Limits on notes?

Postby gbmik » Fri Apr 26, 2013 7:52 am

Hi, I have just started trying Cintanotes and wondered if there was some limits on size of notes but from other info I have found on here it would appear not in the sort of size I am talking about, 20-odd lines, but I have found that trying to take notes off some web pages just results in a title (that is not part of the text I selected) and none of the text being copied but if I break it down into smaller pieces it is saved as selected.
e.g. go to this page:
http://labnol.blogspot.co.uk/2007/05/se ... moves.html
and try taking a note beginning at "However, here's a secret trick" and ending at "#[Urchin Tracking Module]"
all I get in this case is a title saying "Shhhh! A Secret Google Search URL That Removes Adsense Ads " and the rest of the text is missing.
Am I missing some trick to selecting text or something?

It works for me (Chrome 26, Win7 x64).
Basically, since CintaNotes clipping works via clipboard, when the note comes empty, it means that the source application has failed to place the data into clipboard before timeout (5 seconds now by default).
Try increasing the "clipping.waittime.seconds" parameter in the cintanotes.settings file.

Thanks for the info, increased it to 10 (it was set at 3) and it works OK for me now.
