The Forums do mild? - you learn something new every day....

Sadly Evernote are impervious to bribery, not to mention ambush, attack, barrage, battery, belligerency, blackmail, condemnation, denunciation, flattery, incursion, invasion, maltreatment, mishandling, mistreatment, molestation, opposition, oppugnation, resistance, or violence. However they do improve things with time, so we can all hope... Besides waiting is much cheaper than any of the alternatives and involves rather less effort.

Zimbra it seems to me is webmail, like Google. The Chrome clipper will move Gmails directly to an Evernote - you might try something similar with your Zimbra page..

If you store a DOC file in Evernote you can get it out again; if you export to PDF or HTML - which are common formats - there are conversion utilities on the web to create DOC files if you need them.

..and a spreadsheet, a music/ video player, a photo library, a backup service...

Try forwarding the emails then rather than sending directly or by CC or BCC. You can probably set up a rule in your mail client or using IFTTT to manage this if you need to..

Hmmn. OK I'll concede - I can't argue JM's technical points, and I do agree that the editor is very overdue for attention. However when stuff doesn't work exactly as I'd like it to, I tend to look for workarounds as with the 'embed a file' suggestion. It hasn't turned my life into a constant trial, and I'm a jobbing writer so I tend to churn the stuff out - as you may have noticed. As to Times New Roman 12 becoming TNR13.5 I'll have to plead (even more) ignorance.

We may have to disagree here - I think Evernote does its job when translating faithfully(ish) from dozens of different display formats to its own note structure, and shouldn't be responsible for translating that format back across the same dozens of different formats into another faithful representation. It's possible to read and translate the code coming in, but you can't provide a catchall output if you don't know what output will be required. There is an obvious exception to the above - if we are talking typed text only, then yes I totally agree Evernote bold 18pt should translate to Word or anything else bold 18pt - but again full word processor suites tend to have a few more bells and whistles than the current editor, so may show the page wider, insert random margins and randomize picture sizes. There's an easy way round this - do your layed-out note in your WP of choice and attach it to the note. Include the content in the note (if it's not searched and indexed by Evernote) so you can find the content. Doesn't seem to me to be the fundamental defect that it's being painted. Do I want better editing? Definitely. Doesn't stop me doing presentation work using Evernote - I just don't do my layouts here.

Hi. User forum here? I think you're addressing the wrong crowd. Also Evernote doesn't say it's a layout / design or anything else tool, and it does show clips accurately. Your problem seems to be when you try to paste into other applications - shouldn't you be complaining to them? I agree it could be better, but you really know not of what you speak when you glibly imagine that there are "substantial technical challenges" - in some cases it just ain't possible. And "If this happened I'd upgrade to Premium? Really?"

Hi - many people would be complaining if the line wasn't turned into a link, so I think you may find there's no easy way to avoid that. Is there a major reason why you couldn't just leave it as is? You could try pasting into Notepad or another text-only editor and from there into Evernote.. come to that you could paste directly into Notepad and attach that file to Evernote. Don't think there's a way to disable formatting though...

We talking Windows or Mac here?

Hi. The Notebook you're calling Family is actually a stack not a notebook so you won't have a share option for that. The "subnotebooks" are Notebooks so can be shared. You could share all the notebooks to all the family, or combine the notebooks into one (tag the notes with the name of the family member) and share that. Business has the same options.

It's not random unless you take two photos of exactly the same size - if you crop one even slightly, you should be able to force Evernote to choose your preferred picture.

It's not a problem, it's was/ is a user suggestion that Evernote have not yet found the time (or the inclination) to implement. Since it's their ball, they get to choose the rules. Meantime sharing works for notebooks and notes, but stacks - no.

Try forwarding the emails to your account address?

Wiki fan here too. Lots of Wiki features would go well in Evernote including your suggestion and transclusion and [wiki scripting]...

+1 here - if there's an option for 'last Tuesday' or 'first Monday' that would be great!

Evernote started out with a (very) basic editor and have worked their way up to a basic editor with a few bells and whistles. I'm sure more improvements are on the way, but as has already been said - there are thousands of suggestions here for "basic features" that Evernote has to schedule over all the platforms it supports and without displeasing its increasingly large user-base by taking the wrong step. They'll get around to it.

Or you could go to the My Account page online and change the address?

Hi - welcome to the forums. I raised this ages ago - I've been a long-time advocate of mind -mapping and use it for anything new or complicated. Evernote's database and search functions are two aspects of a potentially killer MM app - all you need is the GUI. However while the Powers that Be have discussed the topic we don't know if there's any planned development. And Evernote typically don't share or discuss future plans. Thanks for raising it again though. You can of course attach your mindmap files to notes in their native format, and as OCR-able pictures to help with the management of a large library of files. But beware that maps which have sub-maps don't like being stored anywhere but on your hard drive. You'd lose the link. Single files just open in the app when clicked and save back to the note when closed, like any other files created with proprietary software.

Hi - welcome to the forums. Stacks hold notebooks, and you could have a 'home' stack of several notebooks and a 'work' stack of different notebooks. The only problem is you can't share a stack, you have to choose the individual notebook(s). If that doesn't cover what you need, trust me: Evernote aren't going to tell you when (or if ever) they'll get around to it.

And the actual "other products" would be?

Welcome to the forums. Suggestions hereabouts do get read by the developers, so they'll take what you say on board. There may be some practical considerations though if access to your account is shared so easily with many people - your upload allowance might be exhausted more quickly, Evernote could run more slowly - and inevitably someone has to do all the coding to make this happen. Would someone be that much more likely to buy Evernote because they can share more easily?

It may be possible that to add some features would be "extremely easy" - but if you have a detailed action plan for the next few days weeks or months which consists of other 'easy' features, this one is going to have to wait its turn. You never know - it might be part of the next planned release... but I wouldn't hold your breath.
