  1. The initial post states this: The right swipe -- as is working in EN on iOS right now -- is contributing to the very problem mentioned in the very initial post of this thread. Sometimes when trying to scroll to the left content of the table from the *right* side of the note it will close the note. This is not standard iOS behavior -- to issue a "go back" when swiping to the right from the *right* side of the phone. And when scrolling down, it's also possible to close the note because EN on iOS issues a "go back" when swiping any kind of horizontal movement to the right from anywhere on the phone -- not just the left edge. Yes, the title of the post is worded poorly. It shouldn't say "Please STOP closing a note with horizontal swipe", rather it should say "Please STOP closing a note with a horizontal swipe from the right side of a note when trying to scroll to the left content in the table" or perhaps "don't close a note when swiping to the right from the right side of the phone".
  2. Is there any other kind of task management program that allows for this kind of functionality (to have a due date that spans more than one day)? I can't think of any.
  3. In iOS, your finger should be close to the left edge of the screen for a swipe to the right to trigger going back to a previous view. Try swiping to the right with any iOS stock app starting the swipe from the right half of the screen. It won't go back... In Evernote you can place your finger on the right half of the screen and swipe further to the right and it goes back to the the previous note or list. I don't think this is standard iOS behavior. Edit: https://learnui.design/blog/ios-design-guidelines-templates.html METHOD OF NAVIGATING BACK CONTEXT IN WHICH IT WORKS Tap “Back” action on top-left of screen Any screen on which a “Back" action appears Swipe right from left edge of screen Any screen on which a “Back” action appears
  4. 60 MB is a very low number. If you want to use Evernote for free and you want to add very many attachments (or attachments of significant size), then you might want to consider uploading files to somewhere else (G Drive, Dropbox, etc) and link to them from a note in Evernote. Evernote's model for storage is different than most file storage services. Most services limit the overall amount of data that you can *have*, whereas Evernote will limit the overall amount of data that you can *upload* in any given month. Doesn't matter if you delete it 10 seconds after -- it still counts against you because it was uploaded.
  5. You're right -- it was easy. 😃 Thanks for this. I was always doing it with the mouse and it didn't occur to me to use the keyboard. Using the mouse doesn't seem too bad to me though. Bottom tag area for Mac: Command + apostrophe Edit tags menu for Mac: Control + Option + Command + T
  6. It's a small thing, but this is a minor pet peeve of mine too that you can't center an image in the new v10 version of Evernote, but you can still do it in the Legacy version (which it sounds like you are still using on desktop anyway). FWIW -- I don't really mind that I can't center images anymore, but I'm still hoping they make it possible (once again) in a future release.
  7. And maybe double check that Evernote is allowed to make notifications on your mobile device...?
  8. I just upgraded from Plus with their 40% off of one year for Personal deal. My Plus membership renewal, which I had just paid recently, was set to expire in July 2022. I ended up paying something like $13 at the time of upgrade and my Personal subscription now goes to the beginning of September 2022. The $13 was the difference between what I had currently paid for Plus to the end of the old term, plus the two extra new months. I paid directly with credit card outside of Paypal or any App Store program.
  9. Was just thinking about this some more today... Perhaps Evernote wants to discourage super long notes as long notes make syncing, loading times and other things more problematic. Imagine a 40+ page note with 20+ tables, 50+ headers, 50+ tasks etc. and the syncing and rendering and other issues that could occur. If there were a TOC and internal linking then it would encourage users to create longer notes and so EN would be shooting themselves in the foot to some degree. I hope that this *isn't* the case (that this is something they *could* do, but *won't* do), but it doesn't seem too unlikely that it *is* the case. I'm more of a long note (aka document!) taker myself (not 40 page, 50+ table long though!). I've only got just over 1,300 notes at the moment, but if I broke those out into logically smaller notes I could easily have 40K+ 20K notes. I use to look at the plan limitations of 100,000 maximum notes and think "why would anyone have so many notes?". Well, I can answer that now -- it's because maybe my notes could/should be broken into multiple notes.
  10. I was a fan of tabs on MacOS too. I also use the Windows desktop version and I always wondered why there wasn't tabs on that OS version. I think Windows was also lacking the Cmd-J "Switch To"... which is now back in MacOS and is also now in Windows too. So that's cool. So maybe if and when tabs ever come back, it can come back to Windows so the Windows peeps will know what they were missing out on! (What's funny is most Windows users probably *don't* miss it now because they never had it to begin with.) I've been able to work-around the lack of tabs ok by opening more notes in new windows and using the web version as well (which works great except for lack of keyboard shortcuts). There is always the legacy version that could be used as well. I'm really liking the unified look and feel between the MacOS and Windows versions of Evernote.
