Description Christian Georgi CLA 2006-02-16 03:28:36 EST
When JFace's DialogCellEditor is activated, copy to clipboard action copies the whole property (name + value) instead of copying just the value. Reason for this is that CellEditorActionHandler does not get the active cell editor because it uses Control.isFocusControl() which fails for the control hierarchy of DialogCellEditor. I workarounded this by overriding isFocusControl() in the cell editor and delegating the request to the "real" control, e.g. Text or Combo. But this is certainly not the best solution.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
