  1. Ach, now I've found something else less useful in v10 than it was in Legacy. Previously, you could select a number of notes by Ctrl-Click; then right-click and "Tag Notes" would give you a list which could be filtered down to the Tags in use on the selected notes (and if you filtered your view once, that filtered view would be the default next time you did it). Checking or unchecking the boxes from the filtered list, or selecting "All Tags" or similar (I've only got the new less-useful V10 with me just now so can't check) would tag all notes with your selectd Tags without having to scroll through all the many hundred Tags I've gathered over the past 14 years. Why oh why...
  2. Thanks for that! Do you - or can you - run both Legacy and v10 at the same time, referencing the same Notes database? Just curious, I wouldn't want to, and I'd have thought there might be database locking issues.
  3. hi Mike - I'm not sure how one could object to a feature being added (or put back in, in this case) - if it's something we don't want to use, we wouldn't use it! There's a regular poster to a forum for a brand of cameras I use who gets really hot under the collar about the pop-out LCD screens on recent camera models - I think the entire forum membership has now said "hey, chill out, just don't pop the screen out". A quick look down a list of Notes works for me - that list might already be filtered, or date-ordered, or retrieved by Tag across a number of Notebooks, or be the content of a single Notebook, or whatever; it doesn't really matter. Among other processes I'm filtering down to a point and looking for outliers which shouldn't be within that filter. What does matter is losing around 50% of my working space because I can't switch off something I don't want to look at at that point. It especially matters because we used to be able to do it. It especially matters because the Panels in the other part of the working space (browser or app window, whatever you want to call it) can be switched on or off at will so there wouldn't seem to be a techncal reason for the non-feature. It was Phil Libin in the Evernote Podcast more than 10 years ago who I first heard use the phrase "use case". We all have different use cases for Evernote, which I guess is why so many folk like it. It's just a shame that with v10 the EN dev team have made one of my long-standing use cases almost impossible to carry out. AHB
  4. I've just been around the various web and app versions again and it's still not possible to turn off the Note Panel. I've been using EN since 2010 and have around 14,000 notes in it. I would like to be able to scan a list of them and see instantly those Notes which are not filed (ie are still in Inbox) and those which have or don't have useful and relevant Tags. I've been doing this for twelve years until V10 tipped it all overboard. I'll often be researching a topic and web clip many articles on the same topic when I'm there. That means that, given a view that shows me more then seven (yes, only seven, for crying out loud) Notes I can select multiple Notes and choose to tag them at the same time. If I've tagged one of them at the start of my research, I can apply the same Tags to all the related Notes - if I could turn off the Note Panel to free the screen real estate to be able to see them, that is. Perhaps Evernote might tell us who thought it would be appropriate to enforce the Note Panel on us, and who thinks that being able to view seven (yes, only seven!) notes out of 14,000 is a good idea. Come on, I dare you - own up and try to justify this nonsense. In the meantime I'll keep using the Evernote Legacy desktop software - don't you dare disable it.
  5. and +1 - the inability to use all my screen real estate is probably going to force me back to Evernote Legacy. Archie
