I’m not sure why this report is still open for System Settings, since it has a merged branch there and r349 shows no Cut/Copy in password fields. But just in case … The original report and (apparently) the toolkit branch disables “Select All”, which is incorrect. There is no reason to disable “Select All” for a password field — you can select the field contents manually anyway — and GTK, Android, and iOS all allow it.
(Purely coincidentally, halfway through writing this comment I had to lock the screen, and returned to find that a stuck key had typed thousands of characters into the password field. Because the field did not let me Select All for deletion, I had to restart the PC.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1438976 Title: Lock Security - Passcode and Passphrase input field: selectall/cut/copy entry should not be available To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-system-settings/+bug/1438976/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
