forhekset 7 Posted April 16, 2015 Posted April 16, 2015 Hey guys I want to create a simple list of things I want to do someday. For example -visit that yoga workshop on baker street -check out the music shop on miller street The thing is: I have flyers (or ads, or articles that I've cut out from magazines) for many of the things I want to do someday. But I don't want to bulk up my list with images/photos/scans/pictures because lists with images are too distracting. I want to keep the list simple, just text. On the other hand it would be cool to have Evernote show me the picture/flyer/photo/scan if I hover over the text (or if I click the text). Is there an easy way to do this? I guess I could upload all the photos to an external webspace and then make links out of my text entries, linking each entry to its corresponding photo/scan/flyer, like this: -visit that yoga workshop on baker street -check out the music shop on miller street But that's too much work. To cut things short: I want a text list. But I want to be able to link a photo/picture to an entry, if I want to. Is there an easier way? Or maybe a different solution?
Level 5 JMichaelTX 4,120 Posted April 16, 2015 Level 5 Posted April 16, 2015 Evernote does NOT seem to support the OnMouseOver method for links, so AFAIK you're only choices now are:Create a link to an external image or web page Create a link to another EN Note.
Evernote Expert gazumped 12,631 Posted April 16, 2015 Evernote Expert Posted April 16, 2015 Actually it's pretty easy to do part of that - create a note for each item, including a scan or a picture of the item or event, in a separate notebook. Once you have a fair number of notes, Select All in a desktop list view and create a Table of Contents note, which will give you a link to each individual note. You won't see a thumbnail picture when you hover over the link, but you can always open the link to see the full details. If you look in desktop Snippet view, you will see a thumbnail of one picture from the note. You can't choose which one though, so that's a bit hit and miss.
forhekset 7 Posted April 18, 2015 Author Posted April 18, 2015 Thanks guys, I will try both methods! @ gazumped: hm, that could be a great method, but the problem is: whenever I want to add a new entry to my table of contents (my list), I have to create a new "table of contents" note, right? Or will the "table of contents" note automatically update itself whenever I create a new note in the notebook?
forhekset 7 Posted April 18, 2015 Author Posted April 18, 2015 By the way, I don't see any option for creating a table of contents. Where is it? Here's a screenshot. Can't find this option regardless of the view. http://s18.postimg.org/n4ebli7nr/sssff.jpg
Evernote Expert gazumped 12,631 Posted April 18, 2015 Evernote Expert Posted April 18, 2015 Well TOCs are static snapshots, so the content won't refresh if you add new notes, but it's pretty quick and easy to "select all / create TOC" if you add a lot of new notes, or Copy Note Link and paste a new line into an existing TOC to update it. Good luck with the test anyway - let us know what you eventually decide!
