The command was moved to the Note context menu a few versions ago and my keyboard shortcut via Sys Prefs stopped working. I've been trying to find a way to get it back. Thanks. Link to comment

Yes, the AppleScript still works. It does NOT depend on any shortcuts provided by Evernote or the user. I notice the script format is messed up after the update to the forum software. Here it is again: tell application "Evernote" set _sel to selection -- Gets the Note(s) Selected in Evernote if _sel ≠ {} then set aNote to first item of _sel -- Get ONLY the 1st Note open note window with aNote end if end tell tell application "System Events" to set frontmost of process "Evernote" to true Link to comment

hi there.
Just a simple request to add a keyboard shortcut for opening notes in separate windows. Oh that would make me so so happy.
Tried to make shortcut myself in Sys Prefs but doesn't seem to work too well....
