#49444: xfig @3.2.5b_8: textfields do not accept text -------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: MacPorts@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.4 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: xfig | -------------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by lucchesi@…): Replying to [comment:2 reportaman@…]:
There is a hack that I found by fiddling with my mouse. I use a three- button mouse from logitech, and pressing the center scroll button does "paste" operation. Surprisingly paste operation (if done from mouse) works! So, here is what you do: a) Write down the text you want in some editor, b) Copy it. c) Go back to desired texbox in xfig, press on it. d) Use a 3-button mouse to do a paste operation. Paste from keyboard doesn't work. Hope that helps!
Thanks,
Aman
Even with a 2-button mouse the trick works, provided one has the "emulate three-button" set in the X11 configuration: just hold the option key and click to paste -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/49444#comment:4> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
