lnewnam 1 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I am starting to try to use Evernote heavily for meeting preparation. I'd like to include all of the documents I am preparing for the presentation in Evernote. However, when I right-click on the attachment in Evernote and set it to "View as Attachment", sometimes it will revert to being displayed inline when I open Evernote the next time. It doesn't seem to be for all attachments, and I can't figure out what I do to make this happen. Is there any setting to force all attachments to always display as attachments instead of inline? Without it working as expected Evernote becomes less usable for me. I am on Evernote for Mac, 5.6.2; on Yosemite. 1 Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,050 Posted October 27, 2014 Level 5* Share Posted October 27, 2014 This could qualify as a bug - View As Attachment is supposed to be a 'sticky' setting - that note should continue showing attachments only until you change the setting. When you open the note again do you find the setting has reverted to show the file contents, and you have to re-select that option, or is it still selected even though the contents are displayed? I'd suggest you raise a support ticket for this, though you won't hear much for a while if you're a free user. Link to comment

absolut 1 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I too am having this problem. I can't explain any further because the message board keeps on saying my post contains suspected spam. Link to comment

bendhoward 1 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 This is STILL HAPPENING 5 years later. Evernote, is anyone there? Link to comment
Mike Vila 10 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 I have a solution, switch to Notion, it looks ten times better, completely customizable, tons of cool features, the ONLY thing it does not do is scan PDF's. If you need to scan PDF content, you're stuck with Evernote, but Notion is working on this feature. Link to comment

Mike Vila 10 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Yes DTLow that is exactly what I meant, Notion, does not have this feature yet. Link to comment
