What matter is that its a very small feature that could be implemented as an OPTION. So, I get it.Īll of these arguments are RUBBISH. I too would want an option to have that space turned off in some places. In addition to being a businessman and novelist, I'm also a dba and I use evernote to store sql code snippets that i commonly use. I'm sure you can site millions who hate after paragraph spacing for various reasons. Because they are business persons or novelists who work with large amounts of text and it is NOT acceptable to them to double tap enter after every paragraph or line of dialogue (boy is that where the lack of this feature gets annoying). I can sit here and tell you about the millions of people I know who are used to that spacing after paragraph because they are used to it from MS Word and other applications. Why? Because software developers (I know this, I work for one) can add things as options! There is a way to add this feature and allow both you and the OP to have what you want. Its pointless on forums to argue with OPs who are asking for a feature to be added to software. He's expressing a preference! There is no "wrong" here! I'm sorry, your tone is very friendly, but I find it very frustrating that when the original poster asks for a feature to be implemented (that really is about the only commonly used formatting option missing) and you simply tell him how "wrong" he is. It sure as hell wasn't there at any time I used the product. I don't know anything about having this feature in 2011, if I had known it was there, I probably would have come back then. But those line breaks spaces are STILL not there. Finally, just in the last month, I have come back to try again and have at least found that Evernote has a decent UI. I have always ditched it because of its text editing inconsistencies and bad UI. I have used it for writing novels off and on since its inception. We still get those ghost line breaks when we copy/paste out of Evernote on the Mac into text editors, so I suspect they are still lurking around somewhere In fact, my usage of Evernote plummeted back then, because I couldn't work on the iPad without mangling my text with a bunch of extra line breaks. Oh, how we raged against that feature! I don't know if we have any forum posts left from back then, but it was almost universally loathed as I recall. Maybe that wil come some day.īy the way, we used to have that extra line added after paragraphs back in 2011. Still, more broadly speaking, I think many of us would benefit from some control over the styles used to markup text, and if we could have access to a CSS-type stylesheet, then we could set the paragraph features, fonts, etc. Welcome to the forums! I don't see anything broken, so there is nothing to fix! A double tap on the return key gives you that space in-between paragraphs, right? In a Word processor, there are paragraph level elements that might benefit from the distinction, but not in Evernote. I love Evernote, but I just can't understand why you have had such a little care for such a (to me) obvious thing, over all these years that I have been a member.Īnd note-I have currently been a paid member for over a year-even though I have no need of the paid service, but because it only seems fair to throw a little cash your way. Google Docs makes this easy-without cluttering up its interface with a gazillion stupid functions-so don't give me that argument. Since then, I have considered it a "baby" thing to have to add an extra paragraph break between lines to indicate a break. I figured out (somewhere in 1983) that it was not like a typewriter-you could just tell the program that you wanted it to add a little spacing between paragraphs. I have been using word processors since 1983.
