Hi :)
Thanks Graham :)  Glad to hear it's working for you now.

Thomas, do you know what the 3rd digit is?  That is the crucial one.
The first 2 digits tell us which branch you are using.  The 3rd one is
roughly equivalent to the "Service Pack" numbers used in MS products.

MS only do 3 but LO does about 6.  Each service pack adds increasing
stability and smooths things out more and more.  Many of us don't use
any branch until we can use the x.x.4.  In the same way many people
don't use any MS product until it reaches at least Service Pack 1 but
often nowadays not until Service Pack 2.  Xp itself had some fairly
serious problems and it's Service Pack 1 added some more.  Sp2 fixed
almost all that and Xp became really good as a result.  So, with MS
stuff a lot of people don't use it until it reaches Sp2, some use
things as early as Sp1.

On my own machine i try to use LO as soon as possible but for me
that's around x.x.1.  I'd like to be in at the beginning with x.x.0
but never quite make it.  On colleagues machines i tend to only
upgrade when i can give them x.x.4 to avoid them having any unexpected
surprises.  They miss out on all the new stuff but they seem to prefer
it that way.

Regards from
Tom :)

After sending my mail this morning I updated to LO 4.2.2.1 under Windows 7
and copy/paste works fine (as someone else has already reported).  So the
problem seems to be solely with 4.2.1.1.

Yes - any reason why you "need" 4.2.0, .1, or .2 pre-release?
I stick with the previous like till the new one gets at least to .3 or .4.
Works better for me that way.

XP 32-bit?  well it tested fine on the XP system I just tried it on.  I
have one on my "work bench" that I am waiting for a better DVD drive [over
the included CD only one].  XP-SP3.  A DELL actually.  The TB version is
the latest one from the Mozilla site.

Hi :)
I guess you missed that Thomas is on;

Xp 32bit, not sure what Service Pack but probably 3 or at least 2.
LO 4.2.? since it's 'recent' it could be the 4.2.1

Just not sure what version of Thunderbird.

Cor works a lot on the dev side of things so if he says it's fixed
then there is an extremely high chance it has been.  Unfortunately
that could mean the pre-release 4.3.x or some other pre-release
version.


Is this really an urgent problem for you or are you happy to wait
until after release in a few weeks time?  If you really want to
install multiple versions or have OpenOffice alongside then these
instruction might help

What version of Thunderbird, LO, and Windows[ if that is your OS] do you
have installed?  That might help.

On
      Thunderbird 24.3.0
      LO 4.1.5.3
OS is
      Linux Mint  16 with MATE

Works fine with "paste".
The formatted text was kept.

One post states that this has been "reported a zillion times".  So it
seems
to me that it might be "system specific", if one system works while
others
do not.

I deal with that myself.  My laptops upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10 just fine,
but
the desktop kept giving me too many errors.  Did that the last time I
upgraded the Os on the desktop.  It should have worked like the laptops
but
it did not.  That is another case of "system specific" of a issue with
one
system while 2 others running the same OS and having the same packages
installed would not work.

So, to be honest, "system specific" issues and "bugs" are hard to find
the
cause and correct the issue.  It could be something with the install of
Thunderbird and/or LO.  I know the last version of TB I had issues that
the
save version on a different OS does not have.  I know that some packages
run
well with Win7 Pro while I have issues with Win7 Home [both laptops].

I hope it gets fixed for your system.

Hi :)
Perhaps time to post a bug-report?  Thomas and Graham, have you tried
an earlier version of LibreOffice and found no problem there? Have
you tried pasting into a text-editor as an intermediary before posting
into the final app?  Are you all also on Win7 x64?

When you copy do you use the mouse right-click to do the copy bit or
keyboard short-cut or the edit menu?
Regards from
Tom :)

 If I were to try an earlier version, I would have to uninstall 4.2
first
... and I am too lazy for that now.
Yes, I tried copying the text portion into an editor and THEN into TH.
Works fine.
I am old and still on XP, 32 bit. But I have also a Win 7 note PC (also
32
bit) and can try it there.

Good afternoon
I recently upgraded to LO 4.2.xx
As far as I can recall, I have NEVER had any problems selecting text
portions (or all of it) in LO and then copy that portion into a TB
mail.
However, no matter what I try now, this does NOT work.
NOTHING happens.

But the same procedure works, using Openoffice Write, MS Word, text
editors (naturally), even copying from PDF files works ...

So, what is this all about?
How is this supposed to be "fixed"?

Thank you.
Thomas

Works for me in 4.2.2.1 on Win 7 x64 no matter which paste option I
use
in Thunderbird.
