Control Which Image Shown in a Note's Thumbnail/Snippet View

[marcelo 93]

I do like the new layout with larger thumbnails, except for one thing: Evernote seems to choose as thumbnail the largest image within a note. But it is rather annoying, for it seldom coincides with the image which would enable me to recognize a note at once. Can I somehow force Evernote to use a specific image as thumbail?

It was mentioned on Xitter a few weeks/months ago that this is being looked at and I'm pretty sure it will come, just not a high priority.

Just found it...

😎 Cant wait!

As one of the early adopters of Evernote, and a long time Premium account holder, I have been waiting for the ability to change the thumbnail of our Notes, so glad they appear to be finally implementing this.  As many of you, this was my only complaint regarding Evernote.  I thought about complaining/writing a ticket so many times, but never did. Glad to see I wasn't alone and they are finally listening since the problem only exhabarates with the more and more notes I create.  We are visual beings and those images are an important way to find things quickly.

 

It sounds like we still are not sure how fast this will be implemented...

I’d love this to be implemented too.

i just created a note of something like 500mb, full of graphics and photos. When I exited the note I found that the pic chosen as thumbnail was a silly sticker I had chosen by mistake. It was deleted from the note but the pic wasn’t changed in the notes list. At the end the only way to force EN to change the pic was to create a duplicate of the note, how silly is that?

Please let us choose the note thumbnail from any picture we want.

Nice story - beside note size is capped at 200MB ….

A feature request doesn’t say anything - there is no automatic process.

There have been hints that EN wants to pick up the request. No status, it will be there when you see it in the release notes.

And the logic now is ....

Most voted is not equal to easy to implement is not equal to most useful.

If you want to promote a feature, sending your wish to feedback@evernote.com has more chances of getting seen, than fruitless discussions in the forum.

I came here hoping to find an answer to this. I see I'm not the only one.  

This thread has been going for 13 yrs?!?

You did your math ...

We used to share some workarounds here. Unfortunately they stopped working a while ago.

So your only hope is
