Description

When selecting text in gobby and afterwards hitting strg+v, the selected text does not get deleted when inserting the text from the clipboard. Means, that the marked text is not replaced by the new text, but the new one is inserted before the selected text (which stays in the document). This is not the functionality a user expects and sometimes kind of anoying.

Change History

Changed 5 years ago by armin

  • status changed from new to closed
  • component changed from Gobby to libinfinity
  • version changed from 0.4.90 to 0.1.0
  • resolution set to fixed
  • milestone set to libinfinity 0.2.0

The main problem of this issue was in libinfinity. I fixed it with this commit. It introduces a small API change, which is why I did not commit it to the libinfinity-0.1 branch. However, you can still use libinfinity from git master (which has the fix mentioned above) with Gobby 0.4.90.

However, scrolling to the position where things have been un/redone will break with this. This is fixed in the gobby-infinote branch of gobby's git (which will lead to Gobby 0.4.91). So, if you need this, then you need both libinfinity and Gobby from git (until the Gobby 0.4.91 release, that is).
