>From what you describe it sounds like Chromium is copying its location bar text to the clipboard as a "text/uri-list" data type (which is all the information Evolution has to act on) instead of just plain text. "text/uri-list" is meant for use cases like highlighting a bunch of files in a file manager and then moving or copying them elsewhere via copy+paste or drag-and-drop. The bug I pointed you to fixed the case of copying and pasting or dragging and dropping highlighted files from Nautilus into the composer window and having them show up as a bunch of URIs. Expected behavior is to insert them as attachments. "text/uri-list" is the data type used to negotiate that. Chromium should be copying location bar content as "text/plain". _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
