(Archived) Tagging Notes by Typing Tags Changed in Evernote 5

[JeffreyC 66]

I use tags a lot.

Alternate Title: Feature Request - Remove Extra Step in Tagging - Put Back to V4 Steps

 

 

In V4, I use to:

 

• Pop open a note
• Click in the tags area
• Start typing my first tag.
• It would "preview" or show the first best match / suggestion as I'm typing.
• Press ENTER to accept the suggestion and move on to typing my next tag.

 

Now I...

 

• Pop open a note.
• Click in the tags area.
• Start typing my first tag.
• See the "preview" or suggestion * below * where I'm typing.
• Have to arrow down to get to that suggestion.
• Then press ENTER.

 

It's not much, but, the extra keystroke just breaks one's flow.

 

Thanks for the consideration.

I've created many faulty tags by hitting "Enter" too soon.  (Workflow: eyeroll, retype tag, then hunt down 'new' tag and delete.)

Update: I just did a "Send to Evernote" from Outlook.

 

I use to tag notes in this dialog (Screenshot attached) in the same way.

 

Bug: As I type, the "suggestion" appears, but, when I press enter, the tag does not show in the dialog, but the cursor moves right like it did.

 

When I completed the note, the tags that "matched" are there.  And, some new tags that didn't match are created.

 

That reminds me; I should have added to the above, if you press ENTER without arrowing down to the suggestion, a new tag based on what you partially typed is created - which is an undesirable thing.

We were on the same page at the same time, LOL.  But, I forgot the "eyeroll" step - which is definitely the step that drove me to post today!  

 

Good add!
