Text capture limits
« on: July 24, 2013, 08:55 AM »
On CHS options, capture options, there is the section (upper right) labeled "Text Capture Limits".  For me, the 3 checkboxes are disabled.  The input boxes are live, though I can't put a number > 9999 in for plain text, but I can put in anything for Richtext.  I was copying a plain text web page and CHS doesn't put the text into quick-paste menu.  If I select half the page and copy, it does.  So seems to be a limit issue.

CHS 2.19.01 portable mode

Yes please, I just came here to ask the same. :)

I also need a higher limit. 20k would do (for me), right now it's 10k.

Here as well.
Q: what happens if I blanc out the 9999 ? Why not 'unlimited' by default (or add a [X] Unlimited  option)?

Unfortunately there is a functional limit to the size of the text clips that the program can capture in the current version.
But i'll see if i can't make it significantly larger.


Ok look's like i can pretty easily go from 10k limit to 1mb limit without any issue that I can see, so that will be relaxed in next release.
