App Links not working
Mike P replied to Velectro's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 10.0 and above)
I'm certainly not having that problem. You could try the web version to check that it works there. If it does, it might be a local database problem so you will need to refresh the local database: Go to File > Sign Out [name] from the menu bar. Select the "Remove my Evernote data from this device" option, then click Sign out. Restart your computer (probably not really necessary). Sign back in to Evernote -
How do I select text in pdf?
Mike P replied to Thora's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 10.0 and above)
By the way it highlights and copies just fine on my PC 10.46.7-win-ddl-public (3701) Editor: v158.2.19526 Service: v1.58.7 © 2019 - 2022 Evernote Corporation. All rights reserved pdf downloaded from https://we.riseup.net/assets/533560/Zuboff%2C+Shoshana.The+Age+of+Surveillance+Capitalism.2019.pdf -
How do I select text in pdf?
Mike P replied to Thora's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 10.0 and above)
@ThoraHave you double clicked the pdf or used open as we have suggested to open the pdf in a different application. eg Adobe reader? If you have then can you confirm that you can select text within that app. If you can't then, as @gazumpedhas suggested thenmaybe your pdf contains scanned images and no actual text. -
How do I select text in pdf?
Mike P replied to Thora's topic in Evernote for Windows Issues (Versions 10.0 and above)
For me I just highlight the text, press ctrl+C to copy and then ctrl+V to paste it. If this isn't working for you, why don't you just open the pdf in the default pdf viewer on your system by double clicking it. Then if that still doesn't work you will have a whole lot of other people to shout at. -
Can you make jumpable section headings?
Mike P replied to Oddball's topic in Evernote General Discussions
I basically do the same. If you start your headings with some special sequence of characters (e.g $$ or an emoji symbol) you can then quickly cycle through the headings using a ctrl+F search for the character sequence. I do agree with @agsteele. EN works best with shorter notes linked together with a ToC. This also allows you to employ much more detailed tagging which again helps you find what you want. -
New note start in title area
Mike P replied to Johnsonmc2000's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Because EN highlights the text when it auto creates the title all you need to do is type, which is what you would have done anyway. True. You need to be at the beginning of the note which is easily achieved with ctrl+Home I would, of course, be more than happy for EN to provide an option to start in the title area. I'm just trying to demonstrate that in the mean time it is relatively easy, using only the keyboard, to get to the title and change it. -
New note start in title area
Mike P replied to Johnsonmc2000's topic in Evernote General Discussions
If you had read this thread you would see that shift+tab takes you directly into the title - no mouse or trackpad needed. If there is already taxt in the main part of the note EN will create the title based on this. It creates the title highlighted so you can immediately start typing your own title if you want to or you can simply tab to take you back into the main body of the note. -
Provided you use check boxes (not a checklist) you can have multiple checkboxes in a row. I think this would give you what you want. Note the period at the beginning of each line to prevent EN converting your checkbox into a checklist.

[Request] Create new note and note subject from selected text
Mike P replied to eddyzzzzz's question in General Feature Requests
In v10 the global (works even when you do not have the focus on EN) keyboard shortcut alt+ctrl+V seems to be very close to what you want. -
There are 58 templates listed on the website but 76 available in the gallery accessed from "open gallery" in a new note.
-
You haven't said what version or what platform you are using. In V10, web and desktop, when you create a new note there is an option to "open gallery". That's all I did.
-
I wasn't aware that you could search for words within a picture using ctrl+F in the legacy version. You can search for words within a picture in both V10 and legacy using the normal search feature (alt+ctrl+F). This facility is not available on the free plan.
-
There are two relatively new templates which may be what you are looking for. I just searched for "moon" in the search box of the template library..

Recent Notes list options
Mike P replied to ClaudiaV's question in Evernote for Mac Requests (Versions 10.0 and above)
This is a very old thread and the ability to show/hide recent notes has been in V10 for ages. -
Preferences - Number of recent notes displayed
Mike P replied to Chris_42's question in Evernote for Mac Requests (Versions 10.0 and above)
In the mean time. If you got to "Notes" and sort by "date updated" you get a list of all your notes in the order they appear in "recent notes". Unfortunately, if you don't routinely organise "Notes" in this order, there is no keyboard shortcut. The order specified for "Notes" can be different from the order specified for notebooks. -
Note List view is gone...
Mike P replied to mrstucci's topic in Evernote for Mac Issues (Versions 10.0 and above)
There are certain times when the note list is designed to disappear! I think this is a bad decsion. Some examples of when the note list disappears: Going to a shortcut which is just a note clicking a note in "recent notes" clicking on a note suggestion which comes up in search below the search bar Using ctrl+Q (Windows) to go to a particular note
