I'm having a bit of an issue that I don't recall having previously. I find that if I add information to a snippet, then do a ctrl-t to add another snippet or use the tools add or remove anything, the snippet is erased.
Is this working as designed? I haven't used Realm Works in quite some time but I swear it didn't use to work like that. J |

That doesn't sound right. I'm certainly not having that happen.

I've had it happen a few times.
For me it sometimes happens with Herolab portfolios. I always thought it was because I hadn't saved the article. I get to the habit now of saving before doing the clean up snippet thing and haven't had a repeat |

For what it is worth (probably very little):
Not something I have experienced, so no, not "by design" (which would also make little sense). Vargr Deputy Calendar Champion Legend has it, that the Tarrasque is a huge fighting beast, perpetually hungry. Sleet entered History when he managed to get on the back of a Tarrasque only to be ridden out of History shortly after. Using Realm Works, Worldographer (Hexographer 2), LibreOffice, Daz3D Studio, pen & paper for the realm World of Temeon and the system LEFD - both homebrewed. |

Well I didn't really think it was by design but I've seen funkier things happen with software by design. Think I will try to do a repair. Thanks all.

I have also figured out that if I paste using the ctrl - alt - v method and remove formatting it doesn't seem to erase the snippet, either when opening a new snippet or changing snippet style. Now to do the repair and check for updates.

A wild guess - might it be something in what you copy and paste that causes it? A special unholy sequence of escape-characters that triggers something in RW?
Is it no matter what you copy and paste or is it only from that specific PDF or homepage? Just throwing the net a bit wider...

Hmm, I seem to remember I have come across a homepage or two and ditto PDFs that made pasting into RW a pain.
At least it is not all sources that cause this (but most likely just the ones you need most...). What if you export the homepage as html - open it in an appropriate editor and copy from there?
