What the Settings Mean

Title

Select the field where you would like the title of a browser page to go when using the Grab Web Address function. Since there is no way to predict what fields, if any, a new datafile will have, the default for this item is the Freeform Text Area.

URL

Select the field where you would like the URL (link address) of a browser page to go when using the Grab Web Address function. Since there is no way to predict what fields, As with the Title item, the default for this item is the Freeform Text Area.

Paste clipboard text and images at the end of the record.

Enable this checkbox to have iData 2 automatically paste any text and images from the clipboard at the end of the Freeform Text Area when using the Grab Web Address function. If the Title and URL are also going into the Freeform Text Area, material from the clipboard will be pasted below that.

Whichever setting you select for this, if you hold down the option key when selecting the Grab Web Address function, it will cause iData to do the opposite of this setting.
