Copying tags by dragging and dropping with Ctrl held down
Posted: Tue Sep 23, 2014 12:53 pm
Hi,
Maybe I'm missing something, but I cannot seem to get this to work as expected...
In other editors, I can select an element with its start and end tags e.g. <keyword conref="file.dita#entities/key_prodname"></keyword>, hold down the Ctrl key, and then drag the selected element to another location in the file to copy it. Being lazy I tend to use this technique a lot to copy text and/or elements in other apps. In Oxygen, I find it works if I select just a piece of ordinary text, or select text that includes an element. However, if it's just an element that's selected, the dragging action doesn't work with the Ctrl key held down. Can this be enabled please in Oxygen? (I find dragging works if I'm MOVING a selected element.) Thanks!
