Unable to clip from Firefox

Postby MickS » Sun Oct 07, 2012 4:42 am

Attempting to clip text from Firefox produces an error message. A new blank note is created but no text is copied. Works OK in other apps. Tried changing the keyboard shortcut with same result. Using latest Firefox (also didn't work on older version), latest CintaNotes free on Win XP SP111.

Cheers

I don't get an error, but can confirm creation of an empty note. I reported this a while ago. Alex was not able to reproduce this. In the meantime i started using the firefox addon "AutoCopy" which allows me to grab information more easy. Btw, the addon is also available for Thunderbird, which makes up a wonderful combination.

Hi and thanks for reporting!
This is an old "heisen"-problem, which is really hard to track. Usually restarting Firefox helps.
Also running CN with admin rights can help as well.

I'm currently working on implementing switchable debug logging functionality, which will allow
any shipped CN version to write a debug log when this is enabled via a command-line switch.

I'll get back to you in this thread when this version is ready!
