[Friedrich Beckmann]

Update of bug #57274 (project pspp):

                  Status:        Cannot Reproduce => Confirmed

Follow-up Comment #2:

I still cannot reproduce the problem in the value label dialog. But I see a
problem in the data view window. To reproduce

=== Pasting in the sheet ===

0 Open psppire
0 Create three variable a, b, c, d
0 Select the Data view window
0 Create 4 cases by typing 5 <ENTER>, 6 <ENTER>, 7 <ENTER>, 8 <ENTER>
0 Select cell "a 1" (only one click) 
0 Select in the menu Edit->Copy
0 Select cell "b 1" (only one click)
0 Paste via menu: Edit->Paste. This works: 5.00 appears in cell "b 1"
0 Select cell "c 1"
0 Paste via key "CTRL V". This works: 5.00 appears in cell "c 1"
0 Select cell "d 1"
0 Paste via Right mouse click context menu->Paste

=> The cell edit opens and 5.00 is inserted in the text field. Typing <ENTER>
or clicking another cell or typing arrow keys will end the editing but the
cell is empty. I can make it appear by deleting all text that is right of 5.00
in the text field and then typing <ENTER>.

=== Pasting in the Cell Edit ===

When I click twice a cell, the cell edit opens. To reproduce the difference

0 Click twice on cell "b 2" => Cell Edit opens
0 Paste via menu Edit->Paste
0 Type <ENTER>. This works: 5.00 appears
0 Click twice on cell "b 3" => Cell Edit opens
0 Paste via key Ctrl+V
0 Type <ENTER>. This works: 5.00 appears
0 Paste Right mouse context menu->Paste
0 Type <ENTER>

=> This results again in an empty cell

Somehow the pasting via Edit menu and keys reformats the edit cell such that
only number string appears. I think Pasting via context menu keeps the spaces
and the dot in the cell which results in a an invalid number string. Leaving
edit then leaves an empty cell.

So the pasting via Edit menu and keys is identical and o.k. but the Right Key
Context menu paste is different and not so o.k.
