MouseEvent Plugin

[kgschlosser]

that is very odd. because it works for me. let me look into something i am wondering if i am running a modified version of EG that fixed an issue with the clipboard chain.

[kgschlosser]

is there anything special about how EG is running? as an example in a remote desktop session?

[Diz]

well... im using it as portable rather than installed... and i am running on stone age windows xp! these cant be the reasons though right?

I have found that removing the first line enables the paste function, under 0.4.r1722

but I get this when I move the mouse wheel.

Pasting works fine under 0.5.0, but gives this error.

Hope this helps.

In 0.5 does the error happen on paste or when you run it?

The error looks the same as 0.4 and you can't simply delete the first line. You can copy a tree item from 0.4 and paste it into a forum post for me to look at. But also I want you to copy and paste into your own. Tree and see if that functions properly. I want to take a look and see what is possibly going on. But also if it will paste into 0.5 properly. There is a need to make some changes to how the copy and paste works in new versions of EG. I don't think the current system does any version checking

[Diz]

ok... i have solved my paste always being greyed out mystery. turns out the issue is with the forum itself. whenever i copy from this forum i have always used that little 'select all' button at the top and i have noticed that this button always puts in an extra indent in from the left edge! this is why it wont paste directly into the tree. however, if i dont use that 'select all' button and drag the mouse over the text myself to copy it then there is no extra indent and the left edge is where it is supposed to be and then it will paste directly into the tree! so all along it was never even an eg issue but the forum that was actually at fault!

[kgschlosser]

it's a P.E.B.K.A.C. kind of a problem


Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair

[kgschlosser]

but now you know how to do the copy and paste thing. HOORAY!!! it is a convenient thing to be able to do.

@justahotbag2 let me know if this is also the solution for you as well.

[Diz]

between keyboard and chair? you mean like a user error? how is it my fault if the forums 'select all' button adds extra data into the copied text? how could anyone expect that to happen? problem is definitely NOT between keyboard and chair! problem is with the forum... like i already said!

[kgschlosser]

Chillll. I am messin with ya. But also I didn't say your chair. Someone at some point had to program the forum and it's wrong. So do me a favor and if you have an account on Github submit in issue for it there otherwise I may forget to fix it.

But now we know of the issue and how to work around it. And if you want to add a post in the bug reports section here and what the workaround is I am all for it. Just make the title something like Pasting XML into EventGhost

[Diz]

aah... fair point... u didnt say MY chair! i just assumed... lol

ok i will do the github thing and a workaround bug report shortly

[Diz]

ok... github issue submitted and workaround bug report posted

[kgschlosser]
