Re: Copy Shortcut

I do use both Shift-Home & Shift-End for highlighting one line and then pressing Ctrl-C to copy.

However I'm talking about highlighting multiple lines.

Re: [WDSCI-L] Copy Shortcut






Well I figured out the issue.
When the cursor is on the line number and not in the actual source, Ctrl-C
will not copy the highlighted text. When the cursor is in the text and
you press Ctrl-C, it copies the highlighted text.

It sure would be nice if Ctrl-C would work when the cursor is moved into
the line numbers. When highlighting a block of text with the mouse, from
right to left, it drops the cursor into the line number unless you are
very careful about stopping the cursor at the position of the 1st
character. I don't know about others, but when I copy a block of text
anywhere else, it's usually a wave of the mouse for me (not requiring fine
manipulation). But, maybe I'm being picky.

I just realized that my RDp has the copy shortcut set as ctl-insert
instead of ctl-C. Has it always been like that, or did I somehow
accidentally (by way of another shortcut) switch my copy shortcut. I went
into Preferences and couldn't find where the setting is to modify the
shortcuts. The only time I had gone in there was to make Shift-Ctl-A
unique to opening a member.
