Hi. I see your edit menu includes paste, yet when I have something
on my clipboard to paste, the paste option is that sickly pale color
that signifies it is comatose and won't be active anytime soon,
which proves to indeed be the case when you click it. Nothing. I
tried to paste both ordinary text from Jarte (which is a souped-up
Wordpad) and mathematical text from TeXaide. Neither could be
pasted. I tried doing it after clicking on the dia text icon, in
several permutations (with and without then clicking on a spot) and
without clicking on the dia text icon. Nothing worked. I'm really
curious to see how this is done. I thank you in advance for any
help you may provide.
In 0.96, paste only means paste Dia objects. If you are editing an
object with text (like the default text object), you can use Paste
Text to paste text into that object. I honestly don't remember if the
development version understands paste as creating a text object if
there's no Dia object in the cliboard, but it could.
