  1. @PinkElephant "I doubt you even tried"   
    All I want to do is select text and delete it.  Why do I need an AI suggestion for that?
    I write notes for me, filled with unusual abbreviations and lexicography. AI's suggestions are culled from online sources with the intention of fixing text to make it suitable for others. Great if you need that, but I haven't shared one of my hundreds of notes with another human since 2016. 

    @PinkElephant :"Since it is strictly on user demand, anybody can decide" 
    Turning it off should be on user demand, too. We're all here because we clicked on the widget out of curiosity, or by accident, and now are trapped with it forever cluttering us and forcing extra clicks.  Productivity diminishers are bad in my part of the world, at least.

  2. Agreed.  I clicked on the AI widget accidentally today  on my laptop and now can't select anything in any of my notes without that lousy "AI Edit" popup getting in my way with an inane suggestion.  As is typical with AI,  no matter how much a buzzword it is, it has no idea what I need or want. 
    I should be able to click on the AI widget and "Cancel AI" should appear among the suggestions.  That, and/or a tickbox in Preferences/Settings to disable AI.

  3. Thanks Pink Elephant, but whenever I try to access Note History by clicking on the pulldown menu from the three dots on the upper right of my Note A (or any of the 180+ notes I use), the window "Access your Notes History-- Upgrade your Plan" pops up-- see attached file.  Click on this and it brings me to the evernote.com listing of the three plans: my plan ("Plus") and "Personal" and "Professional"   

    Wouldn't this behavior suggest that the user cannot currently access their Note History without upgrading?

    FWIW, "Note History" is not listed among the features in this side-by-side comparison of plans.

  4. I came to this thread b/c my MacPro inadvertently updated to 10 from Legacy, and now I'm dealing with the fallout, which is quite vast.  One of the worst things that update did was corrupt a rather large note, let's call in Note A. I sent a trouble ticket to EN, they said they'd "escalated" it to a senior tech--- that was over a month ago, have heard nothing. Can't wait any longer and I need to use Note A.  Booted up my older MacBookPro who is still on the comfortable Legacy version, turned off WiFi, attached my backup drive which should have the uncorrupted version of my Note A,. I searched in the directories listed above ( /Users/<username>/Library/Group Containers/Q79WDW8YH9.com.evernote.Evernote/CoreNote/accounts/www.evernote.com/) but all I see are tons of folders with encrypted names, within which the only readable content is a webclipping here or there. 

    I own EN Plus, not Premium, or whatever the upgrade version is called now that allows you to search Note History.  If I were to purchase that, would it be able to find a version of Note A from six weeks ago?  Or would it only start the "note history" feature from date of purchase of upgraded EN version?

  5. When I said "everyone" of courseI didn't mean you, Level 5 Pink Elephant. I was talking about all the users that found themselves on this thread due to frustrations caused by the update, which far outnumber you.  I understand the reasons why EN has implemented this change.  And I thank you for that. 
    As others said, I never had a problem with the formatting changing on different devices/OS.
    I was here just looking for a simple way to select any font the updated EN inexplicably changed toa bogus font like Times NR (which, btw, has been on every Mac I've ever owned--unclear why you think that's  Windows-only font). But I'm gathering there's no solution for this. 

     

  6. Okay, I detest this font availability reduction like everyone else. It's one of the many reasons I stayed on EN Legacy (v7) for the past two years.  Now EN is forcing me to use v10, so I HAVE to acquiesce.  Is there at least some way to take text version 10 has made into what appears to be Times New Roman (can't tell what this font is named thanks to this new godawful UI) and change them to a less dreadful font?  I'd change the entire note, but most of the text changed my previous Helvetica Neue into Arial, which is an acceptable replacement.  But for a reason I can't ascertain, there are many phrases/sentences that got changed to Times New Roman, which I would've never used.   I'd like to say "find all the text in this font and change it to Sans Serif."  EN could've at least given us this tool if they were going to impose this Font fascism. 

     

     

  7. I agree with OP.  If there is a link to vote for this, I will.  
    And, Pink Elephant, we aren't asking to make the formatting more complicated, we simply want that little bit of excess line spacing removed, or the option to have it removed.  That bit of line spacing is what's complicating things in the first place. 
    It's a nuisance when selecting lines and lines of text, that's my main gripe with it. 

  8. I, too, find this frustrating.  What a waste of real estate.   I don't really buy Scott Lougheed's reason above.  Why do you need to "access your notes" when you're focused on the content your current note?  And, often times, I'm copying text from another program and pasting it into EN, so it's nice to have that extra real estate to see the other program. 
    FR:  There should be a way, preferably accessible via quickkey, where you can hide that space hog of a list.
