Yes, and it does the same thing on Windows and iPadOS. And it's just as annoying there. I have to devise awkward workarounds to make use of this new checkbox.

Well, that feature is well hidden. But thanks for enlightening us @PinkElephant!

Agree. Limiting export to 50 notes is ridiculous. There should be a way to export an entire notebook without selecting individual notes. In the past there was a way to have a local copy of your notebooks which were always synced with the cloud. This was a really nice way of having an automatic backup. Another example of Evernote breaking things with the latest version of the software.

Thanks, Mike P, for explaining about the difference between checkboxes and checklists of boxes. Thanks, also for the suggestion but it's of limited help. Here's what I tried: Insert a new checkbox on a blank line with no CB/CL either before or after. Type some text. Click on the box to check it (to x it). Press Enter (text now gets strikethrough). Press Backspace. Press Enter. Insert new checkbox (via square brackets: []). New CB is now indented. This all seems like a lot of bother to try and recreate something that worked great before. 😣

Checkboxes and Checklists both show as strikethrough: To see this, create a checkbox, check/X it, then hit Enter.

Actually, the checkbox does do strikethrough—which I do not want. But under some condition it doesn't!

I found the problem. The Insert menu only works when the individual note is detached from the larger Evernote application.

Just as I sent that last post another idea occurred to me: to try undocking the note from the main Evernote. That was the problem! The Insert menu works only when the note is detached. v 10.1.7 build 1902 public Editor: v109.0.14125 Service: v1.20.26

@AdmiralP thanks for the info. Unfortunately, that doesn't work for me. I've been trying repeatedly with new notes, existing notes, with a selection, without a selection, with the cursor positioned at the beginning, end, and middle. Nothing works for me. When I click any item on the Insert menu nothing happens. I noticed you have a more recent version of the software. But it tells me I'm up to date. You’re up to date! Evernote 10.1.7 is currently the newest version available

@PinkElephantAhh, I see you're on a mobile device. It works for me, too, on my iPad but not on my Windows PC. @charlieedstrom on Windows none of those Insert menu items work. Nothing happens when I select one.

None of the items on the Insert menu (blue plus icon) is working for me. Selecting any of these items does nothing.

@DTLow thanks for the tip! I hadn't noticed the distinction before. Unfortunately, the checkbox isn't working for me. When I select it nothing happens. In fact, none of those Insert menu items is working for me.

Checking an item in a checklist now changes the font to gray and adds strikethrough formatting to the checklist item. Previously, the formatting did not change. That was my preference. The new behavior makes the checklist feature unusable for my purposes. Would appreciate an option to be able to check an item and have the only visible change be the addition of a checkmark.

I've been using a different workaround: just copy/paste the email content into Evernote. I think that's generally a little quicker and the resulting notes are easier to search and read. But we still need the Outlook Clipper feature back!
