Xiaoquan Li 2 Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 I installed latest 5.0 evernote and found "Attributes" which was below "Tags" in 4.0 evenote disappers. Is it on purpose or do I miss something? Thanks a lot. Link to comment

Xiaoquan Li 2 Posted September 16, 2013 Author Share Posted September 16, 2013 It is a very useful feature, hope it can come back. Is there a way to download a 4.6 evernote on offical site? Link to comment

Level 5* jefito 5,586 Posted September 18, 2013 Level 5* Share Posted September 18, 2013 Will attrbutes come back soon ? There is any equivalent function in v5 ?Only Evernote knows, and they don't usually tell us beforehand. The only way right now is to create searches by hand, using the search grammar: http://dev.evernote.com/doc/articles/search_grammar.php Link to comment

BrianJ 7 Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 I miss not having the "Attributes" search options in the Sidebar in Evernote 5 as well. One thing I found it especially useful for was to view Notes I created via emailing them to my Evernote email address. I'd like to see the Attributes search functionality come back. P.S. To the Evernote team: I started using Evernote five months ago and am totally digging it. I recently upgraded to Premium and am incorporating Evernote into many aspects of my workflow. Thanks for the great product. I'm looking forward to seeing Evernote continue to evolve. Link to comment

Level 5* jefito 5,586 Posted September 25, 2013 Level 5* Share Posted September 25, 2013 The attributes are available in v5 as filter options when executing a searchYes, attributes are still part of the search grammar, but the topic is instead referring to the Attribute selection UI that used to exist in the left panel of the version 4 Windows clients. It was a handy UI, since some of the attributes search terms are a little less memorable than the normal ones (e.g. tag:, notebook:, etc.). Link to comment
Vira 0 Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 This was a very useful feature, and the filter options in the new 5.0 don't cut it when you need to find all of your PDFs, notes with images, or audio files---regardless of title or any text. There is no current way to do this in the new version, except for the solution offered by jefito above on Sept 18 (http://dev.evernote.com/doc/articles/search_grammar.php) using hard-to-remember search terms. Please give the option to include the old Filter or similar utility by Attributes below Tags. It worked great, only took up one line (but could be expanded) and was very, very helpful.

Level 5* jefito 5,586 Posted October 10, 2013 Level 5* Share Posted October 10, 2013 The Advanced Search facility in the Android search might be a good direction take this, if Attributes in the left panel aren't coming back. Link to comment
hungrytales 0 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Is there a way to download a 4.6 evernote on offical site? I don't know about the official site but you can find all the previous versions on FileHippo Link to comment
cpchang 12 Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Please bring attributes back. I already have too many saved search under Shortcuts. Link to comment
MMurgadoJr 0 Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Has this question been answered yet? We received a response from an employee with a basic "Thanks" but nothing further was shared. Are there any plans or is this feature gone? Is there an alternative? Link to comment
Level 5 cwb 225 Posted January 13, 2014 Level 5 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Though hard to remember, you can just look the ones you use up, once, and save it as a saved search. Then it's always available with a click in the search field. I would guess that at least for now the sidebar will continue to be somewhat neutered while the search field gains functionality. For example the Natural Language search in the Mac betas, in an attempt to make "attributes" less hard to remember.I still think for me, Natural Language search is likely to just save me a fetch/read of the search cheat sheet, but still just result in a saved search.

RustyC 7 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Thanks for the tip on old versions on FileHippo. Reinstalled 4.6 and attributes - and colors - are back! Link to comment
