Hi John,
The major part of the problem is that copy/paste is handled by the
window manager not pgAdmin, so it's quite difficult for us to fix.
Jean-Michel has tested on the same platform as you (Kde 3/Redhat 9
iirc), and it works fine for him, so it's presumably something specific
to your configuration.
Anyone on -hackers have any ideas?
My first question would be what exactly is the method he is using for cutting/pasting? There are esentially two ways to copy/paste, one done largely by X and the other done by the window manager. The first involves highlighting the text to copy, then using the middle mouse button to paste. The other involves the Edit->Copy menu item. Which method is he using?
In a previous email John said:
Dave, I do 3 ways, Right click copy / paste, Ctrl C / paste and just
highlight copy / middle click paste. I even changed my background color thinking they might be pasting white but i get nothing.Regards, Dave
