Problems with @ in Notes

Post by tahoma »

No idea why, but if I insert a @ into my Note it gets auto deleted, so I have to press @ twice and then it is available. Very strange! Why would any code exist that would auto delete anything I just written into a Note?

(does not happen in Tasks to Appointments)

The @ symbol is used for making quick links @NoteName

I attached a video recorded in a new database, fresh copy of 9.7.5

The first @link works fine, but every use of @ after that doesn't work right except when used without spaces.

Thanks!

Hope you have noticed that the space in front of a quick links @NoteName is not maintained during the current implemented replacement routine. Please take a look at that too. Important to know that I don't use the Del key. I type linear, and press Enter when the @NoteName link is suggested in the little pop-up window

See here (Duh, at least two spelling mistakes/typos):

Yep, this is derivative of the initial issue, already fixed in the internal builds.
