I have a large number of Notebooks (100+, one for each client I work with) and am constantly jumping between them on a daily basis. On the sidebar, I have to scroll up/down to find the notebook I'm after. I'd like to be able to just click into the sidebar on any random notebook and start typing and have the sidebar scroll and highlight the closest match. Just like you can on a folder list in Windows/MacOS. It would make life sooooo much easier. A keyboard shortcut to move the active screen area to that sidebar to begin typing would be nice as well.

I find it cumbersome to have to switch to my tags overview whenever I want to move a tag in my sidebar. Because I have one nested tag for 'Active Projects' and one for 'Inactive Projects', and it would be much easier to manage these when tags can be edited directly in the sidebar. Thanks! -
I'd like to suggest an improvement to the usability of the Shortcuts entry in the sidebar - it took me a few attempts to work out how to use it. This problem is that this is the only sidebar entry that doesn't do anything when you click it - instead, you have to use the tiny grey arrow to the left to expand a menu entry. This is not at all obvious given the behaviour of all the other items in this menu. Can I suggest that clicked the text of the Shortcuts text either expands the menu directly, or shows a list of shortcuts in a similar manner as clicking the Tags entry? -
Prior to version 7, Evernote supported hiding Recent Notes in the sidebar. Version 7 only allows an all or nothing choice with hiding Shortcuts and Recent Notes. Linking those 2 as a single toggle does not make sense. Setting up Shortcuts is an intentional activity. I wouldn't set them if I didn't want to use them. Recent Notes is not the same. I don't want to see them. Ever. Please restore prior capability. -
I used some command once I think that closed my sidebar. I reopened it, but now every time I bring up evernote the sidebar is closed by default. Anyone know how to fix this? Edit: It's a mac

Just upgraded to v7 (MacOS), and noticed the following sidebar behavior. With the disclosure triangle closed, you can still select the top-level item (like Notebooks, or Tags), and the middle panel displays a full list of child items. But if you try to select Shortcuts with the disclosure triangle closed, you cannot do it. Seems like the behavior should be consistent, and it would certainly be helpful.

When I add multiple documents to Evernote from my scanner I usually have to adjust not only the title but also the creation date, assign tags and move to the correct notebook. I could do that much (!) faster if I had a sticky information sidebar rather than open the info dialogue by clicking the icon or pressing the keyboard combination.

Would be great if Saved Search were elevated to a Sidebar item. The current implementation on the Mac is inconvenient and, in many ways, broken. The Mac application limits the number of viewable list items and provides no way to scroll. In comparison, the iOS app's list is fully scrollable. As part of adding to the sidebar, would be be great to include: 1. nesting saved searches 2. add ability to star/favorite searches to display at the top of the list 3. provide Evernote- and/or community-produced searches to highlight/increase the value in the feature.

Hello, I have been frustrated by the inability to remove the "Notes" category from the sidebar. If I go to View > Sidebar Options then I have the option to show or hide every category except Notes. I organize everything into notebooks, so the separate access to all notes is superfluous. Please consider letting me hide Notes as an option. Thanks -
Nesting tags is a great organizational feature but it would be much more powerful if selected tag hierarchies could be added to the shortcut sidebar just as nested folders are. I know you can see them in the Tags Sidebar, but if you have thousands of tags, which I do, it's impractical. It would useful, say, to drag an "Action" tag hierarchy, with a dozen tags, to the sidebar and be able to collapse and expand it to access the individual tags. This seems so obvious, I'm wondering if it's possible and I just can't see it. Any ideas?

In the shortcuts sidebar, the windows version of evernote displays an arrow to the left of the notebook stack (when you hover your mouse over the name) which can be clicked to expand the stack easily. The mac version requires you to right click the notebook stack and choose expand/collapse which is more cumbersome. Please make the mac version work similar to the windows version. -
Hi there, It is very frustrating when I create a new note (in a notebook with many notes) and the note snippet does not appear in the sidebar -- instead, I must either scroll or search to view the note snippet. The user should automatically be taken to the note snippet in the sidebar once created. I hope this makes sense! It would make duplicating or moving the note MUCH easier.

