Summary: Blocks Middle Mouse Key Under GNOME GNU/Linux
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: unspecified
Component: Libreoffice
Product: LibreOffice
Hi Community,
This issue is with LibreOffice for years now. Under GNU/Linux it is the usual
work flow to mark text with the left mouse key and to paste it with the middle
key. This is much faster as the CTRL+C and CTRL+V copy and paste. There is only
one program I know which is interrupting this under GNOME, which is
LibreOffice. This is not special to any version, it is for all Versions I know,
from OO on and from Debian stable squeeze till Debian unstable sid (which
should be very near to the actual versions of the software).
So the issue is, that LibreOffice is blocking the common work flow at least
under GNOME on GNU/Linux.
Please see also this German thread where it was discussed in length:
http://debianforum.de/forum/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=141050&start=15#p920469
Let me cite and try to translate the summary from this post:
works: mark with left mouse key in LibreOffice -> insert in other program with
middle mouse key
works not: mark with left mouse key in other program -> than paste in
LibreOffice with middle mouse key
works not: mark with left mouse key in LibreOffice -> paste in LibreOffice with
middle mouse key
works: mark with left mouse key in other program -> insert in other program
with middle mouse key
It was assumed that maybe nobody recognized the faster GNU/Linux copy and paste
method?
Thanks, xcomm
