Copy/paste in Transaction Review window replaces buffer on save
Last modified: 2018-06-29 21:17:43 UTC
Please describe the problem: I have multiple scheduled transactions to be entered in the register. When the Transaction Review window displays the transactions I sometimes copy/paste the number given by the bank to the transactions. For example see the three transactions in this snapshot: http://kepler.englisch.us/~volker/G2_Testing/paste1.jpg There are two transactions without a number and one with a number. I copied the number from the first transactions and paste it to the third transaction: http://kepler.englisch.us/~volker/G2_Testing/paste2.jpg The buffer is correctly pasted to the number field. Now I click in the number field of the second transaction. The third transaction is saved and I am pasting the buffer content to the second transaction. Instead of the number I copied to the buffer a date (probably the date of the last blank transaction) is pasted to the number field: http://kepler.englisch.us/~volker/G2_Testing/paste3.jpg The content of the buffer got overwritten with this date. Using the Edit --> Copy/Paste menus has the same effect. Steps to reproduce: See above Actual results: A date intead of the original buffer content is being copied to the number field. Expected results: The original buffer content should be copied to the number field. Does this happen every time? Yes. Other information: I do not know if this is a register or a scheduled transaction problem. It is probably a register "feature" but I only noticed it because I am copy/pasting numbers to the scheduled transaction review window. I am running GC 2.0.99 from svn r14786 on 2006-09-02.
I double-checked the behavior in the register but the copy/paste in the register is working correctly. At least in the double-line display mode I am using.
Obsolete on trunk, post-15399 (sx-cleanup branch merge). This special register should no longer exist to be exhibit a problem in.
