Jaunty has glipper 1.0, which is based on their python rewrite of the C source. I just looked at their python code, and it has logic in it to avoid forcing a text value when there is a binary object on the clipboard (which is what my C patch did that they incorporated into the C version). However, it does not adjust the menu to reflect this, so the menu currently lies to you about what will be pasted.
I did a simple test of OOwriter: added an image to a page, copied the image, and then pasted it onto another page, and it pasted just fine. I'm curious what your test case was where you saw a failure? One thing you cannot do is to copy a non-text item, close the program that put the item onto the clipboard, and then expect a non-text item to be pasted. When the program that has control of the current clipboard contents goes away, its contents goes away too, and glipper will then restore the most recent text contents it knows about to the clipboard (since it doesn't track binary content -- just avoids replacing it). -- Glipper makes copy/pasting of images in OpenOffice impossible https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/104432 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
