Re: [Jmol-users] copy text from Jmol console

2011-06-23 Thread Angel Herráez
Sorry to rescue this thread so late, but I found a fix. I've just found that, similar to what was described for MacOS, the cure for this limitation in Windows is to select the text in the Jmol script console and (rather than trying to copy it, which cannot be pasted outside Java) drag the sele

Just like Bob said, on my Mac (10.6.7, Java 1.6.0_24) it depends on whether it is the signed applet (or stand alone app). With the signed applet or application, I find it handy to select text from the Jmol console (or the script editor) and then click and drag it onto the desktop to create a "text

Copying from the java console on a Mac (10.6 Safari) works fine for me. I can't remember if I made a specific setup, but the java console opens automatically when I load a webpage with an applet. Otherwise, you can probably call it via the top menu bar coffee icon. -Paul Le 6 mai 2011 à 20:05,

again, the "workaround" is simply to copy from the Java console, not the Jmol console. I know, with Macs that might be hard to find. Someone with a Mac can fill us in on that. It looks like the Jmol console can only be clipped from using the signed applet. I believe this is the intended behavior of

FWIW I've also found problems copying states text from the console in the past few days. I'm on Mac OS 10.6.x/Safari/Firefox/Chrome. Unlike Angel I didn't find a workaround. I used the signed applet to save a file which was why I asked about loading it on the fly. All the best Nick -- 3D Organic

Wayne -- I was mistaken, because all I tried to do was to clip it into the input box. I didn't realize that Java had its own private clipboard. Really, the solution is to clip from the Java console, not the Jmol console. A bit of a drag on a Mac, I think, because it's hard to find, but that should

Thanks, Wayne I was quite sure I had read similar issues here, thoughtit was with the Mac. I cannot confirm if 1.6.0_24 was working or not for me. 25 is not, and it's the first time I've noticed but there may have been several updates in between. Bob, thanks, now I see that the output of "s

Hi Angel, I recently developed the same/similar problem; copying from and pasting into the Jmol console the normal way failed on my Windows PC, in both Firefox and Chrome. Quite frustrating. However, it stopped working for me when the update was to Java version 1.6.0_24. So it seems one earlie

ah, and I am mistaken! I cannot clip out of the console either. I think if you look in the Java Console, whatever is shown in the Jmol console is there as well. No need to execute it. Just clip from the Java console, not the Jmol console. Bob On Fri, May 6, 2011 at 9:39 AM, Robert Hanson wrote:

I don't know if this was there in 1.6.0_24 (but I have used this way of getting orientation moveto many times before). I have now found a workaround: I'm using the unsigned applet script console. I select (mouse drag) what is in the upper panel, output area; press Ctrl-C, but it cannot be pasted

I can no longer copy text output to the Jmol script console (like "show orientation") This seems to be related to the update of Java. I have just installed 1.6.0_25, under WinXP I think there was recent discussion about this in MacOS. Any ideas will be welcome --
