I just upgraded to 8.2...and here are my observations and gripes:
- The font color is now defaulting to black...that's a plus. Much appreciated.
- The symbol and color of the icon is now changing to the previous symbol used...better, but I would still like to set a default symbol and color
- The font size is still 11, and there is no way to change it to a default size. PLEASE FIX THIS! I am burning up so much time re-sizing my notes without making the footnote numbers all distorted (I can elaborate on this if I'm not clear)
- WHY, when I have set my default font to SF Compact Pro, does all of my notes somehow default to Trebuchet? That was not happening with 8.1. So now I not only have to change the font size, NOW I have to change the FONT itself! You're KILLING me here!

PLEASE make these fixes so that I can cut the time I'm burning in re-formatting my notes to my preferences!
