use one of the above mentioned solutions, but why does the tag icon just not work.

 

In the top bar of a note is the name of your notebook, the Tag icon, reminder, share, info and delete. All icons are clickable, but Tag not. So adding simply a tag to a note is getting very frustrating...

 

Any idea as I don't like the options above.

Next to the tag icon (or any tags that are already present) you should see the text "Click to add tag...". Click that text.

Hi Jeff,

 

That's the problem, there is NO text next to the icon......

 

But I just have found out, if the window for Evernote is not width enough, the text is gone and you can't click on the tag. So I had to make the application bigger in screen.

 

Thanks,

 

Bart

Yeah, I think that that's a problem. Making the icon clickable would be a nice touch, since it's always visible.
