[Bug -> somehow disappeared] Copy/paste of pages broken since last version or versions

Post by peter_altherr »

I regularly copy individual pages from an existing document into a new one by selecting a page in the preview area on the left and right-clicking -> Copy to copy this page to the clipboard. Then I go to File -> New document -> From clipboard. Now I get the error message that there is no suitable data in the clipboard (PDF-XChangeEditor Version 10.6.0.396). PS: I found a workaround for this (left click the page while holding STRG and drag it to an empty place in the open documents tab area. This works only if multiple documents are open or the box in Settings -> General -> Control Tabs and Windows -> Hide Tab bar if only one document is open is not checked.)

Hello peter_altherr,

May I ask for a screenshot of the error message?

And one more question.

May I ask if your computer is connected to a company network/server, or it is an unmanaged standalone workstation?

Hello Dimitar,

a strange thing happens. I have faced this issue at the same time on two machines of mine. Both unmanaged stand alone ones. One physical machine and one virtual machine accessed by a RDP session. Now i want to reproduce the error for taking the screenshot and copy/paste of pages from the page preview pane to a new document works as expected. So all i can do is say thank you for the support.

Best regards
Peter

I think an update fixed this.

I hope this doesn't happen again.

Regards.
