Copying a .htt file within jalbum

When copy/paste a .htt file, information like title, keywords and text is missing in the copy.
When doing the same thing with a whole folder, containing a .htt file it keeps the info.
Am I missing something? It used to work before.

Can't quite follow you there.
What I do is - right click and select new page/empty page. Then fill in title and some keywords, for an example. Then copy & paste that file. The copy looses the text in title & the keyword.

When you copy and paste an ordinary object, like a JPG, the .info file is copied with it, so things that are stashed there are duplicated. When you copy and paste an HTT file, the .info file is not copied with it.
My gut reaction is that it should be, but I haven't thought through the implications of doing that.

That was the case before. Something has changed.

Try this tool instead, I misread the post before.

It was designed to copy data from one project to another but should work for a duplicate template elsewhere in the same project. |

Well I could perhaps do like that, but I have done ordinary copy/paste hundreds of times and now it does'nt work as it should/used to anymore.
I claim this is a bug or maybe a deliberatal change in Jalbum.

Yes. That is also an annoying thing and takes up unnecessary time.

I have to look into that. It wasn't an intentional change.

I have a follow up for this issue. Also folders loses their title capitals when I for example moved a file and/or copied to a folder, but not always. I suspect it's connected to the original problem.
Noticed, by coincidence, that in one folder suddenly all capital letters got "small" (don't know the correct english word). For an example a folder named "AAA" becomes "aaa". When going through all my folders I found out it wasn't the only one. The folders contains one ore more .png and one ore more .htt file.
Having a hard time to reproduce it so I can't explain exactly when it occurs. I managed to do so once but when I had a pencil to write the steps how to do it I had no luck.

In daily use, "capital" and "small" are the usual words:

In the IT world, however, it's usually "uppercase" and "lowercase," and what you're encountering is a "casing problem."
Why a "case?" It's from typesetting. The typesetter had a wooden box - a case - with the lead letters in them. The capital letters were in the upper part of the case, and the small letters were in the lower part. |

Thanks! I didn't know that. A free history lesson is always appreciated.
