a: Like another user already mentioned: it would be good to have a "linked notes" section, perhaps at the bottom of a note. I realise this is a completely new feature.

b: Improve the current functionality (control-K). From within my notes, I currently add links a lot. Currently I have to search for the related note, then right-click that note -> "copy note link". Go back to my previous note, then paste the note (control-V). Selecting the note, and doing control-c, control-v doesn't even work (it only copies the note title, not the link). It would already be HUGE improvement if this process could be improved.

For my job I use Confluence (wiki-tool by Atlassian), where there is a simple short-cut (Control-K) to insert a hyperlink. Currently in evernote, you have a VERY basic dialog associated with that short-cut to insert a hyperlink there (you can't even specify the link text). It would be good to have more options there. It could be a 'tabbed' dialog:

1. web link (current functionality, but with a 'link text' text-box added)
2. Recent notes (The 'Note History' is already stored, could simply be the last 10 notes opened)
3. Search note -> The user has a search window, and after a search, he can pick the note he wants to insert
   • I realise this would be the most difficult option to implement, so I would already be happy with option 1 & 2

c: It would be nice if the link text (green text) would be updated if the note title is changed as well. I realise this is not always the desired behaviour, so it would have to become a setting which the user can enable/disable per link (and also the standard behaviour in the settings). Right now, if you right-click -> edit, you can only edit the link address. It would be nice to have another text box there with the "link text", and maybe a checkbox: "auto-change link text to note title".This is lower priority, but would be nice to have.
 

 

As a confluence user I strongly agree with A and B. 

I often work with a Project Master Note from where I link to other notes. What I'd like to see is a "Create and Link note from here."

I.E.:

1. Select text. 
2. Right click. 
3. Hyperlink.
4. Create and link new note here.
