*Checkb*DropNote Icon...
by ruwth Author IconMail Icon
When I click on the dropnote icon, it inserts this:

{dropnote:"LINK TEXT HERE"}{/dropnote}

I have learned that I can highlight the text that I want to have hidden and when I click the icon, it is where it needs to be.

Then I have to type the words I want to replace: LINK TEXT HERE.

However, because it is three separate words, I can't just click on the phrase to select it and replace it.

I would be able to if it looked like this:

{dropnote:"LinkTextHere"}{/dropnote}

LinkTextHere would convey the same meaning but act like one word letting us click to select it.

It may sound silly but I use my phone and Kindle a lot and selecting can sometimes beu a pain. If I could just click on the phrase to select it, it would make the dropnote icon easier to use.

Even on my computer, click to select a word is easier and faster than placing my cursor and manually selecting the three word phrase.

This isn't a high-priority but I would think it would be a quick fix.

What do you think, The StoryMaster?
