Bug ID: 392356
Summary: Text tool: issue with pasting text
Product: krita
Version: 4.0
Platform: MS Windows
OS: MS Windows
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Tool/Text
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: phi...@gmx.net
Target Milestone: ---
I am starting to use the new text tool to letter comics.
We need to have consistency across a page, with one, perhaps two (rarely more)
fonts (family, size, etc.).
Perhaps someday we will have a way to save (tag?) a predefined set of choices.
Meanwhile, I have two workarounds:
- Copy the generated SVG to some place, so that I can paste it back in the
tool. Good idea to expose the source, BTW.
- And include a text sample in the page model, so that I can copy & paste it
where I need it, and edit it. (BTW, a shortcut to duplicate a vector shape,
including text, would be nice.)
When I edit it, I can do a select all (Ctrl+A) and type the new text, it will
keep the settings.
But if I paste a pure plain text instead, it reverts to MS Shell Dlg 2 font
with default size, etc.
Pure plain text: in clipboard inspector, there are only UNICODE TEXT, LOCALE,
TEXT and OEM TEXT tags, no HTML Format nor Rich Text Format or similar rich
text paste format. (Tested, you don't support the latter, I won't blame you...)
There is a simple workaround: if I select all but the first or last character,
I can paste while preserving the formatting, then I delete the extra char.
Side note (probably not worth a bug of its own): the SVG source editor reacts
strangely to Ctrl+mouse wheel: it decreases size when scrolling forward, which
is the reverse of the behavior of all other softwares (eg. browsers).
Another side issue: I don't know if that's the expected behavior, but I have to
triple click on the text with the text tool to open the text editing window.
Would expect a single click, or at least a double one.
