More wand fields

More wand fields

I love the feature where you can store commonly used strings, such as first 
name, last name, phone number, email, etc, and get to them with a right 
click.  It makes filling in forms SO much easier.

However, I wish there were a few more general purpose fields - there aren't 
quite enough for my needs.

Would Opera consider this?

Thanks,

Steve

You can add things to Notes and then right click on form fields to insert

Hey, I didn't realise that.  Thanks for pointing it out.

I'll give it a try and report back.

Well, I've tried Notes and they meet my needs.

To be honest I'd find it "cleaner" if I could put all my bits and bobs
in 
the one place, by having another few (three more?) "Other" fields. 
Having 
to use Notes to handle the spill-over is slightly inelegant, although of 
course it is now a very minor complaint.

Thanks, Eik, for pointing out the Notes functionality to me.  I hadn't 
realised you could get to them from a right click!

The Advantage with Notes - Steve

Is that with Notes you can drag them into any order in the Notes field on  
the left of screen |(if selected).
You can also drag a note of a web address to  the address bar of a open  
web tab. :-)

The latter can also be done from book marks.

You will not lose book marks or notes with drag and drop.

NOTE THIS WORKS IN 9.5 BETA i have not tested with previous editions.

Regards

Neville A Daniels
