Re: objects not deleting - osx 10.8.3



Greetings, Hans Breuer!

Description of problem:
I installed Dia and xquartz yesterday on my mac and am not able to delete objects.

To repro:
Open dia
Select rectangle tool
Draw a rectangle on the diagram
Select the rectangle using the select tool
Press delete OR edit->  delete

How do you press Delete on a Mac?
Mine only has a Backspace key.

Fn+Backspace or Cmd+Backspace - I can't recall.
Show up the virtual keyboard, and try to press some modifiers. The Backspace
key will change from "<x]" (BS) to "[x>" (Del)

Strange thing is that Edit/Delete menu entry does not work either,
but at least I can confirm Dia behaves as you describe. Might be some 
strange logic not allowing actions to be performed, if they are bound to a 
key not available.

Behavior:
Object does not delete

Workaround is simple: use Edit/Cut to remove objects.

Expected behavior:
Object is deleted

Agreed. Would deserve a bug report i bugzilla to fixed before next release.
