MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / September 2004HTML Fragment
web I have inserted several Code Fragments into my site but the 'Insert HTML Fragment' option will not allow me to cut & paste. When I right click in the Properties box I only get 'What's This?' Can this be changed? It's a pain having to type everything in manually. see the FAQ http://www.publishermvps.com/Default.aspx?tabid=30  SignatureDavid Bartosik - MSFT MVP www.publishermvps.com > web I have inserted several Code Fragments into my site but the 'Insert > HTML [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > this > be changed? It's a pain having to type everything in manually. Too dependent on the mouse and visual cues? But isn't that the whole point of windows and its interface? Control V for paste is counterintuitive and hard to remember. I love how you MVPs make excuses for oversights on the part of M$. Why exactly is it a good idea to not have the normally redundant choices for pasting in the html code fragment utility found almost everywhere else in Windows apps? Why have they not fixed this omission? >see the FAQ >http://www.publishermvps.com/Default.aspx?tabid=30 > Too dependent on the mouse and visual cues?

I haven't forgot, and it's not counter-intuitive. I use CTRL+C and CTRL+V *all* the time because it is actually more time consuming using the toolbar buttons or the edit menu. In fact, I use the keyboard 95% of the time for my computing, and let my mouse collect dust. > I love how you MVPs make excuses for oversights on the part of M$. > Why exactly is it a good idea to not have the normally redundant choices for > pasting in the html code fragment utility found almost everywhere else in > Windows apps? Why have they not fixed this omission? First of all, there is NO problem recommending keyboard shortcuts, as they are quicker. Secondly, David has been trying to push through a request for Publisher 12 to include copy/paste buttons for the Insert HTML dialog box based on feedback from these forums. Finally, David has supplied the answer to the posters question. Why do you have to be so quick to insult or belittle MVP's?

My comments stand on their own two feet; I need not explain or restate them. Suffice it to say the normal Windows redundancy for pasting should be in the HTML code fragment. What possible excuse can M$ have for that omission, and for not fixing that omission given all the tine they have had to do so? And what possible reason would you have to make excuses for M$? Can you say "M$ made a mistake?" Cone on, I know you can say it... >> Too dependent on the mouse and visual cues? But isn't that the whole point of >> windows and its interface?

I didn't really think you could bring yourself to say M$ has screwed up with Publisher for webpage applications. >> My comments stand on their own two feet; I need not explain or restate them. > >Ditto. > I didn't really think you could bring yourself to say M$ has screwed up with > Publisher for webpage applications. This is the No Spin zone. :-) Try again.
