Making it easier to Search


Recommended Posts

i have been using Evernote for some time now and and loading lots of notes, forwarding emails and office attachments etc.  Searching for these items is becoming a pain as the amount of items "found" is to great to quickly find what i am looking for. I know i can prefix a search such as "intitle" or "created" etc but this is not particular handy / user friendly. When can we get a new button on alongside the File / Edit / view buttons with a drop down allowing search by title or notebook or tabs or created date or keyword(s)?

My preference is to use tags.  It allows for more precise identification.

We sort of have that on the Mac platform.  Its a dropdown list to help in building the search parameters. It helps, but I agree that to use the search feature effectively, you need to be familar with the search grammar (link below in my address section)

Workaround.  I use a tool called PhraseExpress to create my own hot keys.  For me, Ctrl - Alt - I wraps whatever is in the search bar with intitle:"......" and hits enter so I go right to the results.  PE is also useful for just about any repetitive set of keystrokes.  FWIW.
