Description Anders Lindén

Build Identifier: M20100211-1343

When I copy/or cut some text that starts with a TAB character (often the occasion in a css file) the contents go perfectly into the clipboard. Thats easy to confirm using an external text editor. But when I want to paste that text into the css file, all that is added to the css file is a TAB character.

(The workaround for me is to always use space characters).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Write a css files where TABS are used for indentation
2. Copy some lines where the first line starts with a TAB
3. Paste it elsewhere in the document

I have been unable to reproduce this myself. I consistently see tabs being used. Do you have any messages in your error log when pasting the text?

I seem to be unable to reproduce the bug myself at the moment.

Anders, I'm going to resolve this as unreproducible. If you do find out more to help reproduce it later, please reopen the defect and document any new findings. Thanks!
