Try this plugin [Joplin Plugins - Joplin Evernote Links Replacer](https://joplinapp.org/plugins/plugin/com.joplin.evernote-links-replacer/)

Yeah, I see. It's understandable. The alternative I can offer you is to use your favourite external editor (typora?) or Markdown editor in Joplin.

Shift+Alt+1/2/3

HTML is supported in Markdown editor instead of RichTextEditor (the one you're probably using). There you can just write\paste\use shortcuts to enter HTML tags to format the note the way you want. Switching to RichTextEditor should leave all the formatting intact

again, HTML tags in markdown editor

Community members created several implementations of shortcuts for adding new notes. Off top of the search autohotkey one: [Global shortcut key to quick-add new note - #2 by LeoW](https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/global-shortcut-key-to-quick-add-new-note/48638/2)  
It's fairly easy to preset specific folder where this shortcut will create new note. So, I think if you stay with us this time, I bet you'll handle it 😉

Probably autohotkey should take care of this as well. Alternatively, you can automatically import screenshots you take natively (i.e. with OS/screenshot tools) to Joplin via hotfolder plugin

> Hello all, I have released a hotfolder plugin. Currently you can define the hotfolder, if certain file endings should be imported as text, in which notebook the notes should be created and if tags should be added. Soon I will have all my important workflow tools as plugins slight_smile
