Neil Roberts <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #6 from Neil Roberts <[email protected]> --- Personally I think that cut and paste being in two steps is less confusing. If you want to move some text a relatively long way, it makes sense that when you cut the text it shows you what the document will look like without the text so you can check if it looks ok, for example, make sure that you haven’t accidentally removed the spaces between words etc. Then you can scroll to the part where you want to paste, paste the text and then check if it looks ok there too. If this was done in one action then you would have to scroll back to the place where you cut in order to check it. In the animation in the article it’s quite hard to quickly analyse what has happened because the point where the text has been moved to is different after the move and I find my eyes have to search for the new location to see the new text. If you only want to move the text a short distance it’s already possible by just dragging and dropping the selected text. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
