Re: Clipboard manager by default in Fedora 11
Ian Chapman, Mon, 27 Jul 2009 21:47:23 +0800: I'd like to see some consistency between how apps handle clipboard content, when 1. The user highlights content and pastes using the middle mouse button 2. The user uses the copy paste menu options or hot keys. Read this http://www.jwz.org/doc/x-cut-and-paste.html first please.

I'd like to see some consistency between how apps handle clipboard content, when 1. The user highlights content and pastes using the middle mouse button 2. The user uses the copy paste menu options or hot keys. They work as designed. They're intended to be separate. The middle click paste buffer is the 'junior', the ctrl-c / ctrl-v paste buffer is the 'senior'. Anything you cut/copy with ctrl-c / ctrl-v will overwrite anything that's currently in the middle click buffer, but not vice versa. That's how it's intended to work. The behaviour is always consistent if you understand the relationship between the buffers. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
