Saved Searches and Clips

Thasaidon · 11-02-2018, 08:31 AM

Hi

I have noticed the following.

Clips can be inserted using one of four functions, BUT some functions can be used to paste into more places than others.

clip manager F&R, stylesheet and html content files
clipbar F&R, stylesheet and html content files
context menu cannot paste into find and replace
clip view cannot paste into F&R or stylesheet

Saved Searches can be inserted into Find and replace in two ways .

Context menu with the cursor on F&R(limited space)
Saved Search Manager

Is it just historical or is there a rationale behind the above In any case would it be an idea to consider how these functions.have been implemented?

No rush. Just an idle thought by an idle fellow

The fickleness of of where things can be pasted (and how: context menu vs ctrl+p) has been brought up before. It's just pretty low on the list of things to look into, is all.

Thanks DiapDealer

Fine, at least it is on the list and I accept it is not a problem, just a bit of historical inconsistency.

I recently noticed it and wondered, why?
