Robbie 10 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Just like what Chrome does, putting highlight on the scrollbar to indicate positions of word finds. I think it could be very useful when one wants to search inside a long note. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 11,664 Posted June 30, 2014 Level 5* Share Posted June 30, 2014 May not be available in many of the OS's that Evernote supports... but thanks for the thought; the devs do read these posts, so you never know... Link to comment
ScottLougheed 1,316 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I can definitely see the benefit, I've always appreciated it in Google Books. I'd certainly smile if I saw it, but I'm not holding my breath unfortunately. The difficulty I think is that this sort of thing is not natively supported by the either Mac or Window's scroll bars. This means that Evernote would have to write their own scrollbars for the Mac and Windows versions and replace the system scrollbars. Certainly a possibility but I suspect a rather onerous undertaking. Link to comment
Robbie 10 Posted June 30, 2014 Author Share Posted June 30, 2014 I am not sure whether Chrome actually uses system native scrollbar. The scrollbars (of Chrome and Evernote) do not look vastly different. But I agree this is not like an easy implementation. Just have a proposal since this feature in Chrome brings much convenience.
