Priority: medium
Bug ID: 62196
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: : copy-paste bug
Severity: normal
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Windows (All)
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Whiteboard: BSA
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 4.0.0.3 release
Component: Writer
Product: LibreOffice
Problem description:
I'm using Windows XP SP3 and LibreOffice 4 and I'm experiencing problems when
pasting to Writer.
After doing several copy/paste work, for this example, let's us say I've
successfully copied and pasted 5 times, on the 6th copy function, pasting into
Writer will paste the selection from the previous copy (the 5th copy).
However, if I test pasting into notepad or wordpad, the selection from the 6th
copy pastes just fine. But in Writer, it's clipboard is somehow stuck on the
previous (5th) copy.
Even if I do several more copy functions (7th, 8th, 9th selection copy),
pasting into Writer will always paste the 5th selection copied.
I have to point out that what we copy and paste are not just words or phrases.
We copy several paragraphs from a desktop publishing software (namely
InDesign), or from the browser, to a text editor (in this case, LibreOffice
Writer).
Our staff usually highlights the paragraphs and paste it into Writer.
Copy-and-paste function works fine for several iterations but then at one point
it will just repeat pasting a single copied instance.
It looks to me like it's not flushing out the internal clipboard (not the
Windows clipboard because pasting to Notepad, for example, pastes the correct
copy instance).
This was happening in ver3.x and we thought would be fixed in ver4.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Copy-paste several paragraphs at a time from a source (browser or InDesign)
to Writer.
2. Repeat several times
3. ....
Current behavior:
Paste function in Writer will not paste the latest copied item.
Expected behavior:
Should paste whatever currently copied.
Operating System: Windows XP
Version: 4.0.0.3 release
