[Libreoffice-bugs] [Bug 55582] Pasting a drawing object while another one is selected overwrites the initial one
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55582 --- Comment #32 from Cor Nouws c...@nouenoff.nl --- (In reply to comment #31) Thanks for explaining Peter. I think that it's indeed good to take your remarks into account when working on a next step, the menu options that Lennard mentions. AFIACS, and understanding comments and the current/past way of working, the patch should be really fine for the moment.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55582 --- Comment #31 from Petr Mladek pmla...@suse.cz --- (In reply to comment #29) (In reply to comment #28) OK, fair enough. Again reading your comment 26, I think that is OK to commit. I agree that pasting to Writer from Draw when something selected overwrite nothing selected do not overwrite And from Draw to Draw never overwrite. I personally think that the above mentioned behavior is inconsistent and might cause confusion. I think that the relation between the where-you-paste-from and the overwriting/non-overwriting is hard to understand and thus not user friendly. Also I think that the following assumption from the comment #26 is just speculation: --- cut --- But when pasting from draw to writer, you supposedly have nothing selected, and if, you may WANT to overwrite this keeping the placement. --- cut --- I do not like that when applications tries to be clever and do surprising things. Petr are you still involved enough or could we ask another developer to have this finished? I am sorry. I do not have time to test the patch. To be honest. I have newer done huge documents or graphics in LibreOffice. I am not 100% sure what is the preferred behavior. I have got involved into this bug because it was my turn to take care of pending patches when the first patch was waiting in gerrit. All my comments are inspired just by my common sense. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

The last thing remaining would be the beautiful menu stuff, but right now, I am heavily involved into another project. And I had to see that when I do carelessly change something, a new bug would result, so the current behavior is better than a fix by a non-expert. So there is a note for the new expert what to do: Add a new menu point to all programs (sw, calc, draw, impress) Which is called: Paste into frame. This must have the effect to paste the clipboard into the frame of the selected object, overwriting it. THEN, remove this behavior from the ordinary paste command, but not earlier, or you will loose functionality. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

I just needed to teach writer that when the objects are selected AS SUCH, they are not to be overwritten. But what calc is concerned, It seems that the bug is hidden amongst the different input-shells in the depths of multi-threading. So far, I tracked the key-input until it reached a Post(0) command in vcl/source/helper/evntpost.cxx -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

But this only happens in Writer. I've also tested with Draw and Impress where the behavior is like one expect (as done in the other text editor). I think this should be changes the way you described it should be. It's what the user expect and it should be the same in all LO-applications. I've also tested this use case in Calc. There you can't even past the object if you have selected another object (nothing happens). You can only past if you select a cell only. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
