1. I learned that last Meta-E can be repeated with Meta-Slash. However, I'm not the only one to believe it would be more intuitive, with no negative side-effects, for Meta-E to simply remember the last value instead of always defaulting to 'a'.
What do you mean always default to 'a'? Meta-E opens the Tag dialog with a combo box that contains all the valid tag names that can be inserted at cursor location. The valid tag names are extracted from the schema associated with the edited document.
I have tested this repeatedly, and Meta-C and Meta-X certainly clears the clipboard when nothing is selected. I think what it is doing is Copying/Cutting the current line. Is this an option in Preferences?
Yes, in version 9.1 Meta-C copies the current line when there is no selection. It was requested by other oXygen users. In version 9.2 we will add the option "Cut/Copy whole line when nothing is selected" for the text editor in Options -> Preferences -> Editor. With this option the function of cut/copy the whole line can be disabled. There is a conflict between your request and the request of other users about the Cut and Copy operations when nothing is selected. You are the only user that requested to clear the clipboard when nothing is selected in the editor panel. In fact I see that TextEdit which is a native Mac application and the native Windows applications that I tested do not clear the clipboard on Meta-C (Ctrl-C on Windows) or Meta-X (Ctrl-X on Windows) when nothing is selected. I did not test in other Mac editor applications. Do other users think that the Cut and Copy actions should clear the clipboard when nothing is selected? Regards, Sorin
