Hello All, I'm running the most current version of ARC Pro Desktop and am having an issue when I try to add data to newly created fields in a shapefile (located in a geodatabase and otherwise). My workflow in the past has been simple: Open the attribute table, add a new field if needed, just click the cell and enter text or numerical data, easy. Now it appears to be locked? When I click and type, no data. I've tried setting up new test colums of different types, tried saving the shapefile outside of a geodatabase, ensured that they are not "read only"--All to no avail. It's driving me crazy and I'm hoping someone has some advice for what seems to be a really basic function that no longer works! Attaching screenshot of the field that currently shows all null values
Hi All, thanks for your replies. Edit is active and no other layers are in active editing. Now it appears that I can edit values in the shapefile version (which I copied to a different folder), but not the original feature class contained in the file geodatabase. Is this potentially the issue? Are attributes of featureclasses in a GDB locked by default or is there some other reason they can't be edited? Still feeling confused.
@DanielPhillipsTTU Are you able to make any other edits to the original feature class? Can you check if there is an editing session error on the layer by going to the List by Editing view of the contents pane? If there is an error, there will be a red exclamation on the layer. Hover over the red exclamation for the screentip explaining the reason.
This change is a significant reduction in functionality. In the past, when WebClipper would have a bit of trouble clipping a complex page (typically with images) I could simply visit the note, delete the garbled image, and then paste in the correct image.
Don't know if you have Medium access but try clipping this using "Article" in WebClipper: -networks-are-fundamentally-bayesian-bee9a172fad8 And BTW "Simplified article" screws up a lot of the images from this Medium post so I couldn't use it.
As you scroll down thru the clip when it gets to Evernote, some of the images are wacko - almost like they are magnified and out of focus. Using "simplify and make editable" makes this way worse - now there are more giant out of focus images, and worse yet, there are a bunch that are tiny clips with spinning circles on them. Try to copy and you get tiny tiny images. Useless.
So consider this a request to revert (somehow) to the old functionality. Or invest some serious work in "simplify and make editable" to fix a lot of bugs. Perhaps I should try gathering up some of these problems and submit them as issues.
13 years ago web pages were much simpler with basic html and none of the bells and whistles associated with modern web pages. May be the web pages you want to clip are still relatively simple in which case I sympathise. My experience is that the old way of doing things routinely messed up the formatting while the new system is better albeit with the significant disadvange of not being able to even highlight text.
Evernote is a company that probably survived because it kept up with the need for users to save and edit web pages as they are presented -- I am having trouble seeing how to do this properly in today's Evernote.
This "make editable" feature has been part of the Web client for awhile, and I've found it more useful than the old Windows desktop program in eliminating Web formatting that I don't want. But yes, if you wanted that formatting but just wanted to edit the text, the new way is less desirable.
Hi! I mostly use Evernote in Windows desktop and although new version 10 is more fancy, not being able to edit webclip (HTML) notes is a major setback for me! I'm evaluating downgrade to previous version and when it's no longer supported I will evaluate other alternatives to Evernote.
Although webclip feature is simply amazing and the best I have ever seen, I regularly need to add some text/remarks in the middle of the webclips. Usually, simplifying the webclip "kills" its formatting, images are lost and the note is nowhere as usefull as before...
If it was possible to export the webclips to allow full editing in another app (for example, Microsoft Word) it could help a lot (maybe I could edit the webclip outside of Evernote and then replace the content with the edited one without losing any formatting).
I would also like to edit a web clip. I used to highlight sections in a clipped page, but now this is only possible together with simplify. But simplifying totally messes up the page and is not an option for me.
Just adding another vote to the complaints here ... want to be able to edit a web clip as we could before without destroying the formatting. In particular, I would like to be able to just highlight the sections that made me want to clip the piece in the first place, so when I go back days/weeks/months later, I can zoom in to the key points.
I use Evernote (Legacy) for just two features that used to be free. One is the nested tags and full page for tag management and the other is this, clipping a web page and then editing it, annotating it, highlighting, adding pictures, all without losing the original formatting. "simplify and make editable" or leaving it in a non-editable, ugly webclip/html-note rectangle defeats the whole purpose of Evernote for me. I never paid for Evernote because I only need those two (removed) free features, not any of the paid ones. I would happily pay for a competitor if I found one that even just did the same html web-clipping editing as Evernote Legacy.
Editing a web-clip is essential for me as well. In the older-versions that was not any problem and makes Evernote even more functional for me. Not having this is anymore is a great loss of functionality. Can we please have this back again ( in the way it was )
Trying to use the new version without being able to edit or delete parts of a web clipping are so frustrating. Even simple things like clipping a recipe and wanting to add my own notes are not possible now. That changes so much of the functionality of what was useful in Evernote before. Please add this back!! Thanks!
Beside this I totally agree with @Mike P . There is a ton of web editors out there, each one trying to create web sites that look better than the competition. Wordpress alone supports 2 official editors, and there are plenty more 3rd party ones to use. And this is just one CMS.
You can use Evernote Legacy in parallel with Evernote 10.x. Run both at the same time. Edit your web clips in Legacy and they will sync with 10.x immediately. No brainer.
Still, Evernote should bring the editing capability back to 10.x. I have no idea what they were thinking. Duh. I can just picture a team meeting where the developers say that they need to bring that capabilty back, but the manager(s) say "No, it's not necessary. Users won't care. Executive decision. Woops. Dumb-ass.
You can edit - just simplify the web clip to enable the editing option. If you want to keep the original, duplicate the note before simplifying. If you want to annotate the original view, create a pdf from the web site and annotate it.
I first started using v. 10 at all precisely for its ability to make Web-clipped content editable, in a way generally superior to the legacy v. 6. I did that in the Evernote Web browser client, while continuing to do most of my work in v. 6. Meanwhile, v. 10 continued to improve, and I now use it happily (but continue to use v. 6 on an older Windows machine that is gradually being phased out of use).
I just had to search for 15 minutes to figure out why I couldn't edit a note. I tried to delete some of it and nothing happened. There should not be different rules for different ways that information was edited. But furthermore, there is no error message. I searched in help and found nothing. Then I found this one message. The answer is simple, clicking on the header for permission.
Software should use standard commands. They should be consistent, both internally and with others. Commands should be clear. Unless it is impossible, similar terminology, models, need to be used. I remember early days of DOS. Lotus used the slash key. Wordstar used dot commands. Word Perfect used the escape key.
We all know Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V, Ctrl-X. Escape can be used to leave a menu. Every command needs to be visible, or nested in a family. This form is clear to anyone. But I would never think to click on a header to get permission to edit SOME notes. The fact that people thought they could not do this should indicate that there is a problem,.
@Ryq G, I admit I don't find it to be a big problem now that I'm used to it. It was certainly surprising when I first discovered it (in the Web client), but the very ability to proceed to editing text at all was a revelation compared to Evernote 6. Even so, it's not perfect--I sometimes find that after simplifying there are long strings of spaces that have to be deleted. The uninformative gray box remains from the first days this was rolled out, and definitely could use some indicators.
I don't know, but I presume the reason for enclosing clipped text (and, I find, text from emails) in the Web box/frame is to allow the possibility of retaining all the original formatting if desired, with the possibility of editing it on purpose but not accidentally. Sort of an "opt in" approach to editing Web-originated content.