I use the split-screen functionality of my macbook a lot... pretty much, constantly, and evernote is always up on (at least) one side of my screen. But, every time I do this, the sidebar minimizes. It doesn't completely hide, but it narrows to the point where all you can see are the icons (notes, notebooks, tags, etc...) and I have to manually open it back up with my mouse. This process is often glitchy, for whatever reason, and frustrating in general. It would be nice to have the option to disable this auto-reduction or even to be given a keyboard shortcut that can quickly counter this. They keyboard shortcut might be nicer if there are users out there who wish to do the opposite. Note: I am aware there is a shortcut that allows you to show and hide the sidebar completely. This is not what I am speaking to. Additionally, after the sidebar has already been minimized, the shortcut only "shows" the minimized version after you hide it again, unless, of course, you open it up manually with your mouse. Please and thanks! -
I was just minding my own business trying to be clever, thinking I could export a list of tags. Without testing it using only a few tags first, I tried dropping all my tags onto a note in the sidebar. I guess it must have been a shortcut to a note, because the result is that there are 164 tags in the sidebar shortcuts list. Not a train smash. I could manually delete them one-by-one, but if there's a quick option it would be good to know it. I tried closing Evernote, editing the .plist file at ~/Library/Preferences/com.evernote.Evernote.plist, then opening Evernote. But it has no effect, and Evernote re-creates it. I tried opening the sqlite database, but it's encrypted which I guess I should be thankful for. I was able to find a script for exporting all tags via the EN API (shared as a tip here), but nothing for resetting the sidebar, or just the shortcuts list. Any ideas? -
mac Current notebook not highlighted on the sidebar
Lenny_Leonard posted a topic in Evernote for Mac
Hello, I'm on a Mac. I select View/Sidebar Options/Notebooks to visualize all my notebooks structure on the sidebar. The problem is that the current notebook that I'm working on is NOT highlighted in any way. Is it normal? Is there anything I can do to change this behavior? It's not very user friendly because it's difficult to know where I am on the notebook structure Please refer to the attached screenshot. Thanks -
Hi Folks, After your help here. I have been using Evernote for a while but recently had a massive reorganisation of how I structure my notes, away from notebooks and using tags instead. I previously was part of a shared notebook on recipes with my wife, however, her tags were showing up in the sidebar. Despite looking for a solution, I couldn't find anything that would let me just view my tags only, there were a couple of solutions on these forums but they didn't work out so I bit the bullet and left her notebook - she was a massive Quinoa fan so no great loss if truth be told ;-) Most of the tags have gone as a result but some remain both within the Tags view under All Tags and on the sidebar. Normally you can right click and delete them but that option is greyed out and I cannot remove them either from the Tags view or from the sidebar. When I log on to Evernote on my iPad it just gives me my tags and nothing else. The shared notebook is no longer with the notebooks view so I am stumped as to why they remain. I have uninstalled and re-installed Evernote and the issue remains, be grateful for any suggestions as to how I can get rid of these phantom tags! Many thanks for any help you are able to give, Gareth -
I used the list of recent notes a ton in the old version. In the new update, that list of recent notes has now disappeared. When I click on View> Sidebar options, "recent notes" is greyed out. Why? Under the notebook title, you can click the drop down icon and "recent notes" is listed. Yes, I know. But this just adds a step. I want to see my recent notes in the sidebar like I used to. Anyone else have this issue?

Hi guys I use the side list view in my Evernote application... I cannot however make the side list view smaller than a certain point... Also there is no option to 'collapse' it and to 'reopen' it... A button to do this would be awesome... I like viewing my notes n the actual evernote application without opening a 'secondary window' for full view... Is there anyway to expand/collapse the side list, for increased space? This is important to me on my Laptop, as I am almost always using two apps side by side... I need to be able to easily increase/collapse my view size of my notes... If not possible I think this would be a welcomed feature... Thank you

I've noticed that you can view only your tags (not tags associated with shared notebooks) when you click on tags and it is in the main Evernote area. You can then click on the down arrow in the middle and select "All Tags", "My Tags", or "Personal Tags" As others have noted here, it would be very beneficial to have this same feature in the sidebar tags. Thanks! -
I am a longtime Evernote user but still getting used to the Mac version on my new machine. 1) I REALLY miss the flexibility of organizing tags in the sidebar by dragging and dropping, creating nesting tags from a right-click menu, etc. I also miss creating notebooks by right-clicking "Notebooks" or stacks in the sidebar. PLEASE add this functionality to the Mac version! I hate the extra steps of going into the Tags and Notebooks views to organize. 2) Please allow me to change the Created date by clicking on it, rather than having to open up the info window and change it there. This really slows me down when I am adding older documents to EN. I would also love to batch-change the Created date of several selected notes. 3) I would also love the ability to create a note with a preselected (or several preselected) tags. For example, if I have selected tag "recipe" and am looking at all my recipes I would like a button "+ New Note with tag recipe" like the current "+ New Note in Notebook XYZ." As is, creating a new note bumps me to my default notebook where I can no longer see my notes tagged "recipe. I then have to tag the note and click again on the recipe tag to see them all again. Laborious. I use Evernote for GTD, reference documents/going paperless, personal journal and notes, recipes, and kids' homeschool portfolios. In short, everything. Thanks for maintaining such a useful product. Please continue to improve it! -

Feature Request: I'd like to be able to display a saved search in the sidebar. Under "Saved Searches" and NOT under "Shortcuts". Using EN on MAC (Direct). -
Hi there, I'm an active premium Evernote member and have enjoyed the service for many months, however I've found a missing asset on my Android device that I can't live without. I actively use my sidebar to provide convenient access to my most popular/important notes. However, I can't replicate the sidebar on my Android device, on the home screen. So my question comes in two: Can I replicated my sidebar on my Android ( Samsung S4)? It looks like there's a space to add pages to the home screen, is this feature currently available? Zuber mentioned Geoff would be looking here to tag this for Android users. Hey Geoff, thanks.

I have a good number of shortcuts in the sidebar. I think of them in different groups and would like to organize them on the screen in a way that reflects my thinking. Is there a way that I can put in dividing lines or spaces to cluster the shortcuts?

I JUST got Evernote. I'm learning "The Secret Weapon" and I've run into an issue. Clicking on a sidebar tag switches me over to "All Notes" from my "Actions Pending" notebook. This isn't ideal, since I have a "completed" notebook as well. Which means when I click on, say, the tag for my "Polaris" project, no matter what notebook I'm in, I suddenly see current AND completed tasks. I know I can command click but it seems a reasonable bit of functionality to include out of the box so I'm here. Asking. Thanks!
