Where's Copy?

October 02, 2007, 05:20:54 PM

I’m an avid “right click menu” user and the “right click menu” on this site is missing “Copy”
What’s up with that? Got Select All and Paste. What did you mod’s do with “Copy”

I have to use Ctrl/Insert with my left hand... my left hand is usualy busy!

(and it’s none of your business what it’s busy doing!)

I can copy/paste at will in FireFox. Haven't tried IE.

Seems like a browser issue. Or a PEBCAK problem. :flip:

We didn't do anything to disable that function. Did you try highlighting something first, then right-clicking on it? What exactly are you trying to copy, text or an image or both?

well I'll be ed... it's IE 7 that I use at work... I have Firefox at home and Firefox does have copy. all this time I was thinking it was just this site.

I have iespell at home so i spell check my messages right here as I type them.. but at work (I'm a computer programmer in a tool and die shop that can't type so I copy and paste a LOT) I sometimes start a message on the site in the editor then copy and paste it all into an outlook window to spell check before i post. I don't do that at home because I have IeSpell.

Ok all good, sorry to bother you, go back to ignoring me now.

I always wondered why your posts text ended up black on my screen instead of gray. I use the gunmetal theme and that makes everyones text gray.
