Can't drag/cut/copy after version 2.6.1

Post by ABlack »

Help! After downloading NWE 2.6.1, I was disappointed to find that in all of my files, I can no longer drag, cut or copy sections of text. I can copy the full document and edit passages/sections in Word, but I can find nothing in the Nisus menus or the help file that describes this problem. I did not knowingly lock the files to read only. I am working on a G5 iMac pre-Intel. Thanks in advance.

There is a bug with drag and drop in 2.6.1, but it only affects tables. Eg: drag and drop into a table cell is broken.

I saw the email you sent to support and you report that this same bug also appears in TextEdit. Because of that I might suspect that you installed some kind of "haxie" that could affect text operations across the whole text system. Do you recall recently installing anything that promised to add a feature to all your OSX applications?
