This isn‘t only a special issue with the windows v10 app. Similar issues happened to me with the web version of v10. The thumbnail picture there seem not to be changeable after first applying, even if deleted. This is in my case only a phenomenon if watched in the web version. If I use other (legacy) apps I will see another picture im the thumbnail view (or no picture if all pictures in the note are deleted)

So this looks like a real v10 issue which leads to the famous, long ongoing and unsolved request for better or free choosing of images for thumbnail view... (look like this request is handled by trello...)

I just tried this on my windows machine...it exactly does nothing when hitting Ctrl + Enter...on my EN 10.7.6 for windows...strange that it is behaving so unpredictable over different setups. I am also using a convertible windows tablet. Mine is connected to a normal USB keyboard.

my fault: not [Ctrl]+[Enter] did the job in my case , it was [Shift] + [Enter], see above...

Today I tried  [Ctrl Shift] + [Enter] while a following image was selected - don‘t know why - but this helped:

I got a free line before the image...

correction, 2021-02-09:

• not [Ctrl]+[Enter] did the job, it was [Shift] + [Enter]
• the logic seems simple: while 'Enter' is supposed to insert a new paragraph and to move the cursor to the next paragraph, 
  [Shift] + [Enter] inserts a paragraph above/before the current selection and moves cursor to the new (previous) paragraph..
  (comparable with direction change using [Shift] + [Tab]...)

I tried the enter key as well, but without any effort...

I'm also used to insert more than one picture and to add lines and descriptions thereafter in between the pictures.

Tried now on actual web v10.7.5 with 3 (smaller) pictures dragged and dropped into the content.

The pictures got displayed both next to each other in on line / paragraph. If I select one of them left or right arrow wil select the other on but won't insert a cursor between the pictures to add some space, a line or a paragraph.

If I'm right before v10.7.5 the pictures would have been inserted in separate lines and the cursor could have been inserted between the pictures as described with the arrow keys.

But even on v10.7.5 there is still a simple (new) workaround now for me:

1. just adding a view empty lines below / after the inserted pictures and then
2. placing the second, third ... picture ad a proper place further below with drag and drop.

@Saphyre  for horizontal lines / dividers or checkboxes you can as well use markdown-like inline codes. if you enter „-“ 3times followed by a space you get a divider line, „[]“ followed by a space will insert a checkbox (at least inside a paragraph)

This rule and workaround has worked before v10.

With v10 EN seems do do so only while choosing the first picture to be added as thumbnail preview. At least on EN web v10 Version every try to change pictures didn‘t work in my case. There the  old picture even was displayed after deleting.

Havn‘t tried on desktop, because there I‘m still running legacy (with changed preview pictures...)

EN iOS 10.4 is quite usable, many bugs got squeezed. It is still slow on older devices, and I doubt this will change.

Unfortunately EN iOS 10.4 is even slow on newer devices which are not high end (in my case: ipad 2019, 32 gb and enough free memory, at least before v10...😞

Loading slow, memory consumption high, changing apps while editing longer notes for copy and paste nearly impossible. EN loses focus most of the time, sometimes even giving memory fully free, so loading, opening, finding focus starts new...

Spoken for fluently note editing - in my case - this makes EN nearly not usable. That's why I tend to do textwork and editing in other apps (with better markdown support anyway) while working with iOS... which would rise the question why using EN any further if I'd had to work with iOS most time, but this is not the case 🙃

For heavens sake I still can use

1. v10 web-interface for editing,
2. legacy on Windows for organizing and
3. android (legacy) while not at home and using mobile for fast reseach

Surely I would like to have a better and synchronized, performant cross-plattform approach, but so far EN 10 messed it all up... 😢😭
(but I still hope EN get's things fixed soon ...)

I do happen to have another question. Why does this version of Evernote take five seconds to open on Android phones with really powerful CPUs?

