[Virtualacorn-list] RISC OS 6 Draw problem

[Dave Symes]

Okay folks, new tests, but only for those with WinClip 0.22

We started out with this:
Can you please do it.

1) Draw an object in a Draw window, Ctrl-C then Ctrl-V

"Text area must end with a newline character."

2)  Take some text in either Zap or Edit, hilight it, do Ctrl-C , then in
a Draw window Ctrl-V 

"Text area must end with a newline character."

Quit WinClip, the Past works correctly.

3)  Re Run WinClip.
In Draw hilight an object, Ctrl-V then Ctrl-C

Now hilight a bit of text in a Zap (Whatever) window Ctrl-C then attempt
tp Ctrl-V into a new Zap, Edit, Ovation Pro, Imp Publisher, Pluto window
and all that's pasted is DrawÉ (E acute) as of the first five character of
a Drawfile header.

Quit WinClip, the Paste now works correctly.

Even more interesting...

4)  Totally quit VRPC then reboot. (So we can start clean)
Obviously WinClip running.

Open a Draw window.
Do *nothing* in that window

Hilight some text in Zap, Ctrl-C then Ctrl-V it into the Draw window, it
pastes okay.
This holds true for the other aformentioned apps.

But the moment you attempt a copy and paste in Draw, beit a text area or a
graphic object, up pops the message, and thereafter the other apps cannot
Copy/Paste from the global clipboard.

They can still all Copy/Paste locally.
ie: Something Ctrl-C in Publisher can be Ctrl-V in Publisher okay.
