another problem with importing from Evernote

I've just noticed today that when I paste a note from Evernote, it creates duplicate versions of any image in the original note.

Re: Export limits (MyInfo 7)

Thanks to both of you. I clearly need to do some more tests. My computer, incidentally, is a Surface Pro 6, fairly new. I've not had any problems before with other apps.

Re: Export limits (MyInfo 7)

Some more experiments today. I moved a group of notes (family history) into a separate section -- about 1500 notes this time-- and then tried to export it into RTF, HTML, and plain text files. Once more all of those files froze as I attempted to create them. On the other hand, I was able to export a...

formatting in note list

In version 6 it was possible to change the color of the font or the background of individual entries in the note list. Can we do something like that in version 7? I don't see any reference to it in the Help document.

Export limits (MyInfo 7)

I've been doing some experiments to see whether I can export a large group of notes that I want to be able to consult on my iPhone occasionally. There are approximately 5400 notes, all extremely short and almost no images. (They are in fact a group of bibliographical references that I have accumulat...

Re: importing from Evernote

Yes, I fantasize too about an ability to import entire notebooks from apps like OneNote and Evernote. But meanwhile I'd just like to be able to copy individual notes from other apps without being driven crazy by inconsistent formatting. I notice that MS Word has one particular command that would be ...

[fixed] importing from Evernote

Lately I've been experimenting with pasting notes from Evernote into Myinfo 7, and for the most part I'm happy with the results. MyInfo converts the note to my default Normal style and retains italics, boldface, and links. But there is one problem I can't overcome: the text is shifted to the far lef...

Re: highlighting search terms

Thanks. I hope you'll think about doing this. I'm sure I am not alone in depending so heavily on the quick filter.

Re: highlighting search terms

May I belatedly raise this issue again?

I find now that words are highlighted in the notes when I do a global search but not with the "filter section notes" command. I'm sorry to see this because I use filtering much more frequently than the global search.

adjusting size on screen (version 7)

Petko, this is a relatively trivial matter, but I find it difficult to adjust the size of MyInfo by moving the left and right edges of the MyInfo screen. My mouse struggles to find those edges, as if the area sensitive to manipulation is too narrow. This was not the case in MyInfo 6.

Re: [7.0.6] Tag font size?

Another possibility would be to change the font to boldface; that would also make it more visible.

[confirmed] pasting from other apps (version 7)

I am getting inconsistent results when I paste text from other apps. In every instance, the paragraph style shows as "Normal," but there are one or more aspects of the pasted text that differ from the "Normal" style. The three apps that I used for this experiment were Evernote, C...

Re: attribute columns (version 7)

P.S. I think I have now found the answer to my own question. In earlier versions of MI, if you wanted to add or remove a column, you had to right-click on one of the attribute columns and then scroll through a very long list. Just yesterday I realized it is now possible to select which columns are d...

attribute columns (version 7)

Occasionally I need to see the date when a note was last revised, but I don't want that attribute column visible all the time. (It takes up too much space on the screen.) I know how to create such a column, of course, and how to display and hide it. But is there any way of creating a shortcut to sho...
