    Why? If you really do have 5 tags you will see them all in the drop down below the search field. It obviously isn't a solution if you have more than 6 tags associated with the notes and want to see all of them. As I hope is clear from my post,  I am keen to see the old behaviour returned. But until then, or maybe forever, we are stuck with the functionaility that EN have provided us with. If it doesn't work we need to very clearly say why, both in this forum (which they may read) and in direct feedback (which they will read).

     

    I'm not sure, Mike. The five tag example was associted with that particular search, otherwise my guess is that I have about 100 tags.

    What I do know is that what Evernote offers me in their Suggested Filter feature is NEVER what I'm trying to find.

    All I really need is a list of the tags included in that particular search so I could filter/narrow down the search...

    It used to work great. 

    But I've been begging for 2 year now... 🙁

    So there still isn't a way to 1) Go to a Notebook, 2) Select a Tag to refine the results, 3) Then see a list of only the Tags that apply to those results?

    Evernote previously had this functionality, then it disappeared when it launched the big redesign a few years ago. 

    Nope.

    You are right, and that's what frustrates me the most - it used to work...

    Thank you for your reply.

    Where I think Evernote falls short (and what worked great couple years ago) is that when I want to Add Filters and I click on Tags, it shows me all the tags I have ever created instead only the tags used in those 300 notes. Before it would show me only the tags used in those 300 notes and I was able to narrow down the search further.

    Just out of the pictured tags below, 6 of the tags that Evernote offers me lead to "No Notes Found" message...  So why not to show only the 5 tags that actually are associated with those particular 300 notes? 🤔

    Is there any way that you could fix this?

    I guess I don't understand this or I'm missing something, but it seems to me that it's a basic function (and not having it as a major flaw). For me the only point of storing notes is to be able to find them later on.

    I have about 7,000 notes in my Evernote. I click on a Notebook and it narrows it down to lets say 300. That's perfect, but 300 notes is still a lot, I need to narrow it further. It seems like that a tag would be the next logical step, however, when I click on the tags, Evernote goes back to all 7,000 notes instead of just letting me choose from these 300.

    And I'm not even talking about the frustration you get when you select a tag and Everonote says "no notes found". Well, if you offered me only the tags that were included in those particular 300 notes, I wouldn't select a tag with no notes...

    I love Evernote and I use it pretty much daily. I don't know what I'm missing, but for me this seems basic and it's a huge source of disappointment. And you know what the worst thing is? Evernote already knew how to do this couple years ago...

    I contacted Evernote, but since I'm like "the only one" who has an issue with this, I can't move the needle. If this drives you crazy as much as me, please issue a support ticket. Thank you 🙏.

    Presentation Mode is Gone in the New Update, Need it Back

    in Evernote for Mac Requests (Versions 10.0 and above)

    Posted

    Evernote removed presentation mode from mobile devices while ago. ☹️ It was an amazing feature and the reason I had Premium at that time. Since they removed it from the desktop now, it doesn't seem they will bring it back. ☹️ 

    What drives me crazy is that I love Evernote and see so much potential, but they just don't seem to care... ☹️

     

    The solution I have been using is close to a world class pain, but I thought I would mention it anyway for the case someone finds it helpful.

    1. You need to figure out how to get the notes to Trello (depending on your situation, Zapier may be very useful)

    2. Trello will let you export the notes to Google Slides (it creates the presentation with a click of the button).

    3. Present from Google Slides.

     

    If Evernote doesn't want to support their own "presentation" mode, it would be really cool if they let us integrate with Google Slides directly...

    It's just sad...☹️
