Font Favorites
I would like to have a few buttons available, in which I could select a font/color scheme etc... so that anytime I highlight text, or just getting ready to add text in, I can click that button to use the favorited font settings.

Re: Font Favorites
Yes, it would be nice to have possibility to save favorite font styles (type, size, and especially colors - font and background).
Something like in MS Word, but more simple, of course (all in the name of simplicity, which is one of the trademarks of AllMyNotes :-)
In keeping my notes, i have a tendency to color "headers" of topics in specific color relating to theme, for easier finding and managing content later.
After all, I'm prefer colors to plain B/W :-)
Currently, I have to click 3 times for each text that is c/p from eg. browser to achieve this:
1) Font type (luckily, the default Segoe UI is on top; for some reason, Arial also find it's place above the line. Is there some option to define favorite fonts, that I don't know of? )
2) Font size (mostly 12, for headings 14 or 16)
3) Font color
This is waste of time, regarding my pace of formatting text (well, I like my notes to be as visually clean as possible).
Remark: number of default colors could be larger also.
This would cause color picker dropdown to be longer, but I wouldn't be complaining.
Thanks in advance for considering this request!

I have no top line in the list of fonts, above which I can find a default font(s) in it. How does one put a default font on top?
My problem is that I got used to the default that was given me, namely, Segoe 12. I very often want to change things to Segoe 12, but it takes about 10 seconds of scrolling down to see Segoe appear as a choice in the extensive font list.
Who has time for that? So I mostly wind up with crappy fonts that I've screen-scraped, and then that font remains when I add anything by typing.
So my current choices are
- "Yuck, a mess of fonts!", or
- change my preference to a font that begins with the letter "A", or
- 10 seconds of dull lifelessness after every copy-paste from a web page.
I mostly go for "Yuck, a mess," which is a shame since this is a great program, but when others see it, they're turned off by the font mess.
Of course, the ultimate answer is to have an option to convert any copy-paste to a desired default font. But I can imagine that's a complicated thing to implement. But locking a few user-defined fonts at the top seems like it was a feature at one time. That would be a big help.
