I'm on version 10.76.2 for Mac but I suspect this could be a cross-platform issue. I've noticed this issue for many years but just dealt with the annoyance—but it's becoming a bigger nuisance as I use longer notes on a daily / hourly basis. There are 2 problems actually, and they are related.
When you try to search for something in your note using the "Find in note" tool (Command+F in Mac), it searches from the top of the note, not where the cursor is. This is really annoying when I'm looking for specific terms or trying to highlight repeated terms in a list or table or paragraph or braindumped blob I'm working in—I have to scroll all the way back down to find where I was. Editors as far back as I remember (even Windows Notepad) all start their search where the cursor is, or at least where the top of the viewport is. I just tested on TextEdit and Atom and IntelliJ IDEA just to confirm—yep, none of them start the search at the beginning of the file. So Evernote's behavior is surprising.
There's a related issue, but it could be solved by solving the above. When I want to search a term, say, _foobar_, on the very first keypress of the "f", Evernote goes and finds the first "f" in the entire note. Who is searching for a single letter in a note? At least if the search didn't begin from the top, I'd be able to keep my view where I was while I type more letters. So fixing #1 would actually make this a non-problem. I think fixing #1 is a better use of resources than adding debouncing (_e.g._ waiting 200ms for another keypress before finding) or removing the automatic find (as opposed to waiting for "Enter") behavior.
That's all. Minor annoyances aside, Evernote is a great product, hope to see it continue to improve.
