Hi Maksym, i use Firefox and the "Auto Copy" add-on (v 1.02). When you select text, it will be copied automatically to the clipboard. Also there is a popup menu, which allows you to add the URL from the browser to be added to the clipboard. After i selected the page information, i switch to my CN note and paste it. It Takes me only a few seconds to efficiently collect web links. Maybe this can help for you, too. The add-on is also available for Thunderbird.

I would like to have an option for smart exporting of all linked notes, e.g. "Also export all linked notes".

In which case internal links must be transformed to some file link. Linked notes shall all be exported to the same directory and may use an artifical file name. Also the note's title could be used by taking care of invalid characters, that are not allowed in the file system. This request refers to CN's feature of linking notes, that will be available with CN 2.0.

With the ability of notes to links (CN 2.0) one can also create a revision chain. To create a revision you would copy the note first (notes list, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, done). Tag the old one as "revision" and create a link to it in the copied note. Add "revision" to the global tag filter to hide revisions. Done. Really simple!

Hi Jeff, the crash has already been reported in the forum. There is also a beta available here: http://cintanotes.com/private/beta/CintaNotes_1_8_1_Beta1.zip , that should solve the issue. Use it at your own risk. Follow the discussion here: http://www.cintanotes.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1389&sid=c3dde008185bf3f3b0e9905eb600b761#p5596   Thomas

While doing researches on how a browser url can be retrieved using API calls i became aware of some firefox/thunderbird addons that can handle the job :) I now use "AutoCopy" which is available for ff and tb. "Copy Fixer" is also nice, but only available for ff. ...hm, while editing the post i selected a word to delete by using a double-click. It became automatically copied to the clipboard. This was not intended, but a side-effect of the AutoCopy extension. I will have to gain more experience with them the next couple of days.Stay tuned ;)

1a. Wouldn't it be more convenient to just add another shortcut?

>>Not really. How many system-wide shortcuts do we want to define?

1b. The number of different options is growing very fast, and I don't want future CN users to spend lots of time configuring the software.

>>Of course the best way is to have an optimal setup for all users. I doubt, this will ever happen ;) In the end you'll need some concept of handling individualization of the environment. How about adding the option to the settings file only? Documenting the settings in the ini file (some time in the future) would allow advanced users to tweak CN the way they like best without offering to many options in the GUI.

2a. How CintaNotes can know that no text is selected without first trying to copy it to clipboard and timing out?

>>I don't know. Isn't it possible to check if any text of the active control is selected before copying it to the clipboard?

2b. How can the URL be obtained without it being placed into clipboard by the application on (simulated by CN) Ctrl+C - and this happens only if some text is selected?

>>Sorry Alex, i have no knowledge on how CN manages this anyway. I thought you would use some special binding for each supported browser and getting the URL by directly refering to the URL control. How does CN handle this right now? Does it take two steps? One for the selected text, the other for the URL?

3) "Otherwise an empty note is created." - the note is not completely empty, its title is taken from the window title.

>>This might depend on the settings (file). If i don't select any text and press Ctrl+F12 it will create an empty note.
