  1. If you do have a more complicated list with headings in between there is an easier way of doing it if you are prepared to have it in a table. If you have a two column table and merge the columns in rows where you want to add titles etc you can easily select the checklist cells and then switch the checklist off and on again. I know we shouldn't need to do this but workarounds and hacks have been part of EN for ever!
  2. Most functions should work offline once all your notes have been downloaded. With no sync button you are at the mercy of the syncronisation gods to decide when this will happen. It's in the insert menu and you can also use the <open square bracker><close square bracket> trick as long as it's not at the beginning of a line. Use a space first if you want it at the beginning of a line.
  3. It was raised in the preview or beta and unusually there was a fairly definitive statement that it wasn't coming back. I personally don't like using a template for something like a packing list. I like to make changes as I go and remembering to save it as a new template is a pain and an easy thing to forget to do. The easiest workaround I have found is to first select the entire checklist. Then remove the checklist boxes by clicking the checklist menu item. Then reinsert them by clicking the checklist menu item again. It works well provided you have a simple checklist i.e. not multiple checklists with lots of headings and text between. You can still do it but you have to select each checklist individually.
  4. Or you can still type <open square bracket><close square bracket> provided you are not at the beginning of a line. You can add a space before if you are at the beginning of a line
  5. It seems to be yes. There is alot of discussion about this elsewhere in the forum. EN assumes that any line that begins with a checkbox should really be a checklist. The workarounds are: To not hit enter at the end of the line Add a character (e.g. space) before the checkbox at the beginning of the line. <space><open sq bracket><close sq bracket> is handy. Get used to checklists It would be good if EN made the crossing out or not of checklist text an option. The ability to drag around checklists items (or any list items) is really useful but I understand how some people don't like the crossing out.
  6. It's still in the note information window which can be opened quickly with ctrl-shift-I if that helps.
  7. This may be related to the timelag betrween changing tags and being able to search for them but it doesn't seem quite the same. I have had the red invalid tag lozenge once but I don't remember what I did to get it. Doesit resolve itself in a few minutes?
  8. How long are you leaving it between adding the tag and searching or filtering for it? As all search is now done on the server and not locally it takes a few minutes for changes in notes to be searchable. If you go back now are the notes found? This is a major change in the way EN works and makes it unusable if you have a use case which demands immediately being able to find changes (e.g both adding or removing tags) immediately.
  9. To search within a notebook you can start in that notebook and just click "add filter" which appears underneath the search box
  10. This is not my experience. If I select a number of pdfs and then drag them onto the note list it will create a new note for each pdf. If I'm in a notebook then it will create them in that notebook, otherwise in my default notebook. If I drag them into an existing note it attaches them all to that note. What is your workflow? I completely agree that all actions on multiple notes are painfully slow and this isn't helped by the fact that you have to use the menus not just drag and drop.
  11. I agree with the general thrust of what you are saying. You can speed up the process with the keyboard shortcut ctrl-shift-I Not sure how you are doing this now. My workflow of dragging the note into a notebook in the sidebar still works. There was a bug on this in an earlier version of 10.3.7 but they sorted it quickly and it works in 10.3.7 build 2018. You can of course always stick with the legacy version until v10 improves (hopefully)
  12. That has been reintroduced and is certainly in 10.3.7 I agree it should be a choice. Sometimes seeing the hierarchy is useful.
  13. This is similar to one of my use cases. The problem is that you can no longer copy and paste images out of EN into whatever application you need. You need to download them first. Also, if you add an image to a note by copying and pasting from the web it adds a link not the actual image. If the image gets changed or deleted on the website you got it from, it will be changed or deleted from your note. I'd stick with the legacy version for the time being.
  14. I found closing EN from the system tray before rebooting the computer worked.
  15. To preserve my sanity, I'm paying for 6.25 and continuing to beta test a product that EN are pretending is not a beta.
  16. I've also had similar problems. When you say exit EN and restart EN are you closing it in the task tray as well? I found that seemed to solve it for me.
  17. The point is I added the uncorrupted file to V10 and it works fine. So there is nothing inherently wrong with the file or V10. It works fine for me in V10. I do notice that when I download your file chrome gives it a different name to the one which apperars in the forum with no spaces. Having said that, to date, I haven't had a problem with file names containing spaces. If you add the uncorrupted file to a new note do you still get a problem - in other words can you narrow it down to a problem with files added to the previous version and being a problem in the v10.
  18. When I download this pdf file and add it to a note I can read it inline and open it it Adobe Reader with no problem. Very strange.
  19. How did you try to do it? The easiest way is from the main tags window obtained by clicking the tags icon in the sidebar.
  20. It's open square bracket then close square bracket just like the checklist. You just type as many as you want columns and add x4 if you want four rows. It actually woks in 6.25 as well but I never used it because it was so much easier to add a table using the menu.
  21. It's actually not available for any type of search whether it is a new search, a saved search or a shortcut to a saved search. It is available for shortcuts to other things - say tags or notebooks.
  22. All of those screen shots were obtained by using the search bar at the top of the sidebar (alt-ctrl-F) and typing in the word "local". As you can see from the screen shots I haven't filtered at all. Filtering is just reducing what is in the list in front of you so I'm glad that doesn't spontaneously change the view for you. I have no idea why we seem to be getting different behaviours.
