its possible I am missing something, but doing the following in UGS works just fine
type $$
using the mouse, select ALL TEXT
type < CTRL > C
screen clears
open notepad
using mouse, note that RIGHT click PASTE is not enabled.
type < CTRL > V
@Menglor I don’t have gsender on this PC, Stephen, but in all other programs, to copy you type cntrl+c and to paste, you type cntrl+V. To select all text in the active window, you type cntrl+a.
You don’t simply type c, v or a. Could that be your issue?
edit: We were typing at the same time. I’ll open gsender a bit later, but as you say, “cntrl” must be in the copy and past commands, not just the letters.
@Menglor If you only need a “paper” version, you could always do a screen cap of the console window. That does you no good, of course, if you want to move the settings electronically from one application to another.
You should be able to copy text from the terminal using Ctrl + Insert in current builds. We’ll look at making the keybinds for copying a little more standard in one of the next releases.
@Menglor I’m certainly not here to make apologies for Sienci, and I agree that we are all accustomed to ctrl+c, but ctrl+insert works in all the other applications that I tried so maybe others are used to that combination.
But this isn’t the first issue where they deviate from common behaviors
I work as a professional software tester, I cant tell you how many developers I argue with about best practices.
The idea that “it works fine on my machine” has gotten. Under my skin for 25 years.
My raising these issues isnt to get my way, I am just trying to point out, that you have to think that other people are going to use it. …
I strive for standards in software. It’s what I do for a living
.Chris made a point in his the interview that he made yesterday and he’s striving to make it easy for people to adopt. It will frustrate people if they have to learn special surgery keys for certain things because they didn’t go with the standards
Basically I’m going to log him they don’t want to fix them that’s up to them
@Menglor I’m not arguing, either, Stephen, but the attachment that you provided includes ctrl+insert for copying. That’s not to say that I’ve ever used it, but it would seem to be a “common behaviour”.
