[fxruby-users] Copy-paste between FXTable and FXTextfield

[Philippe Lang]

Hi,

I'm using FXRuby 1.6.13 under Windows XP / Ruby 1.8.6.

I've noticed something strange when copying-pasting things between
FXTable cells, and FXTextfields.

----------------------------------------------

1) When copying the content of an FXTextfield, and pasting it into an
FXTable cell, everything works fine.

2) When selecting an FXTable cell, issuing a "copy" with the keyboard,
and pasting into the text field, the result is more or less correct,
except that two unknown characters are added at the end of the
textfield. The same problem happens when pasting into notepad.

3) When selecting an FXTable cell CONTENT (not the cell itself), issuing
a "copy" with the keyboard, and pasting into the text field, nothing
happens. The same problem happens when pasting into notepad.

----------------------------------------------

I think there is a good chance the "copy" command has got a bug with the
object FXTable. Is that correct?

Here is my test code:

----------------------------------------------

#!/usr/bin/ruby

require 'rubygems'
require 'fox16'

include Fox

class MyWindow < FXMainWindow
    
  def initialize(app)

    super(app, "Window", nil, nil, DECOR_ALL, 0, 0, 600, 350)

    # Menu bar stretched along the top of the main window
    menubar = FXMenuBar.new(self, LAYOUT_SIDE_TOP|LAYOUT_FILL_X)
  
    # File menu
    filemenu = FXMenuPane.new(self)
    FXMenuTitle.new(menubar, "&File", nil, filemenu)
    FXMenuCommand.new(filemenu, "&Quit\tCtl-Q\tQuit the application",
        nil, app, FXApp::ID_QUIT)
        
    # Field
    field = FXTextField.new(self, 15)

    # Table
    f = FXHorizontalFrame.new(self, LAYOUT_FILL_X|LAYOUT_FILL_Y)
    table = FXTable.new(f, nil, 0,
TABLE_COL_SIZABLE|LAYOUT_FILL_X|LAYOUT_FILL_Y)
    
    table.visibleRows = 3
    table.visibleColumns = 3
    table.setTableSize(3, 3)
    
    # Data
    field.text = 'copy me!'
    table.setItemText(0, 0, 'copy me!')
    
  end

  def create
    super
    show(PLACEMENT_SCREEN)
  end
  
end

if __FILE__ == $0
  application = FXApp.new("Attik System", "FXRuby Test")
  MyWindow.new(application)
  application.create
  application.run
End