"another question" should then be raised in another forum-topic. (Please don't hijack topics, this messes up everything).

answer may be - as discussed to several other topics: the new version isn't natively programmed and integrated in your/our android / device environment. for cross-functionality and better common code development v10 needs to be kind of emulated in a special "Electron"-environment. This environment and changed content source sync processes need time to load, ram-space to store and battery power to be hold... (not only on android, but also on iOS, in the web-interface and on battery driven laptops/macbooks...) 😭

but as far as I can see EN is working on it and improving performance from release to release 😉

I recently upgraded to a new iPhone 12 Pro and have to say, well, all performance issues are gone 🙂 to be honest, my iPhone Xs was already a pretty fast device, but 12 Pro is different - there is absolutely no lag no nothing - BUT, I don't want to say, solve these issues by buying new hardware...

Good to hear that performance issues in principle could be solved.

But I would rather prefer a modern Evernote version  - as a web service... - wich would work sufficiently and fast even if you have non high tech devices, which needn‘t be old, but may be consumer standard and it should work even well if your internet bandwidth isn’t the fastest.

I would also doubt that this solution will lead to a mentionable conversion rate from free basic to paying premium.

(But anyway if time will come I will consider an iphone 12 pro... 😉)

Same problem here (without clicking on "home" !!!).

AFAIK this is a new issue which I am confronted with for the first time only since the last update 10.6.9 released 14.01.2021...

Ditto, +1

Welcome to the club, this new and intended behavior has already been detected and discussed in several other images.

I would suggest to read in theses issues why there are these two alternatives  and which pros and cons have already been discussed.

A simple search for checkbox an/or checklist might help...

See that EN has just released Android Version 10.4, with quite a lot of fixes:

Additionally they added / restored an EN widget. Missing of widgets was , as far as I can see, one of the most criticized lacks of v10 for Android and led to several harsh 1-star ratings and comments in Google Play Store.

May be they stalled the roll out because of this and other issues. And may be we will see EN v10.4 now soon again in Google Play Store....

I wish you would actually restore broken / lost functionality rather than add stuff I wasnt aware anyone wanted. 

Who „you“? Don‘t forget this is primarily a user to user forum... So me or us won’t be able to fix  anything.

I think that soon restoring broken / lost functionality is something most of us would wish most for v10, but don‘t forget: xmas is just over...😉

O.k. Good bye and good luck, I will stay with EN!

The code was already there as the feature has been in testing for months. I'm guessing something went wrong with a flag that was flipped, briefly enabling a feature that only testers should have seen.

As for the focus on new features vs. restoring old capabilities, the CEO has said they plan to do both in parallel: continue working on restoring some old capabilities while delivering new features. There are a number that have been in the "coming soon" section of the release notes for a few months now. Hopefully they get implemented soon, perhaps in next month's update.

Totally agree, this probably has been planned and developed parallel for months. It might just have been ready for delivering from ENs side of view.

I deeply understand frustration and anger about issues and missing and so far not implemented or even (re)developed functions in v10. But I simply don‘t get how some of us can complain about shipping this new feature - again parallel - with other features and fixes.

Do you want EN to hold back new and ready to serve functions which can improve workflows and give more options?

Checkboxes (without strikethrough and not as list) are useful and give a better overview if used inside a paragraph or as kind of complex form.

Logic is as well opposite of checklists:

• an opted checklist item stands for „done“ in a kind of to do list
• an opted checkbox item stands for „chosen“ option or „to do“ in a kind of form

If you organize a grocery list for example opted checkboxes give you a fast and better overview on mobile which of your standard products are to buy this time (checklist items in this case deliver a worse to read list...)

If I‘m not wrong this is an issue which had already been reported as issue a couple of days ago in a ticket to a beta testing forum, which erratically was to read public

Better fanboy than rant-boy

Who needs 50 notes on a home dashboard or even more 🤫 ???

It may help newbies I suppose who haven't developed their own workflows or someone who wants to see all the actual bits at the same time for some reason

But isn‘t this what we were talking about here the last hours as potential EN strategy? Just how to deliver enough values  and „unique selling points“ for new users and non power users to change from basic to premium?

This surely is no big thing or game changer for power users and no reason to upgrade to v10, but it is still a step forward in development.

I think this more the immediate focus than "valuation"
The first step is to simplify/unify the delivery mechanism i.e the client code base.
After this is completed, we'll see the implementation of features (unique selling point)

Totally agree, and how ShaneD's actual post shows, EN starts to announce delivering the first really new feature - with additional content only for paying users, to deliver unique selling points (the former - may be even by EN itselves - leaked "home"-dashboard:
