The result depends on the view type of the current view into which the paste occurs:
- Outline, Chart. By default the new note is the last top-level sibling (i.e. child of root or a hoisted root scope). By hovering the cursor close to a note, the new note can be a previous/next sibling or child of an existing note at any level at root or in a branch.
- Timeline. Always the last child of the root of the view. The new note will appear in the 'No Date' sidebar as it will have no $StartDate at this point.
- Map. Creates a new note at the last-clicked point. If an existing note is selected, the new note is created to the right of that note in the first available space.
- Attribute Browser, Crosstabs, Hyperbolic, Treemap view. Drop data is not accepted, so nothing happens.
The result of the paste, where a note is created is that:
- the title ($Name) is the text of the note (or the initial part with terminating ellipsis if very long).
- the text ($Text) is set to the plain text of the source data , i.e. all styling, links, etc. are not retained. If such styling is needed, first make a note, set focus in the text are and paste as this will retain (supported) source styling and HTML links.
