As part of problem solving have you tried simply dragging the attachment file into the body of the note (assuming you are on a desktop client)

I completely agree. If you want to type text and then turn it into a bulleted list, I agree that you need to highlight and either use the edit bar icon or the keyboard shortcut. I was simply pointing out there is another way of doing it in case that helps, and then in the second post, correcting your misunderstanding of how the auto formatting method works. I'm not sure that there really is a standard that all software, except EN, follows. MS Word for example using ctrl+shift+L for a bulleted list.

Please tell me this is an option and not obligatory.

Given that I'm still waiting for a new Android home screen and full screen tasks on desktop I won't hold my breath.

The ability to import markdown is apparently coming.

I am amazed that EN allows you to name a tag *black or even in my testing black*. If you search for tag:black* It should find notes containing tags beginning with black. If you have created the black* tag the search does nothing. I would avoid * in tag names ($, . or _ work fine) although I doubt this is the cause of your problems.

Why don't stack names show up in searches?
Mike P replied to mskala23's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Two sensible places to look! Stacks do show up using switch to. Ctrl+Q on Windows but on Mac I seem to remember it is something completely different. Search for switch to in the keyboards shortcuts list (Help 🢂 Keyboard shortcuts) -
V10 has sooooooo many problems: EVERYONE NEEDS TO SPEAK UP
Mike P replied to enfan-01's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Which is the same number of key strokes as my suggestion of end then space. I don't normally add to a search term in other programs. The building up of searches using the advanced search syntax in EN is one of its strengths. It's difficult to incorporate all three scenarios we have discussed without somebody having to hit some extra keys. Currently you are doing the extra and I'm not - I'm sure if it was the other way around I would feel the same! -
How are you sharing the notes? There are two methods. 1. Share a notebook. Find the notebook in the notebooks pop out. Use the three dots menu and choose "share notebook". That will list the people who already have access. 2. Share individual notes. You can find all notes that have been shared by typing sharedate:* into the search. This doesn't include notes shared using method 1. You can then click the green "people icon" at the top of the note to find who you have shared the note with.

V10 has sooooooo many problems: EVERYONE NEEDS TO SPEAK UP
Mike P replied to enfan-01's topic in Evernote General Discussions
You haven't actually covered the scenario, which I personally use most, of adding to the search. In your proposal you would probably have to type {end} and then {space}. Currently, to highlight the search term so that you can type in a new search, you need to type {shift}+{Home}. So I guess EN need to decide which use needs an extra keystroke or two. As a general point deleting or overwriting the search term is an extremely unreliable way of deleting the search, as filters will often still be in place. A much better way is to go to Home first and then search. On windows that's alt+ctrl+1 followed by alt+ctrl+F -
Corrupted Bullet Points

No, it's normally more buggy. -
Confused what version.. Desktop vs Web
Mike P replied to ozstar's topic in Evernote General Discussions
The desktop and web versions are both 10.85.4 Just to re-emphasise that you only see the arrow if you hover over the sidebar. For the desktop version there is also a keyboard shortcut - F10 on windows. -
Hide email address from display
Mike P replied to Mike P's question in Evernote for Windows Requests (Versions 10.0 and above)
So a screen shot in a different thread gave me a workaround. If you collapse the sidebar you loose the email address. I have fed back to EN that I think there should at least be an option to hide the email address - don't want to upset the (presumably) tiny number of users with multiple accounts which all have the same user name! -

Mike P replied to ozstar's topic in Evernote General Discussions
If you hover over the bottom of the sidebar in your desktop app you should see an option to expamd the sidebar That is the only difference between the two. -
Hide email address from display
Mike P replied to Mike P's question in Evernote for Windows Requests (Versions 10.0 and above)
Thanks, that explains the possible use. People can change their username for different accounts but I can't stop my email address being displayed. Perhaps an option to display if desired but we all know how keen EN are on options! -
Does anybody know whether it is possible to hide the email address that appears under my user name at the top of the screen on the desktop and web versions. This is a fairly recent introduction. I take a lot of screen shots and it is a pain to have to blank out the address. Also I use the web version in public places, so don't really want my email address on display. What possible use is having the email address displayed there anyway?

Jumping to a specific TAG in the Tag List
Mike P replied to jcnassoc's topic in Evernote General Discussions
I think I understand what you want. I don't think there is a way of finding a tag within the tag structure. If you use the search in the main tag popout it will certainly find the tag but you can't then see the entire tag structure with that tag highlighted. That can be done by using the drop down menu within the blue tag lozenge. It will give you a list of sub tags (for reference) and the ability to include the sub tags in your search (using OR logic). main_tag OR sub_tag1 OR sub_tag2 etc If you wanted to you could then exclude the main tag from the search by typing (in my example screenshot) -tag:ggplot It looks a bit weird because the filter and the search are saying exactly opposite things, but what you can't see is that "include sub-tags" has been selected. -

Mike P replied to enfan-01's topic in Evernote General Discussions
That certainly shouldn't happen. Probably worth checking your EN keybaord shortcuts and to see if any of the standard bindings have been changed. -
Deleting saved searches
Mike P replied to Dr.Know's topic in Evernote for Mac Issues (Versions 10.0 and above)
This is not intuitive! You need to run the search first and then from the three dots menu you get the option to delete the search If for smne reason this doesn't work, you can use the blue "Edit saved search" to add it to shortcuts. You can then right click (Windows) the shortcut and there is an option to delete the saved search. -
I hope this is thought through properly and we don't loose the option to have these files as attachments if we want to. For the record attaching html and txt files to a note in the Legacy version resulted in the contents being imported into the body of the note, so it's only partially a new feature.

Printing Task Lists
Mike P replied to jay shatz's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 10.0 and above)
I just use the task view and filter those with a due date of today. I also use emojis in the task title to allow me to filter for particular types of task
