  1. So they recently started implementing global shortcuts which is a step in the right direction. But one of my most used shortcuts was previously the global "Search in Evernote" shortcut. While this does indeed take you to the evernote search bar from elsewhere in windows it seems counter-intuitive that your previous searched tags are still active. This also behaves differently from previous evernote versions where a global search started a NEW search query. Please revert this behavior back the original flow. Using a global search keyboard shortcut should not require you to then use the mouse to remove previous searched tags. This pretty much cancels out the usability of the intended shortcut.
  2. v10.1.7 build 1902, can't find any pattern to this, some notes work and others don't. When I do a 'find in note' search I get "no results" to the right of the search BUT the term I am searching for is highlighted via the search mechanism throughout the documents. All the options to jump to the next match are greyed out (since there are no results found). Even searching for a single common character like "a" shows NO results but add highlights throughout the note. This function in other notes appears to work.... fwiw I just upgraded to v10 also.
  3. Agreed! Why on earth would this be removed in an upgrade Evernote?! The narrowing of the actual note is most unhelpful. Everything seems to be less efficient in this version, extra clicks everywhere too.
  4. This is embarrassing, scanning the numerous list of keyboard shortcuts removed in a new version is crazy ( https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/209004807 ) . Literally the first sentence on this page was the primary reason I use evernote "Evernote can be driven almost entirely using only the keyboard." Why on earth would the even the basic "Win + Shift + F" be removed....
  5. I am sure this has been asked before but wanted to pass along my opinion also. I really struggle with the fact that both tags and notebook stacks have a depth limit of only 1. Maybe I am missing a critical part of how to best utilize the evernote label system but this seems like a silly limitation to me. I'll provide an example of how I have utilized other note systems in the past which I have personally found very useful. I like to categorize my notes into various subjects of which some categories I may refine those subjects into further sub-categories down to the grand-child or beyond if necessary. I fully understand that labels can replace these names but as far as I can tell I see no way to relate or group labels to other labels (other than 1 level deep limit) the way a normal parent - child structure can descend into. For example I have a folder called Tech of which there are sub-folders called Windows, Linux, Mac, etc... in the past I would create sub-folders in Linux called programs and even another sub-folder for each program I wanted to keep notes on. Now some of these programs may have further sub-categories that are appropriate to that specific program. Of course I can label each level but if a person has tons of notes in which each may have custom categories other than maintaining an amazing memory of which labels were used where I don't see any way to dig down to a subject level and see what groups were built originally and view just those notes. The evernote search system is great and labels are a nice plus but in some cases a simple global search across all notebooks or working on guessing what groups of labels where used in old notes ends up not being the quickest way to find a specific note.
