When I have some text in a Message Composition windows,
then select that text, then copy it, then paste it in
another application (such as a text editor),
the formatting is messed up, with all multiple spaces
collapsed into a single space, as if the text were HTML.
E.g. copy the following text to a Message Composition window:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=625961#c13
1 2 3 4 5
2 3 4 5
3 4 5
4 5
5
000000
1 1 1 1 1 1
2 2 2 2 2 2
3 3 3 3 3 3
4 4 4 4 4 4
5 5 5 5 5 5
Then copy the text from the window.
And paste in Notepad, it comes out like this:
1 2 3 4 5
2 3 4 5
3 4 5
4 5
5
000000
1 1 1 1 1 1
2 2 2 2 2 2
3 3 3 3 3 3
4 4 4 4 4 4
5 5 5 5 5 5
which is very reminiscent of an old bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=625961
Can someone else replicate the issue?
Are you aware of an open bug for this issue?
Regards.
It works if you compose in HTML mode.
Yes, but not everyone uses HTML like me. ;) Anyways, it was easy to
reproduce in my SeaMonkey v2.39 in Windows XP Pro SP3. Voted since I use
plain text formats a lot. :)
