Text Selection in abrowser 7.0 not working?

Where did you get abrowser 7.0? I thought in Dagda we have 6.02. With 6.02 I don't have the issues you described, tried all of the shortcuts and they work. Can also scroll the page with "end" and "home".

Hello!

I have Abrowser 7.0.1 on Trisquel Dagda, but I don't have the
issues you have. I'm able to select text with all those commands.
Also, I see "Cut", "Copy" and "Paste" on the "Edit" menu.

Try upgrading Abrowser from 7.0 to 7.0.1.

Edit is greyed out on my Abrowser 7.01 in the pull down menu. See attachment.

Cut, copy & paste is available in the right-click context menu though.

Issues with attaching files as well, missing text with checkboxes, doesn't seem to want to include attachments. Will link to the image attachments when I get to work.

No edit in menu

Attachment issue?

I have ABrowser 7.0.1 and the commands in the Edit menu are all greyed out, exactly the same as in your image. I have "Copy" and "Select All" in the right-click context menu, but no "Cut" or "Paste". Keyboard shortcuts work, selecting "Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages", in Preferences > Advanced > General, makes no difference, except allowing the cursor to move within the page as expected.

I've worked out how the Edit command functions. The Edit command icons become ungreyed when certain context-sensitive actions occur:

* When text is selected the copy icon becomes ungreyed and active.

* When the cursor is in a text field and text is on the clipboard, the paste icon becomes ungreyed and active.

* When copied text is pasted into a text field and then selected, all icons become ungreyed and active.

The command word "Edit" itself remains greyed out, so that might be a minor bug.

Dave Hunt, those key combinations work for me.

Magic Banana / BinaryDigit, yes you are correct, the Edit menu item remains greyed out but the options below still work.
