my normal cut a past using the button on the mouse work the way i would except. If I cut something it is moved to the PRIMARY and then other program can past that text. Also if another program cut text using the mouse it can be pasted using the middle mouse button.
The part that is not working is using the menus to cut and past. This should move the text on to CLIPBOARD and then other program using the copy/cut/paste should have access to text. Also other programs that put text on CLIPBOARD should be pasted by using the paste option from the copy/cut/paste menu. I have written a small program to watch the PRIMARY and CLIPBOARD. I can set the mouse button doing the correct thing but the menu does not put anything into the CLIPBOARD. If i use another program copy/cut/paste menu I can see the CLIPBOARD getting the text. Also I do see the text getting into PRIMARY when I select a text to be copy and when I hit the copy button it set the PRIMARY to NONE but does not set the CLIPBOARD. What need to be set to make the copy/cut/paste menu work with the CLIPBOARD ? _______________________________________________ pygtk mailing list pygtk@daa.com.au http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/
