Description Martin Oberhuber CLA 2007-02-23 13:23:52 EST 
Connect to remote SSH, expand files node.
Select a folder, choose right-click > properties.

In the property page, the various items of information can not be selected for copy&paste. I'm using this a lot in the normal Eclipse Resource Property Page so it should work for remote as well.

We might actually need this for our product so I'm tentatively tagging for 3.0.1

Hi,

It seems to me that it should be enhancement request and not minor severity bug. I don't have ability changing it.

Thanks,
Yevgeny

It's a bug because it works in plain Platform, so users intuitively expect it to work in RSE too. I initially made it minor because there is an easy workaround (manually type), but it's a very annoying usability issue so I'm going to make it normal.

Clearing target milestone to reassess.

Community Patches would be gladly accepted!
