After some fiddling I notice it only works if you don't deselect

I concur.  With this comment in mind I selected some text in Geany,
left-clicked where I wanted to paste it, and then tried a middle-click.
Nothing was pasted as the selection disappeared once the left-click was
performed.  However, a middle-cleck without first left-clicking resulted
in pasted text as expected.

I can paste from Geany to another app and the selection remains
highlighted even though Geany is not the focused app.  Pasting from
another app works so long as the text remains highlighted.

I'm using Geany 0.21 "Gromia" on Debian Sid with XFCE4 on one box and
Gnome3 Shell on a laptop.


Yep, it seems like Geany, Scintilla or GTK+ is clearing the X selection when the selection is cleared in the editor widget, strange.

Cheers,
