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: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Asbjørn Ulsberg (asbjornu) Assigned to: Sean Egan (seanegan) Summary: It should be possible to disable all input formatting Initial Comment: I've removed all formatting toolbars and such in Gaim because I find it unbearable annoying to have messages that look like a christmas tree sent over the wire. I like plain text. This works when I enter text manually in Gaim, but whenever I paste, press CTRL+B or other shortcut keys, the formatting is still being preserved and done. I don't want any formatting whatsoever, and would really like this to be possible to remove in future versions of Gaim. In MSN Messenger this is no problem to turn off. Copy+pasted text is pasted as plain text only, regardless of its original formatting. This should be possible in Gaim as well. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Luke Schierer (lschiere) Date: 2007-04-20 11:00 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=28833 Originator: NO As we are closing this tracker, please submit any feature request that is still valid to http://developer.pidgin.im. Thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Josh (febrile42) Date: 2007-02-08 12:28 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1714158 Originator: NO The ability to disable ALL formatting in both outgoing and incoming messages was one of my favorite features in Gaim 1.x, so I second this feature request. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Asbjørn Ulsberg (asbjornu) Date: 2006-12-18 19:23 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=890346 Originator: YES This is still a bug in 2.0beta5. Not only does the formatting of text I paste get preserved, but it even takes over the formatting of the input field until I close the chat window. Say my default formatting is Arial 10pt bold and I paste text that is formatted in Courier New. For the rest of the chat session after I paste the formatted text, everything I write will be in Courier New. This is not a feature request, although it would be nice with the feature "Disable all input formatting". I consider it a bug that the defined input formatting gets overriden by pasted text. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Asbjørn Ulsberg (asbjornu) Date: 2004-11-22 19:34 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=890346 No, I'm not upset because CTRL+B gives me bold. I'm annoyed because "Paste as text" can't be made the default pasting mode. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Sean Egan (seanegan) Date: 2004-11-22 18:55 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=199625 I'm not sure I follow. You're upset that your text is turning bold when you hit Ctrl-B? As for pasting, you can choose "Paste as text" in the right-click menu. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350235&aid=1062419&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
