Yes copy/paste works fine. The thing is all these triggers used to work perfectly in all applications, so there must be a reason they've just stopped.

I'm getting some other minor irregularities too... for instance Afloat (the windows management app) has stopped working in Safari, and my global keyboard shortcut for clipping text into Scrivener has stopped working in Mail.
