Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. >Category: win32 Group: 2.0.0 beta 5 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Huey Van Iadore (hewhoe) >Assigned to: Daniel Atallah (datallah) Summary: copy & paste doesn't work when saving incoming files Initial Comment: While using the Windows port of gAIM: Copying and pasting into the text box does not work if text is copied from the gAIM message window. Neither the right-click menu nor CTRL-V work to paste text into the box. (Maybe this is an issue that should be filed for GTK instead? ) Workaround: 1. Copy the text from the gAIM message window. 2. Paste the text outside of gAIM (e.g., in wordpad) 3. Re-copy the text from wordpad 4. Paste into the filename box with CTRL-V. Request: It would be nice if gAIM had a function to automatically put the filename in the text input box. Filename is absent when saving incoming files. File names have to be manually input in the text box. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sadrul Habib Chowdhury (sadrul) Date: 2006-12-13 21:55 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1132702 Originator: NO Please use gaim or Gaim. Not GAIM, and especially not gAIM. The bug (the name of the file being sent not being put in the textbox of the file-selection dialog) has been fixed for the next release. Since you are talking about wordpad, I am assuming you are using Windows. The copy-paste problem might be an issue with GTK+ in Windows. There is an issue in GTK+ (in linux, at least) where the copied text cannot be pasted if you have closed the window you copied from before pasting. Is this the case you are seeing? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: guillaume (guillaume63) Date: 2006-12-12 09:41 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1666630 Originator: NO I am in the same situation with gaim 2.0.0beta5 on windows. gaim in previous versions was automatically proposing file names during file transferts and it no longer does that. Too bad it was a nice feature ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: joe_random (dphebert) Date: 2006-12-06 09:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1662204 Originator: NO I'm having the same problem with the copy/paste function. I'm using the windows port version 2.0 beta 5. I can copy text from a gaim window and paste into other apps. I can copy text from other apps and paste into a gaim window. I cannot, however, copy text from a gaim window and then paste directly into a gaim window. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100235&aid=1608287&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
