Note: I've just found this section of the FAQ at http://xfig.org/userman/frm_faq.html
There it says: "I cannot type anything into the popup dialogs in xfig when I use the fvwm window manager POSSIBLE CAUSE AND SOLUTION: There have been reports of this problem when using the fvwm window manager, possibly under Cygwin. Try mwm or twm or KDE. " Is this relevant? -- it is difficult to edit text in text fields - keyboard is ignored a lot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/529072 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
