Shortcut to copy text from logfile viewer by HuBa on 05-10-2008 at 03:07 PM

Currently there is no hotkey to copy the selected text to the clipboard in Logfile Viewer.

Ctrl+C or Ctrl+Insert should do this but it doesn't work.

I really need this feature!

I've used them before ^o)

Same, there must be something wrong with your keyboard or messenger or something. Does right clicking the selected text and choosing copy successfully copy it?

Yes, right clicking and choosing copy solves the problem, but I need the hotkey.

First make sure you have the latest version of Messenger Plus! (back in 2006 CTRL+C indeed didn't work in the log viewer and it was added later on... for the beta testers: see beta-forum, there are several threads about it)....

Can you use CTRL+C in MSIE?


RE: Shortcut to copy text from logfile viewer by HuBa on 05-11-2008 at 07:37 PM

Yes, Ctrl+C works in every MSIE window, except this Log-viewer.

I tried with WLM's own Log-viewer. It uses the same "Internet Explorer_Server" control. And Ctrl+C works here.

So it seems, it is somehow disabled in Plus' window on my computer.

You can see the version numbers in my signature. I always keep my applications up-to-date.

Then I wouldn't know why CTRL+C wont work for you (it does here and  with others), sorry.... :/

PS: the latest MsgPlus! build is 326 (not that it will fix this I think, but since you want to keep your apps always up-to-date... ;))
