lucianofuentes 1 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I'd love to be able to add color-coding to notes. I imagine something similar to the way Macs allow you to color-code files in Finder. This would serve as another attribute that would allow me to categorise notes in a different way. When I select a tag and see all the notes it represents, I'd love some notes to have an ability to stand out among the others. At the moment I work around this by playing with the subject/creation date field so such notes always appear at the top or bottom in list view. Another workaround I tried but dropped was tagging these "stand-out" notes with numbers (1,2,3 etc) as a proxy for importance. It just didn't feel right.Would be interested to hear other's thoughts.CheersLuciano Link to comment
svantuss 0 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Second the request for more color-coding in the interface. On the web version, all the notebook names in the list are green, all the tags are gray, etc. A Gmail-style color labeling system would be ideal here. It would also be cool if the color assigned to a tag or notebook would show up as a background behind the thumbnails in the list. I place notes in half a dozen different notebooks during the day, all day long, and I use the All Notebooks view a lot. It would be nice to have *some* sort of cue, and color-coding seems a natural fit, as to which notebook a particular note is in. Color-coded tags on top of that would be a nice bonus.Evernote is a great product, I'm a Premium subscriber, you guys are doing nice work, keep it up!Thanks!-- Scott Link to comment
BurgersNFries 2,407 Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 I think this would be a nice touch, too. IRL, I use color coding a lot. I'm trying to go as paperless as possible, but sometimes you need to hang on to those hard copies. I use things like colored folders or even dabs of bright pink/red nail polish for many things. (IE, on those electrical plugs that can only go in a certain way, I put a dab of nail polish on the side that goes up - I do this with computer cables, too.) Link to comment
arjecahn 0 Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I would like to second this request. I'd love to see all notes that I tagged as "TODO" colored red in my notes overview. Using Mac version. Link to comment
Kryptid 0 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Adding my second to the two other seconds - In the browser version (all I use), I'd love for the tags themselves to have editable colours. As they are all blue, they all appear equal. A colour table added to the tag edit menu would be perfect.I also think this would keep things looking cleaner than colour coding the whole item. Of course this only applies to the list view, which I personally prefer.Best,Adam Link to comment
