  1. I don't need a new request. This is the forum to report bugs or possible issues with the current version. Nothing pisses me off more than a smart &R$# that has to post a link to a different forum, instead of just scrolling on past. I need them to fix their programming, not request a new feature.
  2. Yes, Please. Perhaps I want an image that isn't even in the note to be the thumbnail. I'd love to be able to pick it.
  3. Why do you have an issue with a bug report. Are you having to fix it? Geesh. Bugs don’t get fixed unless they are reported. I signed up to be a beta tester for this reason!
  4. Not me, I can't stand dark mode. It is horrible for my eyes and gives me a headache.
  5. RFLOL We will let you pick your own other color.
  6. In order to have divider lines besides the one choice we have, I have created image files that I use as dividers. But when I replaced all the images in a note, the thumbnail for that image is still the old image. I checked on my iphone and the thumbnail there has updated, so it's just a bug on the Windows version.
  7. Why do we have to choose? Let the user pick the colors and I can have pink on purple if that works for me.
  8. Why would I pay more for a Professional Subscription to solve a problem I don't have. You were the one with the issue of how I use tags, not me. My issue was being able to move them to their Stack, which was solved yesterday by another user.
  9. Dave, You are correct. That's what I get for posting off the top of my head and not looking in EN. It is 1000 and I have 859. Not sure where my brain got 200 from. So yes, I am still almost at the time. Most ancestor stacks have 5-6 notebooks, so I basically can add 23-28 new surnames before I hit the max.
  10. So, let's say I want to know every census source I have for 1850 Davidson County, TN. I search for 1850 and Davidson County and Tennessee. I get 198 documents. Or I go to my 1850 Census M432 Roll 0875 (Davidson County, TN) tag and I get 8 results. The 8 results I needed on the first try over 5 different family groups.
  11. Searching has never worked effectively for me. Because the bulk of my notes have images with 1800s cursive, EN tries to OCR and sends tons of negative hits. Sometimes the handwriting is so bad it is barely readable. By tagging both the source note and microfilm note and ancestral note, I can in seconds get the information I need and only the information I need.
  12. I am not. I saw that a few months ago and posted it to another forum and two days later it was back to 200 and I don't want to run out and not be able to create ones I definitly need like a new surname folder at some point. I sure hope you are right though!
  13. Really stack/nest. Symantics. I do have a system for nesting tags. I mainly use notebooks for sorting documents, but since I am limited 200 notebooks, I have to get creative. I am at 190 now, in case you are wondering. I use Evernote only for genealogy and have 30+ years of research, both family and locations in Evernote. Years ago, everyone was told to use tags because they could be nested and you had more. But frankly, it doesn't work all that well for me on my phone. I find it a bit clunky to be honest. But I still keep both systems going because OCD. Just weekend before last, I visited the state archives and copied deed index books for one ancestal line. Once I had entered the information both found and not found, I had covered 146 microfilms. And found 28 need deeds. So 174 notes (146 for microfilms 28 for the new deeds), and yes, 146 new tags. (Microfilm notes and deed notes get the same Microfilm tag, creating a cross index of documents found on a specific roll of microfilm over time.) Here's a real tag nest (and if we can ever nest notebooks more than one level deep, I will adopt something similar). For each county I research, the state archives has about 1000 microfilm rolls, so eventually, if I live 15 lives I could easily have 6000 tags just for microfilms alone. Add in maps, County Histories, a few more states, and you can see where my system gets big quickly! It could be overkill, but it works for me and keeps all the research organized. And this was way more information than you wanted >Family Files Father >Family Files Mother >State Research >>Research in Tennesssee >>>Davidson County >>>>Davidson County Books >>>>Davidson County Microfilm >>>>> Davidson County 001 Deed Book A-C >>>>>Davidson County 002 Deed Book D-F >>>Lincoln County >>>>Lincoln County Microfilm >>>>>Lincoln County 001...
  14. That works great if the tag is right next to the tag you want to stack it in, but I have probably 1000 tags so I have to drag it through pages to get to the correct stack. Legacy did this so well, and if it were still available, I'd literally go over there, do what I need and then come back to 10 like I used to do. Not being able to bulk move tags is a big issue for a product that is supposed to help me do everything more efficiently. But thanks for your response. At least I know I was doing it right.
  15. I can’t see how to drag and drop . How do you get to the main tags window in Windows 10
  16. In Legacy, we could easily drop and drag tags into stacks. The only way I can see in the latest WIndows version is to right click on the tag name, and select move. Find the stack in the list and select it. I have hundreds of tags. There has got to be a better way to organize tags into stacks other than one by one! The least EN could do is remember where I put the last tag and open up to there the next time, or let me select several tags at once to move. This is literally 10 steps back from where EN was 2 years ago with Legacy.
  17. Which is why I haven't bothered. I ahve 22,000 notes and have been in EN all day working. I cant wait several days to rebuild my database. And I found a work around for now, by dragging the images to the notebook. So it's not pressing to me to have them fix it, but it is very much a bug.
  18. It doesn't work for me either. Here is what support told me to do. Note: I have not done this. Check that your content is present on Evernote web. Go to File Explorer Search for %AppData% folder in the folder look for Evernote and delet the entire folder. Reinstall Evernote.
  19. Yes, but I can recreate the problem the OP mentioned with import folders importing mulitple copies of the same note over and over. He is not the only one having this issue.
  20. I found I can just drag the images from my hard drive to the notebook and it would create one copy of the document. So I have moved from update folders altogether. But I wholeheartedly agree with you!
  21. Yet, Ironically the forum is exactly the same and no one seems to complain about the colors here.
  22. I did follow the link and signed up. Haven't been accepted yet. We'll see. I will definitely request that it be an option, not mandatory for all users. I think people like to be able to choose or not choose colors based on their own preferences. My office is blue. I tend to pick blue tones because of the aesthetic. But it's not for everyone and some colors can be quite cartoony and no one needs that!
  23. Yeah that's exactly what is happening. WHen you are importing large numbers of notes, it is starting the process over before it finishes the second time, and isn't verifying that the notes are already created.
  24. Well I will tell you why I liked it when I had it. The bolder fonts on the notes list was much easier to read. I find it difficult to read white text on a dark background. I liked the lighter colors. Granted the ideal would be allow the user to define the UI. I only use the WIndows 10 app, so can't say on other platforms.
