For some reason, I’m unable to copy & paste string values within synfig’s parameters area using keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+C & Ctrl+V. Synfig does not copy parameter names/values when Ctrl+C is pressed while editing these parameters & the same goes for Ctrl+V aswell. It copies the underlying layer instead of the text that’s selected within the textbox
Is there a way I can tell synfig to be context sensitive about copy paste?
Select the original parameter to edit it, select the content and right-click to obtain the edition context-menu
Thanks
It already works with mouse. Using mouse for copy paste is a pain. Would be better for productivity if we can use copy paste using keyboard
Also, a lot of normal keyboard bindings that work in most editors does not work in synfig
For eg.
These are minor issues but will have a significant productivity issues because people mouse is terribly slow at writing/editing text
But while up & down arrow move the focus out, we should instead move the cursor to the start & end of text like every browser does (or) atleast dont do anything while editing is in progress
Also, would be nice if F2 works when editing parameters. i.e clicking on a row & pressing F2 should open automatically focus on the value field in edit mode
All of these are really simple, yet developers gain a lot of productivity with these changes
Thanks again for your patience 
You know, there is an issue tracker in Synfig’s Github…
Instead of to spam here, you could report them directly, but check before if such tickets don’t already exist
