mac client generating checkboxes when typing []. Can I disable?

[adammokan 0]

I use Evernote to keep track of code snippets quite often and this morning got hit by checkboxes being generated every time I put in two square brackets like `foo = []`. If I simplify formatting via the menu, it then adds a space between the brackets, which is no good. Is there a way to disable this feature completely? I assume the fact I've never been hit by it before, as a daily user, suggests its new?

 

And I know its a long-running request, but having a "code block" that does not do anything with formatting would really be a life saver.

 

Thanks.

Yes, it is probably new on the Mac

 

It was just released on the Windows version.

I doubt that I will be able to remember them or have a need to use them.

 

Added keyboard shortcuts to make your workflow faster.

Here's the complete list (don't forget to hit the spacebar to start a numbered or bulleted list):

 

Start a numbered list: "1. "

Start a bulleted list: "* "

Create an unchecked checkbox: "[]" or "[ ]"

Create a checked checkbox: "[x]"

Add a horizontal rule: "***" or "---"

Create a table with 3 columns: "[][][]"

Create a table with 4 columns and 2 rows: "[][][][]x2"

 

To avoid the unchecked box, I type

a period, the 2 brackets, and a space

Then delete the period.

Maybe someone else has a simpler solution on disabling it.

There's a preference to switch off the new formatting coming in 6.3 on the mac apparently.
