[cal] Listview - Copy Paste is not working
Last modified: 2013-11-20 23:58:25 EST
Description of problem: Copy/Paste is not working in ListView, while it is working in case of Fedora. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evolution-mapi-0.28.3-6.el6.x86_64 evolution-help-2.28.3-10.el6.noarch evolution-data-server-2.28.3-10.el6.x86_64 evolution-2.28.3-10.el6.x86_64 How reproducible: Everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1. run evolution (tested in gu_IN locale) 2. goto Calander 3. check listview 4. Press anykey and Paste any data Actual results: Text is not pasted Expected results: it should pasted Additional info: DayView, it is working
It took me some time to discover that Ctrl+Ins/Shift+Ins works, but Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V doesn't. But it's same as in Fedora for me, there Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V doesn't work either, their are bound to actions in Edit menu, and tight to whole event, not the text in side editing widget. How did you try to paste the text that it worked for you in Fedora and not in RHEL6, please?
It sounds like this may be fixed upstream, so if we can locate the patch for it then we can look at backporting it. Conditional NAK.

Since RHEL 6.1 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as an exception or blocker. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
It might be good to retest with 2.32.3, when it's available (see comment #3).
(In reply to Milan Crha from comment #6) > It might be good to retest with 2.32.3, when it's available (see comment #3). I tested this with evolution-2.32.3-2.el6, and I can paste text in the List View, when using Ctrl+V or Shift+Ins, if the clipboard contains text. Ctrl+C is tricky, because it adds whole component to the clipboard, thus on paste is added the same event again. Is that basically the issue you claim about?
(In reply to Milan Crha from comment #10) > Is that basically the issue you claim about? Err, I did reread the whole bug and I see the answer. The 2.32.3 works same wrong as 2.28.3. The list view should use Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V the same way as it uses Ctrl+Ins and Shift+Ins, when editing text in the list view.
Created attachment 763896 [details] backported upstream patch This is backported upstream patch. I will include it in one of the next builds, when I have more patches ready.
