I have some documents that need to keep private (to prevent right-click actions like copy to clipboard). Have set field $KeepPrivate = “1” computed on compose.
It works strangely. The right-click > copy does something (hour-glass shows momentarily) but if I then do Ctrl-V or right-click > paste, I get the pop-up box for a search - but not exactly the same as if I do Ctrl-F. The box header is “Starts with…” and it does the search properly according to what I put in.
Does anyone experience this? Is there a way to “fix” it so that nothing happens either on copy or on paste?
Subject: does it for me if …
if I already have text on the clip board and I do Ctrl-V in a view or folder then the search box pops up. Been doing that for years.
Subject: ah ha!
I didn’t make the connection between what I had in the clipboard and the search box.
But surely this is a fixable bug! There’s no way Ctrl-V should mean search in Windows.
Anyone at IBM listening??
Subject: I use that ability
It saves me a lot of time to look up a document if I copy the key to the clipboard, go to the view and Ctrl-V to paste it as a Find.
Unfortunately, as soon as you’ve copied a notes document, the notes ~clipbrd.ncf takes precedence, and I don’t get the ability back until a restart of notes 
Does anyone know of a way to totally clear the Notes clipboard so that I can get the Ctrl-V Find ability back?
I’ve tried deleting all the docs in ~clipbrd.ncf and deleting the file altogether, but the client still has the ‘I’ve got something on the clipboard’ flag set.
