I'm sometimes having trouble pasting text into Scribus 1.3.3.10 from
open office while editing a text frame.
I don't need any formatting information, just the text.
The sequence of events I've just seen as follows.
At some point a while ago copied and pasted a URL from a browser
to another package.
Start Scribus and edit a text frame.
In open office writer can do an Alt-EC to get the text to the
scratch pad.
Alt-EP into text frame, but the URL from prior use is inserted.
Did the Alt-EC in OOW again. Pasted into OOW to establish that
the material to be copied was in the scratch pad.
Alt-EP into text frame, but the URL from prior use is still
inserted.
Restarted Scribus.
Alt-EP into text frame, now the correct text is pasted.
Am I missing something obvious ?
Is this a known problem ?
I assume people are pasting in material from OOW all the time, so this
will a known bug or my stupidity ?
Cheers, J/.
