I've sent an email to report this missing feature but as I'm not sure it was sent (no confirmation message), I'm posting it again on this forum.

I've noticed that the "Copy text to Clipboard" feature is missing from the latest version. I downgraded to 1.5.3 and it works, I can Copy a received text to the clipboard through DropCopy. Is there a reason why this feature is missing now? It's very useful.

Thanks in advance for your answer, with my best regards,

we're not sure why you are experiencing this – the feature is still there in the 1.6.x builds.  The only change that has occurred to this functionality in a long time is the addition of an option to open the incoming message in a web browser if the message appears to be a valid URL…

 

perhaps grab the 1.6.3 beta and try that?

Hi, thanks for your reply. Strange… I'm working with Snow Leopard and my friend is using Leopard, maybe this is a system compatiblity problem. Has someone else reported this yet?

I'll give the Beta a try. Unfortunately the link doesn't work. All I get is a blank page with this message: "Error 404 – Not Found".

By the way, I'm using Safari as a web browser and I'm having a hard time relocating the very left side of the message I'm typing right now. A narrow portion goes underneath the white margin. It's a problem because I need to read the numbers to do the math and the first one is hidden…

Ok, if I paste my message back it works.

Hi, thank you for sending me the 1.6.3 beta and sorry for that triple post (my answer wasn't displaying on the forum…).

I've tried the beta but the "problem" still remains. I realised we're talking about the behaviour as DropCopy 1.6.x seems intelligent because if I send a valid url, the "copy to clipboard" option isn't available. Maybe I should have explained that sometimes I want to be able to also "copy to clipboard" even for a valid url, for example a ftp download I want to paste in an email.

I can copy the url from the window, that's another option but I like to have the choice between "open in borwser" and "copy to clipboard".
