Trouble pasting Chrome links/URLs [Known issue: see thread for workaround.] Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Prev Previous Post   Next Post Next
Hi,

I'm having trouble pasting links from Chrome's address bar into omnifocus - both in the quickentry window and that main application.

For the quickentry window, if I try to paste the link, it just closes the notes field without entering the link.

For the main application, it creates a new action, with the link in the notes field of the new action. In this situation, I end up with one action that has a title and no notes, and one action with no title and notes containing the link. I can delete the original action and retype the title in the second action, but its tedious. There is no way I can find to paste two links into a single action, as the paste operation always creates a new action.

I can paste these links into every other application I try, including those inside a virtual machine

This is a hassle, as it means I cannot use both Chrome and Omnifocus - the use case is too common - pasting links into tasks. Safari works ok, but as a browser it's not a patch on Chrome.

I'm using Chrome 5.0.375.29 beta, and OS X 10.6.3 - cheers,

Colin
