Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 112670
strange (copy-paste) X window selection result
Last modified: 2017-05-20 10:55:18 UTC
When I - copy any text in a shell or browser window using the primary mouse button (left), - change back to OO-Impress and activate the text box so that the grey border is shown - paste it using the middle mouse button → the complete active text box is duplicated: (see attachment for example). When the text bos was already active BEFORE copy, then it works fine.
Created attachment 70209 [details] presentation with simple example page
Created attachment 70210 [details] sorry, corrected the last text line in example
Please give a detailed step by step description. How do you copy with the left mouse button? When and how do you select the text box? Thanks.
I thought to have described it perfectly: - make sure no text box is active - use the left mouse to mark a word or so in the shell window or browser - change back to OO-Impress - click on a text to activate the text box - paste with middle mouse.
I use the newest version 3.2.1 of OO, OOO320m18. Please see also the attached little document for result.
Thanks, now I have it. Reproducible. Reassigned.
just to name it correctly: it's not 'copy&paste' but 'X Window selection'
renamed topic more correctly as "X-window selection" problem
Reset assigne to the default "issues@openoffice.apache.org".
