SUGGESTION: Don't Treat Clippings Like Notes

When I change the default font setting for notes, it also changes for Clippings. But Clippings aren't notes...they are clippings. In other words, I generate the content of notes, but the content of clippings comes from the original resource. The Clippings should look like the original; the font should be the same as the one for resources.

Would it be plausible to either have a separate default font setting for Clippings, or to simply have the Notes font setting affect Notes only and have the Clippings font default to the Resource font?

Hi Doc,

While I do agree with you that it would be nice if what we copy into clippings would look like the original, I would like Faithlife to merge clippings and notes together like they did with highlighting and notes. This is one reason why I think Logos/Verbum has such a large learning curve - too many sub-systems.

I agree with Doc.

And I agree with Tom [:)].

I see your point but I am not sure how I feel about it being the default resource font. But I do agree it should not be tied to Notes settings.
