[Bug 43679] New: PDF-XChange's typewriter tool works only once
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43679 Bug ID: 43679 Summary: PDF-XChange's typewriter tool works only once Product: Wine Version: 2.16 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: matteo.guglielmi(a)gmail.com Distribution: --- When using the 'typewriter' tool of pdf-xchange, which is used to add text on pdf pages, it works only the first time it is used (typewriter box appears and text can be typed in).
From the second time on, the typewriter box appears but it is not possible to type in any text.
Also editing the first typewriter box does not work either. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Is it this program: https://www.tracker-software.com/product/pdf-xchange-viewer ?
From the second time on, the typewriter box appears but it is not possible to type in any text.
What do you mean by second time? Second box you create, or second time you select the tool itself, or what?
Also editing the first typewriter box does not work either.
Can't confirm, works for me. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43679 --- Comment #2 from Matteo Guglielmi <matteo.guglielmi(a)gmail.com> --- I'm using a licensed version of pdf-exchange editor (V 6.0 build 322.7 or any other previous build). Load a pdf file and select the typewriter tool. Click somewhere on the page... a box will appear with a blinking cursor inside it ready to accept your text from the keyboard. Type something. Now, click somewhere else on the page... a new box will appear but this time without the blinking cursor inside it.
From now on, any text you type on the keyboard (or paste from the clipboard) won't make it to that box... or any other box if you create newer ones... or even inside the first box, if you select it again.

I've been reporting on this forum numerous times about this bug and never got a proper answer in almost a year. Then I decided to open my own bug report for the same bug again thinking well... they will close it because it's a duplicate of the other reports. Instead, you came out of thin air and solved it in one day. Thank you Fabian! I can finally trash my virtual machines and use the editor directly on linux! If you can push that fix to AUR as well, that would be great... I believe many other users are having exactly the same problem.

because it's a duplicate of the other reports
Of what reports? I didn't notice a duplicate.
If you can push that fix to AUR as well, that would be great... I believe many other users are having exactly the same problem.
I left a comment on the AUR page, but I still hope we can get it fixed in wine. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43679 --- Comment #16 from Tommaso <tommaso.cucinotta(a)gmail.com> --- Ubuntu way: 0) [optional] ensure wine64 is out of the way, cleanup ~/.wine (64-bit and 32-bit ~/.wine seem incompatible with each other) sudo apt-get remove wine64 mv ~/.wine ~/.wine-bak 1) install wine32 sudo apt-get install wine32 2) download the Zip Installer from Tracker Software https://www.tracker-software.com/product/downloads/enduser/pdf-xchange-edito... 3) unzip it, to exctract PDFXVE7.exe: unzip PDFXVE7.zip 4) launch the installer: wine PDFXVE7.exe 5) add to your ~/.bashrc: alias pdfxedit='wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Tracker\ Software/PDF\ Editor/PDFXEdit.exe 2> /dev/null' 6) spawn a new shell, and enjoy your new alias: pdfxedit /path/to/file.pdf Note: after step 1), steps 2), 3) and 4) might be automatically doable through the web browser (when u download the zip, choose Open with Archive, then double click on the .exe, and it should be picked up by wine automatically) Note: with the 32-bit wine, most of the times this bug cannot be seen, but occasionally it pops out anyway.
