Description
Kim Horne
have no idea what those keybindings do and why they would stop working. Doug, do you have any input? Kim, are you talking about the forms pages of the editor or the source page? if the latter, do those keybindings work in a plain text editor? I'm talking about the forms editor. They still work in the source editor. See Bug 67651. This is likely a problem because these keys are now being handled by the key binding service (and hence the cut/copy/paste command), rather than the native cut/copy/paste behaviour. This is likely related to (or a duplicate of) Bug 62886. *** Bug 92727 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** It seems to work if the text was cutted/copied previously in the plugin editor. But it does not work if the text was cutted/copied in an external application (for example, notepad). *** Bug 62886 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I am still unable to reproduce this, even with text copied from external editors. Can someone come up with a reliable sequence of events? thanks. Open a plugin XML editor Go to the extension page Add a new extension (doesn't really matter which, but lets say views) Add a new view Change the id to something identifiable Copy the id Add another new view Try and paste the copied id into the new view id element Nothing happens *** Bug 96226 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** The scenario in comment 8 worked for me with both ctrl-c/v and ctrl/shift-ins I was on WinXP. Do I need to be on a particular platform? Further experiments showed that the problem is the paste operation. Following the example in comment #8, if you paste using the context menu it works. This means that using the keyboard the copy operation works, but not the paste operation. This was on WinXP Sp1 (Italian O.S. and keyboard) and Eclipse 3.1M7. *** Bug 63613 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I am experiencing the same problem (CTRL-V for paste does not work in the forms of the plug-in manifest editor). I am using Windows XP. I have experienced this problem forever on 31 milestones, the context menu works, not the keys. I just was too lazy to to repot it at the time :-) For me it works as long as I do not change the page (RC1/WinXP). E.g. in the Extensions page for plugin.xml select an extension node, select some text and CTRL+C it. CTRL+V works as long as no other node in the tree is selected. Then select another node (the details page changes) and now CTRL+V does not work anymore (Context menu paste works) It does not work when you are trying to copy something from one openend plugin form to another opened plugin form, unless you use the context menu. CTRL+c/copy works, but CTRL+V/paste works ONLy with the context menu, keyboard action does nothing. A small but annoying issue... What is the current status on this issue? Is it going to be fixed for 3.1? *** Bug 79783 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Fixed. I was finally able to reproduce when I accidentally found Nick's scenario in bug 79783. The problem was occurring only when text was being copied between "child" elements of extensions. *** Bug 99311 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** verified on RC2. |
