Improved screen clipping

You can now choose whether to send your screen clips into Evernote, onto the desktop or to the clipboard. Here’s how it works. While selecting the area you wish to clip, you have three options:

  • Do nothing, which will send the clip into a new note in Evernote
  • Hold Shift, which will send the clip to your desktop
  • Hold CTRL, which will send the clip to your clipboard

Flexible note views

You can now choose to show or hide any combination of the three view panels: left panel, note list panel, and single note view. Customize your look from the View menu.

And more

  • Made significant improvements to Asian character search and highlighting
  • Added the ability to assign a destination notebook for clips under Tools>Options>General
  • Added the ability to set the created and modified date/time to current time
  • Added the ability to drag and drop tags onto notes
  • Improved text note thumbnails
  • Improved pasting text and images from Evernote into other applications
  • Resolved problem with live-editing PDF documents
  • Resolved issues with new note creation
  • Replaced spell checker with a more memory-efficient version that supports additional languages
  • Improved access to diagnostic information about the Evernote application

Creating on the desktop, editing on your phone

Here’s a simple tip to that will let you edit notes created on your computer from your phone. Both Evernote for Windows and Evernote for Mac have a “Paste Without Formatting” option in their respective Edit menus. Copy the content that you want to keep editable, create a new note, then Paste Without Formatting. That’s it. In the meantime, we’re working to improve our handling of rich text in our mobile versions, but this is a good temporary solution.

    I would also like to see the ability to add columns or rows to tables. Without that functionality they are basically useless.

  • Arnljot

    I don’t get it. I use 3.1 and can drag tags to single or multiple notes. Now this seems to be a big issue in 3.5 Have I missed something

    BTW, I’ve been with Evernote since beta, and I simply love it. I recomment Evernote to everyone. Big fan, and I need to get an Evernote T-shirt. Just got a Snap Scan S300 duplex scanner, and waow what a game changer!!!!. Scanning two sided docs and business cards (including the scribbling on the back) right into evernote.

    Thanks

    You guys have to add highlighting to this program…it is keeping me from fully moving to your software…everything else is great, just need the highlighter!

    Just read all the comments. I have to admit. I have been experimenting with Evernote for a few years. It never had the features I needed. But last month I installed 3.5 and after playing with it for a while I found that it finally met my basic needs. I have since upgraded to premium and love it.
    I have found a workaround for the 500mg monthly limit. I have hit my limit with 15 days to go for limit reset. I simply created a folder “Evernote File Later” I set my Scansnap to scan to this folder. Now everything goes to this file until my reset date. I will transfer all the files after that date.
    There are some features that I would like to see in future updates

    search by tag on mobile

    drawing tools

    calander in sidebar

    ability not only to import a folder but to sync it with files in folder- I have a folder that I have already added the contents of the folder to EN, but if I add the folder back, it is going to reload all the files in it and duplicate them on evernote.

    encryption on the fly or whatever you would call not having to select the text and then encrypt it

    Thank you Evernote team

    I’m new to Evernote but very much intrigued by what I am seeing. There are several comments in the above thread about the inability to add rows to a table but no solution offered. It seems to me that such a limitation would make tables pretty much useless in Evernote. Did I miss something?

    Great Job!!!! THX

  • Simon Dong

    When I close the note list panel,I can’t find anyway to navigate to next note or previous note.

    I want a portable version.

    I really miss the clipping panel and that’s why I keep using the old version. The new function (screen clipping) only saves images, while I need to use plain editable text. Also, if I get it right, it needs to be opened again and again, while the clipping panel stayed open, helping me easily copy text from various sources (eg in a research).

    The highlighted or not tags (depending on whether the specific tags could or could not be found in the specific notebook) also worked better for me.

    Finally, I find the old version more clean-cut and more beautiful. Too many info and open-by-default options in the new one, while we need to focus on the notes themselves.

    Thanks for the very good product, anyway. I hope my remarks helped.

    I want a portable version too :-(
