Sometimes CN does not clip from MS Word

Postby RSchiaffino » Wed May 24, 2017 3:23 pm

This happens only occasionally, but often enough as to be annoying.

Expected behaviour:
1) Select some text in MS Word
2) Hit Ctrl+F12
3) A new note is created immediately with the selected text

Actual behaviour (only sometimes):
1) Select some text in MS Word
2) Hit Ctrl+F12
3) A new note is created after several seconds but it is blank (no text, only the title)

Ctrl+F12 - is used by Word (default setting) for Open command. It seems like conflict between CN and Word.
It's impossible to lead us astray for we don't care even to choose the way.

Hi Riccardo,
please try the following:

1) Make sure that Word is not running as admin whereas CN is not (if so, either run Word as limited user or run CN as admin)
2) Increase time interval CN is waiting for data to come (clipping.waittime.seconds parameter in settings file)
3) Try using a different hotkey like Oleg suggested
4) If nothing helps, please collect a debug log of such failed clipping attempt and send to me
