1/10/2024 0 Comments Evernote for mac 3.3The toolbar ought to be configurable, in my opinion, but keyboard shortcuts work fine, and this is not a burning issue for me. I'm a touch-typist and find it faster just to make a search, and type-ahead is not my thing. Tell it like it is - not that you think these will be addressed. ![]() What a shocker!! Please - let's get back to USABILITY! Not the awful hard-to-read rubbish that the interface has become.Īs you would have gathered - I'm sticking with v3.3.0, thanks.Īnd Grumpy - once again you're being too nice! Conceding that some of the bugs/lost features have a negative impact on you is WAY too nice. The question, for me, remains - WHY? Why is the toolbar not configurable, as it seems to be pretty much an Apple standard?Īlso the DREADFUL grey-on-grey interface. Even the simple things - such as the lack of a configurable toolbar (unless I'm missing something) in v5, which doesn't let me put a Print button on it, or change the positions of buttons, just for example. And also like JMichael, I still prefer v 3.3.0 by a large margin, and there is no way that v5 is tempting me to upgrade. I, like JMichael, have been keeping up with the progress (?) of v5, on my wife's MacBook Pro, while sticking firmly with v3.3.0 on my own computers. And of course, as I tend to make a lot of errors then immediately backspace over them and correct them, the type-ahead really has a hard time. With the type-ahead search, the screen was jumping all over the place in my peripheral vision as I typed each character, and didn't keep up even at MY typing speed. I have thousands of notes in multiple notebooks, and it is much quicker just to whack in the search term (typing while watching the keyboard) then hit "Enter" and see the results. The second reason I don't like it is that it slows the whole thing down. I stress that is MY situation, not everyone's, but for those who DO touch type and can watch the screen as they type, it may be a useful feature. First is that I am not a touch typist - I'm pretty quick (although there tends to be lots of errors too), so I watch the keyboard while I type, NOT the screen. If I may just chime in here - briefly: type-ahead search is of no use to me for a couple of reasons. IMO, when you get a large number of first-time posters who go to all the trouble to subscribe to this forum in order to post negative posts about Ver 5 you should be very concerned. The negative Ver 5 posts in these forums have come from both long-time forum members, but also many, many users who are very new to the forum. In summary, I much prefer Ver 3 even though I have been using Ver 5 daily for over 2 months.īased on the large number of users with a wide variety of workflows and computer skill that have strongly complained about Ver 5, I would guess there are a large percentage of users who also prefer Ver 3 over Ver 5. Each release of Ver 5 has had a large number of bugs, many more that with the Ver 3 and prior releases.I find the UI of Ver 3 much more user-friendly and it actually makes my workflow much easier than Ver 5.In spite of Evernote's claim that Ver 5 is "cleaner and less cluttered", I do not see that.I have not seen any benefits to the new UI of Ver 5.Even after using it for 2 months, I find Ver 5 harder to use than Ver 3.I have not found any compelling reason to upgrade my main production Mac to Ver 5.I have not found any new features in Ver 5 that I really wish I had in Ver 3.Ver 3 has contined to serve me very well.So, after over 2 months of use of both, I wanted to report on my experience. Lion)īased on the Ver 5 Betas I knew I did NOT want to use Ver 5 on my main production Mac, but I did want to test it out.
