Rafael, I am not experiencing the search issues that you reference. I search for things every day and I seem to find them in a logical order. My search feature is working very efficiently and is taking a few seconds. I also use filtered searches with various tags, notebooks etc and that seems to work well also. I agree with you that the AI search is always useless. Perhaps you can do some experimentation to verify how the searches are working ie: create 10 random notes, use certain search terms, tag them a special way and put them in certain notebooks, and then play around with all the search features. Most of us see discrepancies from time to time but I have a feeling that something is not quite right with your description.

opening web links takes a minute and a huge power drain
idoc replied to McVitas's topic in Evernote General Discussions
I am not reproducing this. When I click on a link it opens up very quickly and there is no CPU drain. -
Did an experiment today: I clearly wrote a name with a big sharpy on a white piece of paper and scanned that into EN as a pdf. Over the next few hours I tried searching for that name by using a simple query. Although it is sitting in my Inbox notebook the note is not being found. I would like this to work because we have thousands of index cards in which the client's name is written on the top of each card. It would be wonderful if we could just mass scan all of those cards into pdfs (arranged alphabetically) and then do searches for the names. If the handwriting recognition doesn't work it means we need to rethink this workflow.

Am seeing the exact same thing on two separate windows 10 machines. I posted about this before even seeing your post. I figured out the same workaround ie: going to a lower note and then back to the top note. The spinning green circle never stops spinning in my case unless I do this. Have been seeing this for about a month or possibly longer. The spinning circle on the win10 is absolutely reproducible ie: it will do it every time. Does not seem to occur on the web platform.

I have 4 pdfs within a note and am trying to understand how to delete one of them. If I right click I get a drop box that gives me the option of "delete". However, if I select that, nothing happens. However, if I use the delete key on my keyboard, that seems to work. Another thing that happens quite frequently is that if I select a particular pdf that I want to delete, a blue box will appear around it. However, if at this point I hit the "delete" key on my keyboard, the entire note goes to Trash (not just that particular pdf). In fact, the method of deleting a pdf seems to depend on whether the pdf is in the "title" format or the "single page" format. In Legacy pdf files behaved almost as objects within a note ie: you could move them around, change their order, drag them within notes, copy and paste etc. They always appeared as "titles" and were nicely stacked on top of each other. In this version of EN I often struggle with pdfs and have never figured out how to set my preferences such that every pdf appears as "title" instead of "single page" view. In fact, even after setting this in preferences it reverts to whichever way it pleases.

I am still seeing this frequently on searches that I do on both my home and work win 10 machines. It's not entirely consistent ie: I do a search for "Larry" and the green circle starts swirling non-stop. I hit escape and back out of it and do the same search again and this time it works instantly. It's not an insurmountable problem because even when the circle starts to swirl I can easily just go to the second note in the list, hit that, and then back to the first note and no more swirling. In fact, I think the problem is getting better but it's still there.

Recently I've noticed that after putting in a search term I will get an endlessly swirling green circle. The green circle can be bypassed by clicking one of the notes found within the search term but it is an annoying issue. In the below example clicking on the first note does not get me past the green circle and I can't actually read the note. However, clicking on any note below the first seems to end the green swirling. At this point I can go back to the first note (Mexico city/Huatulco) and read the contents. This happens during every single search at this point.

Yes, they are trying very hard and we should be grateful for their efforts. At this point the new versions are coming constantly and they are trying to stay on top of the issues. Most of the time they get it right but occasionally there are missteps and this usually earns howls of protest from the peanut gallery. Overall I'm pleased with what they're doing and think that it's going in the right direction.

Why can't I insert text inbetween two images in a note?

Why can't I insert text inbetween two images in a note?
idoc replied to idoc's topic in Evernote General Discussions
Here is another related issue: How do you take 2 small images that are sitting on top of one another and insert some explanatory text on the right side of each image? Right now when I click on the right side of either image, the cursor just appears underneath the images. No matter how small the images are I can't seem to get text to appear next to them instead of under them. -

This does not work for me. -
On a related note: I seem to recall in EN Legacy I could go to the dropdown list of Tags and highlight as many tags as I wanted (by Ctrl-click), put in a search term and it would then search for all notes containing that search term and all of those tags. The current system is more cumbersome since I have to do it from the filter icon. Most of the time when I try to add multiple tags from the filter icon, it is cumbersome ie:I have to do it one at a time (I can't select multiple tags at one go). Also, I noticed that if I search for a term with multiple tags selected and I don't get any hits, there is no way for me to add other tags. The search is apparently over! For example, in the below examples I searched for "flubby" using those 3 tags. However, it didn't find anything. Now, I remember that flubby is in the NY8-2024 tag; however, I can't add that at this point. I literally have to hit "clear" on the upper right and I can now add other tags.
