Hi,
I haven't used this feature before. I want to search (grep) for some
text and get it to the clipboard in a Text Factory. I use "Process
Lines Containing" (as the first action) but no matter what I put in to
find, all option except "delete lines" are unavailable. The same
thing using the command in the Text menu (not within a Text Factory)
shows those options being avaliable. I can't see the reason why this
would be the case-- Can someone point me in the right direction?

Because Text Factory actions are designed to be chained together, and not necessarily be run manually, they do not provide access the clipboard.
Is there something specific you're trying to accomplish? Maybe we can offer another option.
