@gazumpedthe function was released in 10.39.6. Selecting text in a note and then pasting (ctrl+V) a url automatically creates a link using the selected text as the "text" and the url as the "link". This is still working for me in Windows 10.44.8 Perhaps @GYBcould give some more details of OS, version etc 10.44.8-win-ddl-public (3632) Editor: v156.1.19058 Service: v1.57.3 © 2019 - 2022 Evernote Corporation.

If you make this note a shortcut you can duplicate or copy it directly from the side bar by right clicking it. That is probably faster than the template route.

Good point. It depends on what the OP actually meant. If he had a heading (large, medium or small) and wanted to change it to "normal text" then your method doesn't work but if it's just random formatted text then obviously it does. Personally I would expect typing #### in front of a heading would convert it to normal text so that it is consistent with converting to headings.

I agree. If you apply a header style to some text and then want it back as normal text it is not easy to do without using the drop down. As a work around you can select the text copy to the clipboard. Don't unselect the text paste and match style (ctrl+shift+V on windows)

Are you sure? There are windows shortcuts for both simplifying and removing formatting. (Help -> keyboard shortcuts) Just to clarify. Is the note where you are ctrl clicking the internal link already a floating window? That's the only way I can reproduce the behaviour.

When you delete a notebook you get a default warning message. I would like this warning to give the name of the notebook it is deleting. In some screens where you can delete notebooks (e.g. the main notebook screen) there is no indication of which notebook you have right click or used the three dots on when you get to this stage. Call me paranoid but deleting a notebook is a big deal - hence the warning which you don't get on deleting a note. The more useful the message the less likely a mistake will be made.

This post, from an EN employee in a different thread, seems to be relevant to your problem:

The webclipper does a pretty good job most of the time but the I guess the huge variety of websites means it will get it wrong sometimes. However, I am disappointed that something as ubiquitous as Twitter causes problems. Some tricks I use when the webclipper doesn't give me what I want are: Select the text and images first. Then open webclipper. A new option "selection" is then presnt, so choose that. Select and copy the text and images and either paste into a new note or use the global alt+ctrl+V (Windows) to create a new note from the clipboard without leaving the browser. If all esle fails print to pdf and attach the pdf to a note

There are two ways on Windows. 1. Create a windows shortcut to the file and then attach that to the note (e.g. by dragging and dropping into the note) 2. Add a link (ctrl+K) to the note in the format file:///C:\Users\Mike\... You can also link to folders, rather than individual files, using the same method.

You are right. I can select the top level tag and scroll through hundreds of notes to check if there are any that only have that one tag applied. Found one!

Good solution to a diferent problem. I want to find notes which only have the top level tag and none of the child tags so that I can then add child tags

In my case I want to find all the notes for which I have accidentally only added one top level tag. It's part of my audit process rather than for finding information.

But there are times when there is no alternative. In V10 I cannot find notes which contain only one specified tag and none of the sub tags without scrolling through the entire list. Generally I agree that search/filter works well.

The other thing to try is "paste and match style", alt+ctrl+V on windows

Must be a difference between mac and windows then. Double clicking an enex file on my computer definitely puts it into the default notebook. No new notebooks are created.

As has been noted elsewhere there is more than one way of importing. If you double click the enex file on your computer it will import it into the default notebook and not create a new notebook. However, this doesn't alter the fact that moving a note to a different notebook changes the update date. You could, of course, change the default notebook before double clicking on the modified enex file, but this is now looking more like a walk to the end of the road via the summit of Everest than a sensible workaround. I think you will need to wait for EN to reintroduce the feature (if they ever do - remember that they didn't do it when they reintroduced the ability to change the creation date) or find an alternative workflow.

Can you not export an entire notebook irrespective of the number of notes? I've not tried it because I have a few small notebooks and one huge one. I did get as far as being ready to press the export button and it seemed OK:

Click "Need a little help?" at the bottom left and choose "Release notes"

Sadly this is a problem the other way too. Until very recently checklists in V10 were interpreted as checkboxes in my legacy Android version. Now they come across as bullet points. Not sure I really want to update my phone, which works perfectly OK for everything else, just to get V10. I suppose the alternative is to convert the checklists I frequently use on my phone to checkboxes.

I don't believe that the issue is the note title:

Rather than a simple paste you should try "paste and match style". Ctrl+shift+V on windows.

There is always a delay between you creating a note and it being searchable, This is because indexing etc of the note is done on the server. Normally this is really fast and therefore not noticeable. If the server is having a bad day or there are connectivity issues it can take longer.

I sucessfully added my local dropbox folder as an import folder so I'm not sure why EN is singling out google drive for special treatment.

You are absolutely right. But that is of course true for any workaround that involves creating a new note (e.g merging or simply copying and pasting). The workarounds are no where near perfect. What EN needs to do is to give us more control over which image becomes the thumbnail. This was an issue pre V10 and sadly EN have not chosen to address it yet in V10 and if anything have made it worse.

Here is another, relatively straightforward, workaround to change the thumbnail. I like to forward Kindle book receipt emails into EN. Unfortunately EN always chooses some marketing image, rather than the image of the book, to be the thumbnail. The workaround is to delete the other images and then simply duplicate the note. Although the content of the note is unchanged, EN regenerates the thumbnail. This has the advantage of not only being relatively quick but it also keeps the note meta data (e.g. creation date) unchanged.
