When I cut and paste, it looses the flags.

[JC]

If I have a section of text which includes some flags, and I cut and paste
it, OneNote forgets all the flags. This is very irritating.

Are you cutting and pasting within OneNote or pasting to another
application?

If the former, remember to select the entire line of flagged text, which
should retain the flag when pasting into another area in OneNote.

If the latter, other applications don't support OneNote's flags, so that
data is not sent to those applications from the Clipboard.

Within OneNote. I cut the whole line. It forgets the flag. Very irritating.

Are you selecting the entire line?

Try this with a line of flagged text - use keys on the KB to select the
line:
Home, Shift-End.

There should be an extra space after the end of the line.

Then cut/paste. In that scenario, does the flag get copied?

 

[JC]

I tried what you said. I did not see an extra space at the end. It did not
remember the flag.

If you just do that one line, it will not "keep" the flag whether you copy or
cut.

however, if the line you want plus a blank line below it are copy or cut,
then the flag will be "kept"

try that

That seems to work. Kinda hokey, though.

If you just do that one line, it will not "keep" the flag whether you copy or
cut.

however, if the line you want plus a blank line below it are copy or cut,
then the flag will be "kept"

try that

Yes. It is related to have an "End of Line" marker. You and I don't see it,
but it is there, err, should be there.

Will this bug be fixed in the new version?? Shouldn't need to copy to the
next blank line.
