I can't paste my Video URL or Project Description text using CTL C to cut from a source, then CTL-V to paste into the Details page.
2) press Ctrl-c to copy
3) press Ctrl-v to paste
Those are native Microsoft windows operating system commands, and not specific to ARC.
Ctrl-x does work but not Ctrl-v does not
I have worked with windows for a very long time.
The instructions that appear if you click on the Video URL space states, "Paste the YouTube video URL of this robot. This video should contain the robot in action
So - How do I paste in my URL?
Here is an example video on how to copy and paste. Hope this helps!
First, I apologize for taking up so much of your time,
Second, I thank you very much for making the time to help me.
But-
Third, I still can't 'Copy and Paste into the Details window. I followed your videos,
(felt real dumb about forgetting about 'right click'), but the process does not work for me.
My machine is a Dell Laptop, the OS is Windows 7. I have closed my ARC session, restarted the computer, reloaded my ARC project, opened the Details window, and followed your videos. Still no copy and paste.
Thanks again for trying. For now, I will just type in the necessary data and wording.
As for your shortcuts not working, I googled and couldn't find very much. But I did find reference to a sticky keys option that may have accidentally been enabled, although the behavior sounds different: https://techpaul.wordpress.com/2007/10/24/keyboard-troubleshooting-is-sticky-keys-on/
Lastly, a good old power down and power on is sometimes useful. Power off is usually better than a reboot when hardware is the cause.
Power off/on did the trick!
Thanks so much for your great EZ products, software and forum.
