please go to my idea at https://discussion.evernote.com/topic/99625-please-make-evernote-rock-during-outline-brainstorming-by-adding-arrow-key-item-moving/

and "up vote" it... this is a small feature for the windows client and aligns with this "making outlining better" thread

I'm using Win7ProSP1 with EN 5.9.3.9118.  I have a total EN Directory size of 15GB and 10K notes.  No one notebook has >3K notes in it.  

 

Ever since I added memory to 16GB of RAM the "not responding" situation had gotten much better.

Don't forget Alt+Shift+Right and Left promotes/demotes levels in a numbered list.

 

Promote a paragraph. ALT+SHIFT+LEFT ARROW Demote a paragraph. ALT+SHIFT+RIGHT ARROW     Move selected paragraphs up. ALT+SHIFT+UP ARROW Move selected paragraphs down. ALT+SHIFT+DOWN ARROW

Yes, while there recent updates have been good for functions like sharing notes, a few simple additions would make Evernote incredibly powerful as an outliner.

The SHIFT-ALT-ARROW keyboard shortcut for moving paragraphs, including bullet points, has become standard in many programs now. One day I hope that Evernote will include it.

I agree that this keyboard-based approach to text management is critical for good touch typing note acquisition
