Bug#497669: glabels: Ctrl-a in text object properties text area does not select all text

[Julien BLACHE]

Package: glabels
Version: 2.1.3-3
Severity: normal

Hi,

When editing the text of a text object using the text area in the text
tab of the text object properties panel, hitting Ctrl-a doesn't select
all the text inside the text area.

Ctrl-a is a standard binding for "select all" and it really should work
that way in this context too.

The current behaviour breaks standard expectations and is probably
contrary to the GNOME HIG in addition to that.

Thanks,

JB.
