Gangun 29 Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 New windows version Evernote for Windows 5.1.0.2217 Release NotesImprovements:Individual note downsync. For example, if you clip a new webclip, you can download just the new webclip without doing a full syncBranded premium dialogs[CUT] ========== Individual note downsync:I can't find any button/menu about it Branded premium dialogs: what's it about?
Level 5* gazumped 12,217 Posted December 20, 2013 Level 5* Posted December 20, 2013 I imagine it's the Marketing Guy explaining how the new app is going to be quicker and sleeker than ever before. I don't think you'll have a button for either of these improvements. I just downloaded the new version too - when I get chance to play I'll let you know...
spg SCOTT 736 Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 I am not quite sure on the first one. Like Gaz, I think it may be related to how syncing works, but I don't know. I think the second is these message boxes. They are new to me, though I haven't looked too recently. http://www.evernote.com/shard/s26/sh/2c4abfa6-f04a-4d77-a5da-4abd02ce9dca/cbbf2602677f9a24e1dc7e1b7e5e4173
dlu 628 Posted December 20, 2013 Posted December 20, 2013 The first one is for example, if you click "Open in Evernote" from the Chrome webclipper and have it set to open in the Windows client. The second is that when we suggest you upgrade to premium, that dialog looks pretty and matches our new "Evernote Premium" branding
Level 5 jbenson2 2,149 Posted December 20, 2013 Level 5 Posted December 20, 2013 5.1 - Not a GA release? It is my understanding that Evernote uses the following release schedule.Internal BuildPre-releasePublic BetaRC (release candidate)Public ReleaseGA (general availability)I have considered the GA (general availability) to be the Gold Standard for users who want maximum data safety. Why is this release just a Public Release and not the top-of-the-line GA release? More testing needed?
Level 5* jefito 5,598 Posted December 21, 2013 Level 5* Posted December 21, 2013 A public release is a public release: a release to the public. GA, as far as I know, precedes that in the run up to public release (see, e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle). There is no "Gold Standard", with Evernote, nor in the world at large.

There is no "Gold Standard", with Evernote, nor in the world at large. *Sigh* After getting burned with some past Evernote betas, I still consider the public release to be the "Gold Standard". And yes, I do know about the risks involved in accepting betas. That is why I now let other users unearth the problems first. I have the current version 5.1.0.2217 scheduled for installation 2 months from now, on Feb. 20, 2014. But as you indicated in a previous post listing many of the 5.0 upgrades, there are still a lot of bugs even with the public releases that have gone through the internal QC checks and multiple beta reviews.
JSB-FR 14 Posted December 23, 2013 Posted December 23, 2013 I was excited by an upgrade, but still: - note title disappears when scrolling a note, - shortcuts bar still missing, >>> at last took time to reinstall 4.6.7. (8409) and I'm happy again
