Description Michele Di Bitonto 2019-09-01 13:23:39 UTC
Description:
If you want to copy a portion of the screen to a Writer document by using Snip&Sketch, nothing is copied.

Working with an old copy of Word 2007 (which I still have on my computer) it works

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open any application where to copy an image from
2. Open LibreOffice Writer
3. Go back to the first app and activate Microsoft Snip & Sketch to select an area on the screen to copy 
4. Clic Copy 
5. Go to Writer and press CTLR-V. Nothing happen.
   Additional info: By right clicking, the pop up menu shows the word "Paste", as if it understands there is something in the Cut&Paste area

Actual Results:
What happens : Nothing

Expected Results:
Expected : Paste done. 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
Computer : Lenovo T430
OpSys : Windows 10 Pro, version : 1809, Build : 17763.678

The problem appears both on Libre office 6.2.6.2 and the new 6.3

Thanks Oliver. I can confirm your comment. It works if you use keyboard shortcut: "Windows logo + Shift + S", which automatically saves the selected area.
So the bug persists by activating Snip&Sketch, then selct the area to coy and then clic the Copy icon

Dear Michele Di Bitonto,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword
