Here is a link that explains the Evernote logic. http://discussion.evernote.com/topic/22339-assign-specific-image-as-a-notes-thumbnail/page__view__findpost__p__113715 Also, the smallest dimesion allowed in the calculation is 75 pixels.

Here is a link to a discussion on this issue. There is no easy solution if you have several photos in one note. I guess if someone really wanted to promote a specific image, they could use a photo editor to re-size the photo to create the "largest smallest dimension". That's too much work for me. http://discussion.ev...dpost__p__92194 Evernote explanation: We select the image with the largest smallest dimension. There are some other rules, but that's the main one. Examples: 75x100 100x400 200x300 The "smallest" dimensions are 75, 100, and 200, respectively. We're going to use the image with the largest of those "smallest" dimensions (i.e., 200). There are probably better ways to describe that algorithm, but that's how we've been describing it internally.

It comes down to Evernote's priorities, not capabilities.

My gut feel is that any change in modifying Stack hierarchy will be quite a while down the road. So, here is how I would address the flat list problem today with a painless adjustment. This format will keep the associated notebooks grouped together with the Parent project stack. Abc Project (stack) - Abc Tasks (notebook) - Abc Notes (notebook) Def Project (stack) - Def Tasks (notebook) - Def Notes (notebook) Ghi Project (stack) - Ghi Tasks (notebook) - Ghi Notes (notebook)

This is the proper sign of an underlying architectural problem. Not necessarily. The prefixed tags are a helpful mnemonic device to remember the tag name.

Coming from a marketing background, I agree with your comment. For every written comment, there are dozens of unwritten, but similar supporting views.

Here is a response for a similar issue. http://forum.evernote.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=29355#p125388

Some comments from the Evernote CTO about their past experiences with corporate software issues found at this link. "Basically, a bunch of the people who built Evernote have a lot of experience in the "Enterprise software sales" business, and it's completely 180-degree different than Evernote's "freemium" personal memory service. It's hard to do both business models under the same roof, in my experience." http://forum.evernote.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=24540&p=105140&hilit=experience#p105140 And Phil Libin, the Evernote CEO said: "You're right about corporate being the revenue stream for most tech vendors, but happily that's not the case for us. Our direct consumer revenues from premium subscriptions and partner products are more than enough to make us a profitable and sustainable long-term company. The consumer business is booming for us and we have no financial incentive to switch focus."

I would toss the notes for all these subjects into one single notebook and tag the notes accordingly. Tag examples: Art-current Art-job Art-idea Des-bid Des-idea Des-ref And then some tags to describe the specific jobs or ideas (Metropolitan Museum, Louvre, Tate Museum, etc)

Thanks for the explanation. I guess if someone really wanted to promote a specific image, they could use a photo editor to re-size the photos. That's too much work for me.

The largest smallest dimension?

Sorry, I don't understand your question. Perhaps this weblink might be helpful. http://blog.evernote.com/2010/12/07/update-evernote-4-1-for-windows/

Actually I agree - I've never heard of latex used in math before, just the T.S.A. and my doctor.

Great idea - make it easier to create complex math

Check out the Evernote Blog (Tips and Stories). There are some interesting tidbids there. http://blog.evernote.com/ http://blog.evernote.com/category/tips_stories/

Why?

Sorry if I misunderstood you. Your first sentence started out with "My use case happens to be GTD", so I expanded on it. I also mentioned the variety of uses that a due date will offer and why so many people are asking for it. One of them could be the ability to manually sort notes in a sequence that is important to the user. To sort notebooks into a user-specific sequence, just use a prefix in front of the notebook's name. The drawback is you don't get the ability to easily re-sort the notebooks in a different fashion.

There are a lot of folks who would like to see GTD in Evernote. Even Phil Libin, the Evernote CEO, said on 4/05/2010: All notes will get a “due date” field in the next couple of versions. You can then use all sorts of third-party reminder and calendar apps with it. We've had a couple versions released since then, so I am hoping the due date field will be just around the corner (with the caveat that priorities do change). It is my experience that there are many ways to skin a cat with Evernote. (sorry for the poor choice of words PETA). I use the create date to track my GTD items in the future. But once the Due Date becomes available, watch out. There will be a flurry of new ways to work your GTD items. I could envision the new "Due Date" field being helpful for a journalist who wants to add chapters to his story and keep them in order. Another fellow in this forum was looking for a way to sort his Biblical notes based on the books of the bible. Kind of puts a different meaning to the End of Days. Using the Due Date as a sort method is not perfect, but it could be a nice step forward. And the "Due Date" field will allow for integration with third party reminder apps.

Interesting suggestion - Have you tried sorting by selecting the topic at the top of each column? Can you offer an example of what you want to sort? There are several work-around solutions that might address your need.

Format painting is not available in Evernote. It certainly helps speed up the work of a power user. However, the ability to copy alignment settings, font size, font style, text color, background color with one drag and click is certainly not a basic function, especially for a program that has to support multiple platforms and a variety of smart phones.
