Yes, there was a patch here in NetBeans 15 which I think improved the situation a lot. Now you can usually just Ctrl+C again, which so far has always resolved the problem for me. (Instead of restarting the IDE.)
The patch was https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/4774 , which was a follow-up on https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/4572 . I kept a diary of cut/paste problems and their resolution for several weeks. -- Eirik Great! There was a patch in NetBeans 15 that made the copy/paste bug much less of a problem. -----Original Message----- From: Patrik Karlström <pat...@trixon.se> Sent: Monday, December 5, 2022 9:18 AM To: dev@netbeans.apache.org Subject: Re: Copy Paste still an issue There are a couple of threads on this by now and I'm not sure if the following "semi-solution" has been posted. A couple of weeks ago the clipboard went bust on me in NB 15. I tried a couple of things and I got it working again without restarting NB. Today it happened again but this time in NB 16, this gave me a chance to reduce and verify my steps. The only thing I needed to do to make the clipboard working again was Hit CTRL-X in NB without any selection being made (cut the whole line). Perhaps CTRL-C works too.