  11. Not sure if this will help you and if you already knew, but you can zoom in on *everything* in v10 on MacOS with Cmd + and decrease it with Cmd -. That will make the editor text appear bigger/smaller and it will also make the sidebar text (and everything else) appear bigger/smaller
  12. I'm guessing you've seen this Evernote blog post about some task enhancements: https://evernote.com/blog/whats-next-for-tasks/ It doesn't look like formatting the color of the task is on their roadmap -- unless this is it: "More flexible formatting of tasks in the note editor—for example, the ability to indent tasks as part of an outline." -- but that would be cool if they did it. "Use more than one flag color" is perhaps on their radar, but the blog doesn't mention they are working on it. I know you said you didn't want to do any work-arounds -- but perhaps prefixing your task text with an emoji isn't too bad of a work-around - since it adds right to the task and makes it visually different. Something like this: You can also query by the emoji too, so you could filter all your tasks of type: 📖 (but hrmm - this doesn't seem to work for the ✪ emoji so YMMV here with the filtering on different emojis)
  13. Well — kind of crazy to jump ship for one feature that is implemented a little better or at least not so horribly, but… https://getupnote.com. Whatever image appears first in the note in UpNote is the one that shows in the thumbnail. I guess this means goodbye! 😃 (And fwiw, I agree that we should be able to have some control over which image shows in the thumbnail.)
  14. Thanks - I appreciate the input. It’s just a different way of thinking about taking notes for me to break them up into smaller notes like that for some of my larger notes. I’m hoping with the new v10 structure that they could/would add it, but I won’t hold my breath. 😃
  15. Side note -- I can't believe more people don't think having a built in table of contents (for just content in that note) is an awesome idea. Must just be one of those times where you are the outlier, but you thought you weren't. (And in this case, I'm the outlier.) Btw, my opinion is that this table of contents should live in a sidebar and not be embedded in the note itself. (But being able to embed it in the note itself *also* would be ok too.)
  16. I'll have to beg to differ and say I'm not even sure that really serves as a work-around. One of the benefits of having all the content in the same note is that you can still scroll through the whole content easily. If the content is broken up into multiple notes, then there is no way to scroll through it all. If you had a note with 50 different headers, you'd break that up into 50 different notes and have to go back and forth between each note. Also, would the 50 different notes keep the same order? It would depend on what the sorting setting was and you'd have to prefix the note title with some kind of text that would keep them in the order you wanted.
  17. But what I'm saying is that I'm running v10 on Mac and I *don't* have this problem. I can print a long note and it generates as a multi-page PDF just fine. So I'm just saying that it sounds like a bug in your case and that v10 is not supposed to work that way.
  18. Not really... Pinning those notes to the top of the note list gives you context for just those notes in that notebook or tag. Just making certain notes shortcuts separates them from their grouped context. And if you had hundreds of notebooks or tags, then the shortcuts just becomes this super huge list of all your "pinned" notes combined.
  19. Doesn't the browsr you are using have built in spell check?
  20. This is awesome -- thanks for sharing. I had https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/articles/208313828-How-to-use-Evernote-s-advanced-search-syntax noted down, but I forgot about it. It makes me wonder how many of the people griping about not having Boolean search unless they are Pro don't realize they can do these searches. Like -- if they don't even use the power of the search that they already have... do they really even need Boolean search? But, to johnseidel's point -- it's not clear that you can do those kinds of searches in Evernote. But then, to be fair, I believe that's the same with a Google search though -- there are lots of ways to filter google searches that you can't get from the UI. (You'd think that people that want to learn advanced search techniques would do some online research into how to do it.)
  21. I hope that's in their pipeline too. It's one of the most upvoted general feature requests: https://discussion.evernote.com/forums/forum/304-general-feature-requests/ Couldn't that be problematic though? What if you had more pinned notes than the size of the window allowed. Like say I'm using one machine with a big monitor so it works fine, but on my 13" laptop I can only see one or two notes (or none) in the scroll area.
  22. Is Evernote v10 working well for you right now? If so, I think you are going to be fine. It works very well for me -- I don't have any issues that are preventing me from being productive with Evernote. I'm really digging Evernote (v10) now. I suspect that's the case for most people and so they have no reason to say anything. They have no need to come to the forums and talk... they probably don't even know the forums exist! (I didn't know the forums existed until I first moved to v10 back in October and had a few concerns, but it's been pretty smooth sailing for the last couple of months.) One thing that I have noticed is that a lot of people have used Evernote for a very long time and this v10 is probably the biggest change that has ever happened. Some people don't adapt to change well. There are legitimate issues for some users that need to be addressed -- but I have none.
  23. I'm on a Mac (running Catalina) and version 10. I can print a multi-page note and save as PDF and I can also export a multi-page note to PDF. But.. what do you mean by multi-page note. Are you just talking about a very long note that requires more than one page when printed, or is there some other kind of note that I'm just not aware of?
  24. Only somewhat related -- sometimes I won't put in the recipient's address until I have the message the way I want it. I do this in regular email when I'm sending a reply when I'm concerned about sending prematurely. I actually can't tell if you can do this in Evernote though cause I'm just a Plus user and the share by email feature isn't available to me.
  25. Did you happen to click the 'Expand Note' button in the top left-hand corner of the note? If you do that, the sidebar gets hidden and it persists even after closing and re-opening. I could get the sidebar to show again by creating a new note (in addition to clicking the "Collapse Note" button in the top left-hand corner).
