Duplicate / split note

Just decided a note I have is far too long. Would be great to be able to duplicate it or split it.

The famous "Copy & pasteā€œ - C&P a note, thats what I do when duplicating a note.

Yeah, I mean, Cmd-A, Cmd-C, Cmd-V, three keystrokes! Learned that, well, a long time ago!

Hah! Didn’t realise you could copy and paste an entire note. I’ve been selecting the text, copying, creating new note, pasting!

And then copying and pasting the text I want to be the note title into the title field. This last is more complicated that it sounds: if you don’t actually delete the placeholder ā€˜untitled note’ you paste your text into those words, depending on where you clicked the cursor. And selecting text by double clicking a paragraph brings the carriage return with it - which makes a real mess of the title!

I’ll try copying and pasting entire notes when I get to my Mac.

Would be even better to have a ā€œDuplicateā€ option. I have an ongoing project that has a few things I regularly track so I created a Template note. Rather than selecting Copy Note, it would be great to have a Duplicate Note. Is this in the works?

It’s something we’d like to add yes.

Two years later, and still not able to just duplicate a note?

Please focus on basic functions rather than new features. Dull, I know, but the only features worth paying for are stability and reliability. Not being able to simply duplicate a note by right-clicking on it and selecting ā€œDuplicate Noteā€ (as one can, for example, with tasks in OmniFocus) is rather annoying…

Thanks.

If we would present you the list of all suggested features that would classify in what you would call ā€œBasic and Dullā€ category, you’d understand why not everything has reached the top of the list yet. We steadily keep on chunking through them and this one I’m sure will make it in as well, can’t promise yet when alas.

OK. Thanks,
