[Already Implemented] Weblinks in Notes
When doing a copy/paste from some websites into notes, some web links are also copied. Edit weblink doesn't allow you to remove these links, so I have to delete and then retype the info without the link. We need a way to remove all weblinks in a note or at least the selected one.

Re: Weblinks in Notes
I don't understand. If I highlight/select a web link in a rich text Note box and press the Delete key then it gets deleted.
That is very similar to selectively deleting anything else in a rich text Note box.
Alternatively, you can hold down the Ctrl and Alt keys while opening the Note to get a plain text Note box.
The weblink can be deleted there too, or everything except the Display Text can be deleted.
Maybe you are talking about removing the Web Address but retaining the Display Text.
That can be achieved by selecting and Cutting the web link and then using right-click Paste Unformatted Text.

When I tried that it deleted the text also. I just switched to using plain text instead of importing into tables for now. I liked using importing into the tables as it saved me a lot of typing to align columns.

Re: Weblinks in Notes
Sorry, but you have not tried all my suggestions. The later ones preserve the Display Text. Especially the last paragraph.

Re: Weblinks in Notes
I'm closing this as the feature required already exists in FH.
