Author: medmunds (Thomson Reuters) Date: 05-15-2012 09:09 PM Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We will investigate why this is occuring and schedule a fix at the soonest opportunity. BTW, sticky note text is indexed and searchable.  - Mathilda, the EndNote team

Author: stevewright (New User) Date: 05-15-2012 09:37 PM Glad you;re looking at this - one question you alert me to option that "BTW, sticky note text is indexed and searchable"   It is possible to search sticky notes yes - not from quick search but from full search. Unfortunately two key options aren't available: search PDF + PDF Notes (i.e. search text of a paper and my annotations) - furthermore the way annotations are (not) integrated makes them difficult to use like this   When I search I wewant to see a google books like interface highlighting the word or passage - you know, like mendeley does.   So the search results tell me a term is in the PDF notes (or searhcing the PDF) but give no useful or usable way to go from this search into the text.   WHERE the search result is found is not indicated clearly in search results, I can limit to searching in the PDF notes but then must go through the whole paper to find the right note rather than using the note to find the right bit of the paper.    PLEASE look at mendeley's rendering of notes IN THEIR INTERFACE - you can see all the notes made incorporated and visible, click on a note and jump to that bit of the text - now THAT'S annotation: usable, contextualised and used as a bookmark to key passages in a paper not something hidden in the paper where a word appears if you can find it.   Annotations and search results should help me find text not require searching in the text to find where the word appears.

Author: medmunds (Thomson Reuters) Date: 05-17-2012 02:53 PM Thanks for this additional feedback about the Quick Search and annotations treatment. We'll look into those improvements too.    - Mathilda, the EndNote team.

Subject: Re: Incorrect path Author: CrazyGecko (Guru) Date: 06-05-2012 07:50 AM You might check and reset the paths for the location of the assorted folders (e.g., Style, Filter, Connection).   Go to the EndNote toolbar, select Edit > Preferences. Then click "Folder Locations" from the EndNote Preferences dialog window. On the right-side use the Browse button to locate and set the path to each folder. Click OK when completed to close the dialog box.
