Francois 11 Posted August 21, 2013 Posted August 21, 2013 Hello,In the text editor, numbered lists work that way:Subject 1 Subject a Subject b Subject 2 Subject a Subject b etc. Is there a way to make them work that way: 1. Subject 1a. Subject ab. Subject b2. Subject 2a. Subject ab. Subject b or anything similar? As I use Evernotes a lot for notes taking, this is slightly annoying... Thanks!
Evernote Expert gazumped 12,630 Posted August 21, 2013 Evernote Expert Posted August 21, 2013 Nope, sorry - Evernote's editor is very basic and due for a revamp, but we don't know if, when or by how much any individual features might change. Meantime the only option is to take notes in some other app that handles lists correctly, and cut/ paste into Evernote. Or use bullets initially and switch to numbers later..
Evernote Expert gazumped 12,630 Posted August 28, 2013 Evernote Expert Posted August 28, 2013 An Evernote "it's getting there"! You'll be banned from the herd...
howdyyyy 1 Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 In addition to the numeric lists, it would be wonderful if the bulleted lists had more options, first and foremost, by not forcing a new paragraph whenever a bulleted list starts. Second, similar to other word processing programs, other bullet appearances such as dashes.
Jim Frey 7 Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 With EN Windows 5.0.3.1559 (269559) I frequently get these "buggy lines" appear in the numbered list feature. where a number appears at tab stop 0 AND a number appears at tab stop 1.Hard to shake. Also the GUI actually "overlaps" the characters when I try to out-tab to fix it and finally clears the GUI glitch when I reopen the note.buggy lineaaaabbbccccdddddd
Level 5 Jackolicious 808 Posted October 23, 2013 Level 5 Posted October 23, 2013 Hey Jim, thanks for posting. This is a Mac thread, but either way, you should see improvements to list handling on both Mac and Win in the coming releases.
totochto 15 Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 Of course - the numbered list thing would be great. And while you're at it - simple line sorting of lists.
FindYourZebra 0 Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Has there been any progress with the numbered lists in terms of what Francois was referring to? I realize these messages are 7 months old, but I am just now starting to take more extensive notes with Evernote and would appreciate more options in terms of numbered lists.Thank you!
Evernote Expert gazumped 12,630 Posted March 18, 2014 Evernote Expert Posted March 18, 2014 What you see is (for the moment) all you get...
Level 5 Jackolicious 808 Posted March 18, 2014 Level 5 Posted March 18, 2014 We are currently hard at work on this.
Ethan Harrison 0 Posted September 2, 2014 Posted September 2, 2014 Jackolicious, any updates on this? I'm having similar problems as other users.
Level 5 Jackolicious 808 Posted September 2, 2014 Level 5 Posted September 2, 2014 Have you tried our latest betas?
nha 0 Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 hey jackolicious, i have evernote 6.0.5 for Mac. Was this problem fixed in the latest version? I'm having the same problem as these other users.
bonster713 15 Posted January 23, 2015 Posted January 23, 2015 I'm putting a plug in for this feature. As a note taking device, primarily, this seems like it should be pretty up there at the top. After all, despite what our English teachers in high school thought would happen, many of us grownups DO outline stuff. Thanks so much!
Level 5 Jackolicious 808 Posted January 23, 2015 Level 5 Posted January 23, 2015 This is a very old thread. The number list overlap issue no longer occurs. Closing this thread but feel free to open a new one. Thanks!

Hello,
In the text editor, numbered lists work that way:
etc.
Is there a way to make them work that way:
1. Subject 1
a. Subject a
b. Subject b
2. Subject 2
a. Subject a
b. Subject b
or anything similar?
As I use Evernotes a lot for notes taking, this is slightly annoying...
Thanks!
