Something funky going on when copying text with mouse?

(1/1)

Hi

OS: Ubuntu - Dapper Beta
Build: Apil 28 2006 (2395)

Just noticed something wierd by accident that is connected to copying text with the mouse. Not that I use the mouse for that purpose, but I forgot to disable the touchpad, and suddenly mouse cursor was stuck with the "paste symbol". No window-interaction with the mouse was possible after this. I managed to fix the problem by accessing the file meny with ALT - F.

How to I reproduced this behavior :

- Start Codeblocks
- Click "New FIle" and save as "Untitled1"
- Type "This is a test" in the first line (no enter)
- Mark the word "test" with the mouse.
- Drag the selected text down to the middle of the editor and drop it there. "test" have now been appended.
- If you click left mousbutton at the same location as above you will append another "test" at the end of the file.
- Keep clicking, and the mouse cursor with at some point be stuck with the "paste symbol", but without the "document icon".

Makes any sense? :)

You can fix this by pressing ALT - F, but if you do it another 2 or 3 times, Codeblocks hangs.
The CPU load is normal in all cases.

I think this is a scintilla problem only on GTK.....

EDIT:

I don't know if it has something to do with this or not.....  :?
