changes to notes app behaviour with change to Sonoma (from Catalina)

macOS Sonoma has changed the way scanned (notes app, > new note > camera icon > Scan Documents) objects presented are handled. Previously when accessing a scan done on iPhone, using the MacDesktop notes app, one could use <right clicK. and <shows scans>, or drag the object in notes app to the desktop (or elsewhere). This functionality has disappeared or is hidden somewhere.


Now the only object type available seems to be .pdf, and one cannot get at the contents (text content) of the pdf as was previously available by selecting the text in the .jpg object that was available in the notes app. Previously one could select to use .jpg, .pdf. or even plain text i think. Anyway, our workflow has been broken and we are a bit ****** about that. Who knows, the new arrangement may be far superior, but we just cannot see it.

iMac, 10.10

I am extremely disappointed that apple have changed the way you can san images and documents on macair OS Sonoma. It is now very difficult to use and stressful. The previous way to scan documents was far easier and certainly user friendly. I do not know what precipitated these changes but it does not work for me and I am seriously considering moving to a different brand of computers as a result of their changes. I absolutely hate having to scan any required documents or images now. I BEG APPLE TO PLEASE CHANGE IT BACK TO THE WAY IT WAS!!!
