  • Browser: Icecat 60.3.0esr 64bit
  • OS: GuixSD GNU/Linux-libre

Description

When I paste something like some lines from IRC into Riot I lose the formatting of all the lines. It gets squished together.
2019-01-26-150717_728x64_scrot
2019-01-26-150724_475x138_scrot

Steps to reproduce

  • find some multi-line text to copy
  • copy it either as full lines with a triple click and drag or as a block select with ctrl-shift click and drag
  • middle click to paste into riot or ctrl-v if you copied to secondary clipboard in previous step

Describe how what happens differs from what you expected.

I expect it to continue looking like it does in my first screenshot. Instead I've got to go through the text slowly and hit shift-enter at all the spots where it was supposed to have a new line just to get the formatting back that was already there before.

There's a lot of stuff that could be going wrong outside of riot here - if this text were copied from a terminal, etc. I haven't been able to reproduce it with any multiline text I've found.

After discussing the problem with some people, I changed this about:config setting to true and it fixed some pasting issues with riot, the multiline problem in particular.
dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled;true
It was false by default in Icecat.

I've not heard of this affecting anyone else, and this setting is true by default in firefox

It's false by default in IceCat.
