Description hlovatt 2004-11-29 01:36:33 UTC 
I find that if I select text and either type
ctrl-c or use the right mouse button I can't copy
text from an output tab to the clipboard. Nothing
happens, the clipboard remains unchanged.
Comment 1 Jan Chalupa 2004-11-29 15:28:13 UTC 
Strange. Works for me with Windows NT, JDK 1.5.0. I can select text in
the output tab using both Ctrl-C and righ-click + Copy and paste it
into Notepad.

Please try again and if possible, provide exact steps to reproduce the
problem.
Comment 2 hlovatt 2004-11-30 01:52:54 UTC 
If I run a Hello World program and then highlight "Hello" (it is
highlighted in blue) in the tab "Output - HelloWorld - I/O" then
either ctrl-c or right copy the clipboard doesn't pick up Hello.

I am using NB 3.6, J 1.4.2, and Windows 2000.
Comment 3 Jan Chalupa 2004-11-30 06:42:59 UTC 
Ok, I think I managed to reproduce it in 3.6. It's not reliably
reproducible, but sometimes Ctrl-C (Copy) doesn't seem to pick up the
selected text. It usually works for me on subsequent attepmts.

The 4.0 implementation of output is different and Ctrl-C seems to work
fine there.
Comment 4 Milos Kleint 2005-01-05 07:55:12 UTC 
based on the evaluation on jchalupa, I'm moing the issue to
terminalemulator subcomponent which is the placeholoder for old output
window bugs.
the new output window coebase seems to work ok.
