I'm running Ubuntu Hardy with Evolution 2.22.3.1 I use ctrl-backspace to delete a word preceding my cursor all the time when composing messages in gnome. However, I've noticed that the behavior of this shortcut also cuts that text and puts it in the clipboard. Applications such as openoffice or gedit, however, merely delete the word and leave the clipboard untouched. I've used tools such as glipper or parcellite to record clipboard history, but it's still annoying to track back through it to find the string I want that I literally cut using ctrl-x.
I'm not trying to tell you that ctrl-backspace shouldn't put text in the clipboard - I have no idea what people like. But I would like to remove this functionality for myself because I find it very annoying. I searched the mailing list and found that others have suggested looking at ~/.gnome2/accels/evolution or /usr/share/evolution/2.22/ui/evolution-mail-message.xml Does anyone know exactly how I would disable the cut functionality of the ctrl-backspace shortcut in Evolution running under Ubuntu 8.04? thank you very much, Matt _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
