2. Copy
= Bug =
Formatting is lost, at least:
* hyperlinks are lost
* proper bullet characters (Unicode?) are replaced with ASCII or similar characters
* font colour is lost
= Screen shots - source of copy, and result of copy =
- the result of the copy is text, presumably text/plain.
= Environment =
* Diigo Toolbar 3.1.6.3
* Firefox 3.0.5
* Mac OS X 10.5.6, Intel.
* Diigo Toolbar 3.1.6.3
* Firefox 3.0.5
* Windows XP
== Result ==
Pass.
= Initial conclusion =
Bug affects Diigo Toolbar 3.1.6.3 in Firefox 3.0.5 on Mac OS X.
1. set aside Firefox for Mac OS X
2. use Safari, through the web (TTW), a diigo.com interface to extract annotations
3. ignore the 'Copy' button (bugged)
4. follow steps (6) through (10) at http://groups.diigo.com/Diigo_HQ/forum/topic/extract-annotations-copy-does-not-copy-to-pasteboard-8511
Postscript: an example produced by the workaround:
> 1. set aside Firefox for Mac OS X
That workaround is probably the best.
A 2001 bug in Mozilla core https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79864 probably blocks any Diigo solution for users of Firefox.
