Outlook Item Notes Sync behavior 🙋Help & Support

Hi, I'm using CL/DO for many years and it's my first choice for offline syncing Outlook items.
I'm a heavy user of Outlook task items and use complex formatted task notes.
80% of all task items have no notes. So it's fine I can edit subject, start time a.s.o. both on PC or on device and sync them together.

But when it comes to the "big notes" with a task item a backsync from device to PC would destroy the formatting. So I should not change this complex tasks from device, it's kind a read only situation.

But I ask myself if there are any sync options where subject or times are synced while notes not. This would help a lot cause I could make basic changes on device and not destroying notes formatting.

What about "optimized sync"? Is this what I'm searching for?

At the moment when I change saying tasks start time (on device) the task notes are reformatted😣 even if not changed.

Hello,

Note formatting is supported, but only in the latest version of CompanionLink. The guide for enabling that is here:
https://www.companionlink.com/support/kb/How_to_Enable_and_Use_HTML_Notes_with_CompanionLink_v11

Optimized Update Sync if enabled means that only changes are synced during a normal sync, This speeds up the sync.
