Milarvoz 0 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Hi! After the new upgrade, I noticed something is missing in the status bar. The word count. I tried for a few times then I noticed the pattern. When I just select (click on) a new note, the numbers will "blink" for a moment then return to the blank bar. An example of the blinking and the normal display (ya it's mostly Chinese stuff) When I open a note as a new window, the status bar always shows word count tho. Anyone knows the possible cause of this? Link to comment
dconnet 529 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 This is fixed in 6.11.1 Link to comment
ADS18 2 Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 This is not fixed. Still as Milarvoz describes it: word count shortly blinking when clicking on a note, after which it disappears. Please tell me what to enable where to make the number of words/characters/size show all the time. Link to comment
skellyink 0 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 I have Evernote for windows updated to 6.11.2 and disappearing word count in the status bar is still an issue. Link to comment
dconnet 529 Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 It will be fixed in the next release. (When I checked 6.11.1 earlier, it seems I hit the edge case where it did work) This was a case of an optimization in a seemingly unrelated area causing a regression. Link to comment

When switching notes, we just swap in the idle one and destroy the old one. The code updating the status bar was written with the assumption that There Can Only Be One.
