Copy and Pasting Empty
PostSubject: Copy and Pasting   Copy and Pasting EmptyFri Sep 04, 2009 1:26 am

I've been having issues doing this on this forum the past few days. When I try to copy/cut something, sometimes it won't let me paste it in the text box for posting here. Ctrl + V doesn't work at all, ever, while right clicking and selecting "paste" only works sometimes. I noticed when I right click on highlighted text in the text boxes here that there isn't any "copy" or "cut" option, only "copy background". Naturally this makes copying my story and pasting it hard, and I can struggle for an hour or more waiting until it finally works.

I have no idea what that means or even if you can change it, but just thought I'd bring it to your attention Wink

Wow. I don't have quite that problem, but yes, it can be difficult. Something that might help is using the /A icon. That is for editing and it make a huge difference. However, colour and pictures and links WILL come through as well as other oddities, it is a DIRECT copy of whatever you want to copy.

I hope that will help you!
