Hello: I am using lyx 2.0.1 on openSUSE 11.2. I have an openoffice odt document and I would like to copy text from it into lyx. For this I select the text in openoffice writer, press ctrl+C, then I select the lyx window. First, the lyx window responds very slowly, it takes several seconds until it shows the (already entered) text. Second, I can not copy the text with ctrl+V: the info line shows that "command disabled". Also in the edit menu most of the paste commands are grayed out except for Paste Special -> Selection and Selection, Join Lines. There is no problem with pasting the selected text into a simple text editor. Copy/paste from a simple text editor into lyx also works OK.
When I want to paste the the text into lyx from openoffice, the lyx console window (if I start lyx in console window) gives the following message: GuiClipboard.cpp(89): No timely response from clipboard, perhaps process holding clipboard is frozen? Is this a lyx bug, or openoffice? How could I solve it? It makes impossible to do what I want. Thanks, bcsikos
