Tribble bug reported on 09/29/2020
When you copy and paste text from the chat window, the following spaces are removed from the text:
(a) the space after the date and time
(b) the space after the channel name
(c) the space after the colon following the account handle
Previously, these spaces were copied along with the rest of the text.
Steps to reproduce
1. Install build ST.105.20200810a.25 (SVN 261196). Then start the game client.
2. Press the Esc key. Click on the "Options" button. Then click on the "Chat" tab.
3. Turn on the options "Show Dates" and "Show Times".
4. Right-click on the chat window's text input box, and change the channel to [Local].
5. Enter the following lines into chat window:
Test-1
Test-2
Test-3
6. With your mouse, highlight the three lines you just entered in the chat window (including the date, time, channel name, character name, and account handle).
