Description mslama 2009-04-10 12:36:40 UTC
I am not able to find any way how to copy any text from history view to clipboard. I wanted to copy changeset number.
Usability issue IMO. Linux/Gnome/GTK.

  Product Version         = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 090408)
  Operating System        = Linux version 2.6.24-24-generic running on i386
  Java; VM; Vendor        = 1.6.0_13; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 11.3-b02; Sun Microsystems Inc.
  Runtime                 = Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.6.0_13-b03
  Java Home               = /usr/java/jdk1.6.0_13/jre
  System Locale; Encoding = en_US (nb); UTF-8
Comment 1 Tomas Stupka 2009-04-10 12:41:19 UTC
select changeset & ctrl+c should work
Comment 2 mslama 2009-04-10 12:52:45 UTC
It is what I get. Still it is not what I need. I would like to copy changeset number and put it to url in browser. In
addition Edit -> Copy action is disabled even if changeset is selected. I would like to select any substring using mouse
and then copy it to clipboard.

Result of Ctrl-C (it is not clear that such shortcut is available and what will be actualy copied):

#144402 - Can`t run NetBeans on OpenJDK port for Mac OS X (SoyLatte) with default settings

Only way I found is to export changeset and then get what I need.

if you now select changeset & press Ctrl-C, changeset is copied too (as the 2nd column):
