This is true in CP Notebook even when pasting in plain text from another application, ie, the pasted text automatically acquires checkboxes at the start of each new line.
In other applications, such as Circus Ponies Notebook, even MS Word, one can start a bullet list where the bullets ARE the checkboxes, completely automatically - no need to place the checkbox, it's just there at the start of the line from the get-go. This isn't so bad for a 5-point list, but if you're setting up a 300-line process script, then no, this isn't a good way to go. Specifically to your alternatives:Ĭheckboxes are hampered by the fact that you must manually place each one with either the hotkey or the tool button. Unfortunately, other applications which DO have the features to fill this need don't have that special online, cross-platform ju-ju that Evernote has or I'd go back to using one of those others. While 'completely worthless' is over the top, your suggested alternatives are not all that viable for heavy use, either.
Or it could be that Evernote is 'Completely worthless' and in that case you will be better off with another application.
You could use a checkbox, or if it's something you do a lot you could keep the fonts window open.
