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).

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.

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 :-)

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 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.
